Beat Monaco Draw Winner of Porto/Basel, Win That Draw Juventus, Beat Them Final vs. Barca/Bayern/Real, Win That (Somehow). UEFA Champions League 2014/15 Winners. Easy
I'll take that too, though it'd feel so much sweeter to dick up one of those 3 in the final. Atletico would be a hell of a challenge as well.
If we do get to the last 8, we are almost certainly getting a real contender for the CL. Bayern, Chelsea or Real. And to be honest, if we beat Monaco, we should knock out a big team. As a wise man said "to be the man, you've gotta beat the man. Woo."
Well we had very good odds of facing one of the big sides in the last 16 and avoided them, I think we have a good chance of drawing Juventus-Dortmund or Basel-Porto in the next round, it's not in the realms of the impossible. Though if we got one of the big sides, I'd prefer Athletico, even though they're a top top side, Spanish league Champions, and UCL runner ups who were very unlucky to lose out, I don't know, still feel we have a better chance of beating them than the other 3 elite teams in the competition of Madrid-Barca-Munich. I think we could take Barca, but Madrid-Munich really are on a different level.
Yeah, but I think we've ridden our luck pretty far this time. I think we have a decent record in the 1/4 finals. It's shameful we haven't gone passed the last 16 for over 4 seasons. I know we've had tough opposition but we've come so close too many times. By the time you reach the last 8, I feel there are no easy teams. Easier opposition but anyone can get knocked out. If we have a fully fit squad I truly believe we can beat anyone on their day. Just not Chelsea as Arsene seems to do poorly against Moan-reen.
Honestly think we can beat anyone left in the CL on our day, its just our ability to beat Chelsea, Bayern, Real and Barca over 2 legs that I doubt.
Pretty good run of games but at this level, all these games will be tough. If we can play to level that we are capable of, then we can go very far. We have the big players and anything can happen on the day. Our best bet is the FA cup but I'm feeling more confident in Europe. I do feel that we have a level or two that we can go up and maybe playing against the European elite will bring that.
Whenever we have a bad day, the Spuds always come up with something to cheer us up. They are the gift that keeps on giving
English clubs have been utter ****e in Europe for a while now, only the Chelsea scum doing well on the pitch, but disgracing themselves off it. If we are not careful, we could actually lose a place in the CL if the coefficient takes a hammering.
You make a good point, but fortunately we will finish 2nd this year and 1st next, so let the others worry about coefficients
The Liverpool game has gone to pentatly shoot out. Got to love a pentaly shoot out, separates the weak from the strong.
