    I think Real would be easier than Atleti or Bayern.
    With or without Cristiano.

    What you think?

    Athleti in my opinion just because the other two are powerhouses.

    It's the semi finals though, they're all going to be incredibly hard for every team.

    want to avoid Atletico. Against Real and Bayern, we can play to our strengths as underdogs and hit on counter. Jose is the master of orchestrating results against these types of teams. Atletico, on the other hand will be strong, organised, and resolute, and both sides will cancel each other out - they are the type of team we tend to struggle against.

    Real are probably the easier one's to beat,Dortmund showed that the Real defence is not good,with a decent striker they could have scored at least 6

    I guess thats the issue <laugh>

    If I were a Chelsea fan - it wouldn't bother me who we got at this stage. Anything can happen - even without a decent striker ;)

    Think Munich will be wary of drawing us

    The fact no one can really agree and you can make cases for and against all sides shows how competitive this year is. There was a period for a few years when it was all about avoiding Barca.

    Seems odd we'd be below AM given our players and manager have been their before. However we were 4th favs in 2012 and so were Liverpool in 2005.
