    I wonder if you’ll still feel like this if Liverpool were to win it...

    That De Bruyne lad was a waste of space, too.

    They won't. They can cause anyone problems but Real or Bayern won't be nearly as naiive as City have been.

    I really hope you’re right. But we took 4 points out of 6 against Real and looked fairly comfortable. I can see Liverpool beating them too.

    Real have been a different team since the group stage. La Liga slipping through their fingers so pathetically has galvanised them and they have put in 3 superb performances since qualifying below us. Bayern are my tip to win it outright though.

    Blinding performance by Roma, fully deserved. Dominated Barca.

    Not that we're short of a good CB but Fazio just looks a different player, been a ****ing monster since signing with them, shame he never found consistency here when you see how he's playing at the moment.

    The referees facked over £ity tonight, and last week at Klanfield with that first goal which was offside, but it`s no surprise with Pool involved.

    Please. Spurs fans have eradicated that season from our collective memories. We just skip straight from the 2-3 comeback at your ****ehole to Gareth Bale making AVB look like a competent manager. Nothing of any significance occurred in between.

    I actually wouldn't mind Pool winning the thing if their fans weren't so bloody annoying.

    To be fair, they've been a different animal in the Champions League. Looked so much sharper and motivated. Their form generally has picked up a lot since the turn of the year.

    Liverpool are capable of beating them for sure, but if they do, it won't be as straightforward as it was when you played them.

    There's some ageing super-powers in Juve, Barca, Munich and Real. One of them has now gone. Juve will go next. Liverpool's pace could beat any one of them. With our pace and power, we should still be in this and would been in with a chance, too.

    I don't really care if they win it or not, to be honest. All I'm saying is don't be so sure Real or Bayern will put them to the sword. They've got some serious firepower in their team and their defence has improved tenfold since Van Dijk's arrival. None of the remaining teams look unbeatable. Liverpool have just as good a chance as the others to win it IMO.

    Real have Ronaldo.
    The rest don't.
    That might be the difference. Look at his stats in the CL.

    True but City really didn't test them whatsoever across both legs. Just read on the beeb they managed 4 shots on target in 180 mins of football. Far too much pissing about sideways passing and relying on Sane and Silva to do everything.

    I agree Pool have improved at the back but am of the opinion that this is more down to klopp trusting the youngsters Robertson and Alexander-Arnold over the clown Moreno and overrated Clyne. With proper full-backs they are able to commit more players forward down the centre.
