Champions League 2017/18

You'd rather have Barca or Real than Bayern?

Yep, I feel you could get at either of those two more than Bayern under Heynckes.

Barca have lost one match this season.

Barca have lost one match this season.

No one has really tested them in the league tbh, but if Espanyol can beat them, certainly Liverpool can.

City had lost none. Then they played us. We're fucking immense and our name is already on the cup!

Didn't they lose to Shakhtar?

 

[Pagnell]

Shush, I don't need a child correcting me. I have enough of that at home.

Need to get admin to find out who this Pags impersonator is, he's too optimistic!

 

[Pagnell]

I admit, there might have been an element of sarcasm in that post.

That was a dead rubber though, we beat them for the first time when it counted. (We'll forget about the loss to Swansea immediately afterwards though! )

Just saying, you haven't beat Cork City who have only lost 1 in 2018...

Could see our front line struggling in that one, I'd rather take our chances with Barca tbh.

Alan Bennett >>>>>>>> Salah + Firmino + Mane

 

[SALTIRE]

Can't wait for this draw, so excited, it's been too long this!

 

[mistermagic]

Ok so I'm hoping for:

Roma-Liverpool
Real-Juventus
Sevilla-Bayern
Barca-City

Please come true. I just want to See Barca-City tbh the rest is ok either way.

I want Bayern/Liverpool. Think it would be a great tie. Also, I just know RM will draw the weakest side left, Roma. That's how lucky they are.

 

[Bilo]

Today at 12 yes!

 

[SALTIRE]

Eugh City.

 

[SALTIRE]

Well we can win the tie, but was wanting a big side, not a monied nobody.

 

[G-Dragon]

Ffs city, we play them every year. Rather we got real or Barca.

 

[SALTIRE]

Don't think home advantage in the second leg helps them though tbh as there'll be more Liverpool fans at the Etihad than City when it gets round to it, and even then they are hardly a stirring crowd with that shit 'Blue Moon' song being sung once every half hour.

 

[G-Dragon]

They have United match ( to win the league) sandwiched between our cl games. Then spurs after. Hopefully that helps us.

 

[Dirk]

You'll get one of them in the semi-final

Bayern vs Sevilla. That's an ok draw. They should advance but I bet that's what ManU Fans thought too in the last round.

 

[Lionel Messi]

BARCELONA, Bayern, Juventus and Manchester City will be the last four.

 

[Renegade]

Liverpool vs City is a great tie, but I'd rather they'd have been kept apart as it's made the rest of the draw rather predictable/boring. Madrid vs Juve is a good tie, but we've seen it so many times in the last few years. I reckon Bayern and Barcelona will walk through their opponents. Zzzz.

Liverpool/City vs Madrid/Barcelona would have been brilliant.

 

[Pagnell]

Fuck it, we've shown we can beat them this season already. Just need to do it again. Both teams will be well up for it.

 

[Lionel Messi]

Messi versus Sevilla, 31 games (23W 4D 4L) 29 goals, 13 assists
Messi versus Real Madrid, 37 games (17W 8D 12L) 25 goals, 14 assists
Messi versus Manchester City, 6 games (5W 0D 1L) 6 goals, 3 assists
Messi versus Bayern Munich, 5 games (2W 1D 2L) 4 goals, 2 assists
Messi versus Juventus, 5 games (2W 2D 1L) 2 goals, 1 assist
Messi versus Roma, 2 games (1W 1D 0L) 2 goals, 1 assist
Messi versus Liverpool, 2 games (1W 0D 1L) 0 goals, 0 assists

 

[Pagnell]

Yeah. We get it. You have frequent dreams of Messi that give you a tent.

 

[Bilo]

Fuck it, we've shown we can beat them this season already. Just need to do it again. Both teams will be well up for it.

City will keep their players well rested though, which makes them clear favorites in my eyes. To be honest, aside from Barcelona there's not another team that I would have considered tougher for us to draw than City.

They are definitely favourites. And so they should be given the obscene money spent.

Klopp on Champions League draw: "I think it's an absolute dream draw... for all Manchester United fans!"

 

[epic73]

Isn't it the opposite of a dream draw? It guarantees that one rival goes through.
