UEFA Champions League Knockouts draw

Inter

What draw would you want to see in the next round .
I wish for PSG - Chelsea ; Dortmund - Real Madrid

And for the sake of football Man City - Bayern in the final but feels like it won't happen. That game will be the most interesting final ( at list on paper ) since Barca - Man u 2009.

I want Man City then the winner between Dortmund and Porto

I want revenge

City to take it this year for the UCL.

And when they win, I will quote it Casciavit style.

Ready for any biggest of the big teams left there in the bowl. Dont care about getting eliminated at this stage.

WE are Liverpool. We like playing against so called big teams. Would put a proper fight. Our players can only rise up to the occasion when it matters with their lives on the line. If we play against smaller teams, we tend to be too passive. Bring it on



Either Bayern, PSG or ManCity please.

Man City vs Borussia Dortmund, interesting fun for the neutrals
Porto vs Chelsea, easy win for Chlesea if not, Tuchel OUT
Bayern Munich vs PSG, knock out each other here and we will see
Real Madrid vs Liverpool, two champions struggling in different circumstances. Still will be a great match.

Then the semi-finals...

Bayern/PSG vs Man City/Borussia Dortmund, wowwwww so one of these should go on to win the whole thing according to GL. Let's see
Real Madrid/Liverpool vs Porto/Chelsea, Underdogs together

Easy semis prediction:
City v Bayern
Madrid v Chelsea

Chelsea have a massive chance to make the final

Porto and then meet the winner of 2 struggling clubs

I don't know if they'll win the whole thing but they clearly are big winners of this draw

Liverpool v Chelsea should be a fun semi, hoping it happens.

It would be a travesty if this Chelsea team somehow wins the CL just like their only previous CL victory lol

If Porto win CL in this day and age, would it be a bigger achievement than Leicester winnning PL

Nah Leicester winning the PL is the biggest achievement in the modern era. A team who most expected to get relegated won a 38-game league format in a league where there are 6 top teams who compete in Europe and spend the most in the world.

CL is a lot more variable. Luck plays a way bigger role since there are less matches in a knockout format.

I'll be surprised if the winners are anything other than Bayern, Man City, Chelsea and Liverpool. The closest one is RM-Pool.

Semis: Bayern Vs City, Liverpool Vs Chelsea

Very interesting matchups although Bayern-City should have been the final

Agreed. But Bayern vs. PSG will also be close.

and why is that

So just realized the draw brackets Chelsea will likely be playing Real next and that means for me Real could be in the final again, they are definitely better than a improved but still not there yet Chelsea. Wow... Zidane is amazing. Im starting to have thoughts of the nightmare scenario of what if Dortmund somehow beat Man C and than Bayern/PSG, Real would surely win another one

If we reach the final i am 99.9% sure that we are winning the CL because we just don't lose finals. It's the road to the final which is tricky

Madrid will win the CL, i realised it after Tuesday night.

Yeah , it would have been comparable to Greece 2004. Nothing is close to Leicester.

Anyway it is not going to happen , as obvious.  I'm grateful to Porto but they're the intruder, Juve've ruined 4/4 of big draws

Greece 2004 was fixed, watch how Portugal purposely missed completely skied every shot to avoid scoring

#UCL pot 1 in order of strength

Liverpool
Bayern
Manchester City
Real Madrid
Ajax
Manchester United
Juventus
Lille

pot 2

Chelsea
PSG
Inter
Atletico
Atalanta/Villarreal
Salzburg
Benfica
Sporting

praying for Salzburg, don't fancy our chances against anyone else

Hope we get PSG

I smell a PSG vs United rematch

So from pot 2, Madrid cannot be drawn against Inter or Atlético or Villarreal (if they make it tonight). So we can be drawn against Chelsea, PSG, Atalanta (in case they make it), Salzburg, Benfica and Sporting.

I don't think Flo has the cash to bribe UEFA this year, so I think we'll get either Chelsea or PSG.

Wtf @ Tuchel, fielding a half B team n deservedly got into pot B, with a decent chance of getting knocked out of round 16 as a result?

Juve vs Atletico. You just know it
