Hoping for a 5-6 or something, should be a great match!

I prefer to watch all facets of the game, not just attacking.
Both have rather poor defenses, which will probably mean there will be a gluttony of chances and goals. I tend not to find these games interesting as it only highlights how incomplete both sides are.

but the question is the leverkusen side that shipped 5 against Manchester United at home a more complete team than Barca or City? are their defense better than both? its a big no and PSG are way too superior to Leverkusen in every regard..
Why dont we just admit you like watching serie A all star elevel aka PSG lol
Re: Champions League Last 16 discussion
Lol I'll be watching City vs Barca and will only switch if (when) Ibra scores a goal.

Leverkusen are quite incomplete. Never denied that. PSG however, on paper, at least, have excellent quality in every area. Does that mean they'll automatically blow Leverkusen away? Not by any means.
PSG have only put one truly CL-caliber team to the sword this season and that was Benfica back in the fall. They have that potential, but they haven't done that with any regularity so I don't expect that to happen away to Leverkusen. Could I be wrong? Certainly. I just don't tend to gravitate towards glamour ties like City-Barca as both teams do not interest me in general.
And yes, I do prefer Serie A because I actually enjoy the tactical side of the game and thus I do appreciate the art of defending . Maybe you need to take a second and think about why you consider this so negative when its such a vital part of the game.

I predict a much more settled game than what McLewis is inferring. There may be three goals from either side, but that just speaks to the attacking quality and players they possess.
They could score three on PSG or Leverkuzen or whomever.

Actually i didnt say a word abou not preferring a defensive game. Well you kind of said it yourself, you are interested in what happens to the serie A all star 11 aka PSG which is exactly what i said. The part about incompleteness though is not really transparent considering Leverkusen is by far worse team than Barca or Man City
Re: Champions League Last 16 discussion
Extremely disappointing round of games.
All 4 ties set and match probably.
Here is hoping home teams offer more next week.....The only home side I can see winning the game though is Olympiacos. And that's because David Moyes is the manager of Manchester United.

If they had Mitroglu, I'd say they had a good chance
Now though, it's even stevens

United will be the only English side to make it past the round of 16.
I hope we draw them next.
Free pass to the semis, here we come.

You're in for a rude awakening i guess.
If anything,this week's games were the ones where you could've expected close results.Next week's games already looks one-sided as it is on paper atleast,though still hoping we see some close games.
In any case,i think we're going to have a great Quarter-Final lineup of games so thats one positive i suppose.

Atletico are the complete opposition. “Possession isn’t everything,” says their coach Diego Simeone. However, Atletico are utterly magnificent without the ball.
Essentially, Atletico are the opposite of everything you expect from a Spanish side
I love you for this reason Simeone , defence and counterattack , another demonstration today, I wait you

Brilliant article about the Atletico Madrid.

Not a single home team scored a goal the first two match days and the Atleti is the only game you could argue is still alive. Blimey
hope that continues though

Next week it's even less likely that the home teams will score.
Olympiacos - Yanited
Galatasary - Chawsea
Schalke - Mehdrid
Zenit - Dortmund
Yanited most likely to ruin the trend. I'm actually going to bet on this now.

I think Galatasaray might score. Schalke are in good form as well you never know
imagine going into the second legs and only the Atleti game is open out of ALL games
