Still salty they beat you at anfield

3/7 teams we can play are Spanish Mad

Usually we get Porto at this stage, hope we get them again.

I actually hope we draw Bayern Liverpool or Man C, so that we get raped, hence hopefully forcing the new president/board to act quickly as they can when they come in and start our rebuild sooner rather than later.

Doesnt matter who we get really because we lose against any of those teams: Man City/ BVB/ Bayern/ Pool/ Chelsea/ PSG.

Even if we get BVB, Haaland will tear our shambolic defence a new one.

Liverpool aren't exactly at the top of their game these days, and PSG have done little to change their mental midgets associations.

BVB and Bayern both have relatively shaky defenses - especially, BVB. I hope for Barca vs BVB, personally. I imagine there'd be a lot of goals. I also wonder how Barca would defend against Haaland. I suspect they'd really struggle against his strength and speed. If he performs the way he did in the last match against Bayern, then there's also Sancho's fast feet to worry about.

I don't think we have the correct CB partnership available to sustain against well organized teams in the CL, hoping the attack and the return of our midfield by January barring no new injuries can help us get to the latter stages. Maybe if Klopp gets in a CB in Jan, things might change.

I think this one is again Bayern's to lose but I won't be surprised if we see someone new winning it this time.

I think this is the least stressful CL draw for Madrid fans in years.

Our possible opponents are: Porto, Atalanta, RB Leipzig and Lazio.

On paper, this should be a straightforward qualification to the quarter-finals. Then again, I watched how we played against Shakhtar, and even though I'm fairly confident, I can't rule out anything with this hot-and-cold Madrid.

We'll have some pretty mediocre round of 16 games.

Very few teams from the runners up pot look menacing or tricky

Granted a lot of things could change between now and Feb but still, doesn't look too exciting tbh

Easy peasy draw for Madrid. Finally, we're back to the quarter finals after two-year absence.

by The Demon of Carthage Mon Dec 14, 2020 11:25 am

I really wanted Barça to draw Bayern though. Now with PSG, it all depends on whether Neymar is healthy.
