Plz

 

My quarter final opponent preference order:

Porto
United
Ajax
Liverpool
City
Barca
Juventus

 

Reading that article really gets one mad. It's a shame that a famous person can just get away with such an awful crime.

 

Yes, it really does put things in perspective. So easy to gloss over these things when he scores a stunning Champions League hat trick, but really, it's disgraceful that he can sweep things under the carpet so simply.

 

Little surprised that you're more worried about Juve than both Barca and City.

Ideal draw to amuse me (no horse in this race, obviously!) would be:
City - Barca
Spurs - Ajax
Liverpool - Porto
United - Juve

Seems very unlikely that the English teams will all avoid each other though.

 

I just think Juve is a terrible matchup for Spurs.

 

I'd be happy if they were paired against Liverpool, Ajax, Porto, or United.

 

I also think Poch’s history in Spain would help against Barca. But they’re still way more talented.

 

Part of me wouldn’t mind a Juve rematch cus I think we could beat them and maybe redeem choking it away last year

but also I’d rather not have Cristiano’s face on my screen for four hours

 

I think CR7 could realistically win a tie singlehandedly against anyone (bar Barcelona maybe) on his day, so Juve definitely one to avoid for as long as possible. Pre-draw prediction for last 4 = City, LFC, Juve, Barca. United or Spurs can get through with a big performance if they drew any of those 4 but Ajax & Porto would need to draw each other to be confident of progressing lol

Just my “two cents”!

 

Just put the Arsenal game on to see Mustafi make a mistake and Rennes nearly score. Classic Mustafi.

 

That Munir goal tho

 

Liverpool and Juve getting the favourabl draws.

 

United getting an absolute fucker of a draw, for the second time in a row.

Ajax - Juve
Liverpool - Porto
Spurs - City
Barca - United

 

Ugh of course we get City

At least the first leg will be in the new stadium. Maybe that’ll give us a boost.

 

isn’t that City -Spurs 3 times in the space of like 10 days?

 

All set up to be Juve/Pool/City/Barca final 4 which would be pretty tasty, though always seems to be at least 1 upset

 

Yep lol

 

@Nick we’re enemies now boyo

 

The four "big" dogs drew the weaker sides. Absolute bullshit.

 

Can't wait to see Ajax get knocked out of the competition by a late VAR penalty scored by a guy who should be in prison

 

Glad they put the Spurs first leg on a Tuesday even though we play a league match on Sunday.

 

Gonna lose anyways. Lol

 

That was likely their rationale lol

 

“That’s why Spurs is a verb”- my (Arsenal supporter) bartender last weekend during our game v Watford
