Did anyone watch the PSG game? How were Bayern?

I watched. Bayern barely broke a sweat and completely nullified PSG much like the first leg. PSG look totally average and not very well coached.

Bayern to me are hard to really judge. Their team has huge quality of course but I’m curious to see another top side actually go after them and push them. PSG is full of attackers who have zero interest in pressing so Bayern could just walk it around like City do.

Boooos ring round the Tottering Hotspurs Stadium.

True Spursiness.

To top it off, Richarlison rants at the coach for not starting him and says it's been a 'shit season'

Let's be realistic, we beat a pretty mediocre Dortmund team - I don't think the current formation will go all the way to the final even if some of the 2021 players are still here. Although the last 10 years Chelsea have more tournament cups than champions titles

Last time Chelsea played Real Betis was Tuesday 1 November 2005 when we lost Group G match in UCL and CFC lost away at Betis 1 - 0.

the likely final 8 teams

 

Real Madrid

Bayern

Citeh (barring a huge upset by RB Leipzig, it is only 1 1, but the match is at Citeh)

Napoli

Chels

AC Milan

Benfica

then a coin toss between Inter and Porto

 

ideal (for us) semi finals:

Semi 1 Real v Bayern (the 2 best teams in terms of winning the CL atm IMHO)

Semi 2 Napoli v Citeh (the next 2 best teams)

Semi 3 AC Milan v Benfica or Inter (Inter if they beat Porto)

Semi 4 Chels v Porto or Benfica (if Porto lose to Inter)

then in the Semis we draw the winner of Semi 3

IF we avoid the top 4 teams left until the final we have a real shot, and IF the final is us v Napoli, then we have a 50/50 shot I wager

Bayern were the winners of 2019-20. Then they fell victim to the freak snowstorm in 2020-21 and last year the shock from Villareal.
Villareal were coached by Unai Emery who should be the next Chelsea manager.

For me Bayern Munich are the clear favourites. Then come Pep and Real Madrid or Real Madrid and Pep and I give a good outside chance to Benfica.

Ideal for us is AC Milan whom we have already beaten twice this year and the success over Spurs does n't make them of course any sort of great team.
Then come Porto who will dispose easily of Inter Milan, then Napoli.
