Its laughable that players are okay taking umpteen amounts of pain medication and injections to play through trauma, or risking their body in physical play.

But one vaccine that could give at most half a day worth of chills? Oh no. That's going too far. 

 

but but

Chelsea x Real

[Pizy 18,846]

If Reece is back fit and we can actually have fans in the ground I’ll be confident.

City and Liverpool should comfortably sail through to the semi’s. Was really hoping they’d draw one another and Real Madrid would draw Bayern to make our road back to the final much easier.

[Beigl 1,387]

We can do this. Hoping for a Simeone masterclass in the other QF. 

[Tricky Houseman 7]

Sooner play these, than anti-football Simeone. Last half hour of that tie against Utd the ball was actually in play 11 minutes. Who can watch that kind of crap? They'll make Citeh work that's for sure. Just hope the fans are back for the game.

[Blues Forever 1,232]

So basically the semifinals would be:

Bayern Vs Liverpool

Chelsea/Madrid Vs City

[MoroccanBlue 5,375]

I expect Real to be more difficult this year, but we should still win. 

[milka 3,390]

The last  year we beat and elimate all of them  - Atletico , Real and Citeh .

Now obviously things will be different without fans  but we have Tuchel .

FUCK

our luck truly ran out

[MoroccanBlue 5,375]

Apparently, we are away the first leg due to conflicting arrangements with Atletico and Real.

Madrid journos are still saying the 2nd leg will be at Bernabeu.

Looks like Real got what they wanted. 

So behind closed doors with no fans the first leg, to away with no supporters the 2nd leg. 

Fantastic. 

[Magic Lamps 11,692]

Vardrid are not any better than last year, just older 

We will miss chilly but other than that we are just as strong as last year. 
can’t get lucky every time, only Bayern does 

[MoroccanBlue 5,375]

Believe it or not, some people actually have Real favorites. 

Be top of a very weak league and bypass a implosive PSG side makes you favorites against a side that took the mickey out of you last year.

Wouldn't say completely ran out......

Did manage to avoid Bayern and the other English clubs..

Psychologically, the gap last year felt way more than two goals. We should be able to control the game - both home and away - again.

Teams in our half - City/Real/Atleti - are teams we now know we can overpower. I can see this ownership issue also create a rallying atmosphere. Just wish the sanction on fans was removed and we are set for a proper CL run-in

Sigh. This is annoying.

I take back what I said. Luck run out.
