UCL Draw Thread

[CHOULO19 24,332]

A lot of people want Benfica (obviously no doubting that they are an easier draw than Madrid or Barca) but how do you guys feel knowing that Benfica would like to draw Chelsea? Honestly, Benfica line-up really well against Chelsea and usually do well against English opposition...be careful what you ask for, just sayin'

There is really no easy draw at this stage. I guess everyone wants Benfica because their players lack the experience of the CL knock-out stages.

Don't want Benfica, they're a good side with some really talented players (Witsel, Cardozo, Gaitan, Saviola, Rodrigo etc)

I hope we draw an English team tomorrow.

Liverpool, United, City, Tottenham or Arsenal would be exciting.

Oh wait…

It's far easier to beat Barcelona over 2 legs than in 1 final. Primarily because you can use one of the legs as an all out defensive effort, similar to what United did in 2008 and what we did in 2009 in Barcelona. If you can come away with a 0-0 you can be a bit more expansive in the return leg; but in a one off game you have to go at them and that makes the task much harder. If we had to face them I'd take the semi finals as the best possible time to face them.

Yeah, but for all that happened i would love winning the cup in their faces.

Inb4 Ovrebo makes a comeback from retirement to inspire Barcelona to one more famous victory.
