Nobody wants to face us. Mourinho knows the intricacies of most the Real Madrid players he has had to compensate for their flaws and manage them, surely that's more of an advantage than the players seeking revenge. One can say that Ancelotti knows this team only a little but because things have changed. Atletico will be playing with a rusty keeper and most likely missing Arda Turan who is fantastic. Bayern play a brand of football to which Mourinho is their kyrptonite, if we get them Pep knows he needs to change his system a little bit. We have a charismatic bunch (bar Torres) that will bleed for a win when we need it.

Agree with this. Ancelotti knows Lamps, JT, Cech, Cole, Ivanovic, Luiz, Ramires - few of those won't play anyway.

Jose knows the whole Madrid team bar Isco, Bale & Illaramendi (not sure of spelling)

Plus I think the whole "revenge" thing has been twisted a lot. I rewatched highlights of the game in pre season and he spoke with Coentrao & Alonso after the game, Ronaldo was reported saying he had forgiven him and there was never anything big. Think it is Pepe who still criticises him sometimes though.

I'd rather face Bayern. I hate them, plus I'd get to see Gotze play, who is awesome.

For me he has regressed this year. Yesterday as soon as he gone off Bayern actually started to play really well too. Sure he is still a great player but his influence is no where near the same as at Dortmund.

Anyone know what time is the draw?

11AM UK time so mid-day most of country in Europe.

Me too, it's a shame. But that's to be expected, no? New system, new coach, teammates, team. He's young and is on a team with Ribery, Robben, Schweinsteiger, Muller. It's hard to adapt quickly. I stopped watching when he came off, but he'll improve.

Why do people keep bringing this up like we're awesome going forward?

We are a very good counter-attacking team, nobody can argue with that and RM do seems to struggle when they are pressured high-up the pitch, something we do very well.

BBC is another thing but here too, I think that we can keep them quiet at the Bridge and Ronaldo is out for the 1st leg. So Real Madrid + 1st leg at the Bernabéu, and we could go to Lisbon.
