UCL Draw Thread

[MetsajCFC 1,255]

Mixed feelings about this draw. Especially with all the drama surrounding Courtois. Legally UEFA's statement shouldn't matter much, Chelsea can take it into civil courts who will allow the clause, no doubt. Contract is a contract. Nothing to do with UEFA. Happy to avoid Bayern and Madrid because they do have players who can change the game in a second out of nothing but the prospect of facing physical and very motivated Atletico isn't much better. However this spans out, I'm confident we'll make it into the final, no doubt in my mind.

Away on 22/23 April and home on 29/30 April atm. according to Dan Levene

Now we can all start dreaming again! Massive 2nd game at the Bridge. Tough team to beat, but not tougher than Bayern and Real Madrid.

Champions of Europe, we've done it before!

This tie will be so important for us NOT to fall behind by more then 1 goal! This is the one team you don't want to be behind against! If we can score first then they will have to come out and attack us which leaves us space to counter attack in! They will be forced to play at style that doesn't suit them! I feel the first goal will be important for us!

Hope some players will remember the 4-1 defeat in Monaco and will want to take care of it by winning this tie. I am also curious to see how the Courtois situation will look and end.

Oh, and there is another homecoming - Torres against his former club. Hopefully, though, he will be waving to the ATM fans from the bench only.

Still hurts.

Who's up for some revenge ?!

I would like us to finish the game there and not going under the same stress at home. It is crucial we score over there. I hope we win away, but a tie or a 2-1 loss would not be a bad result too. But I am hoping we win.

We are at the same level or even better than Atletico.

[Special Juan 28,096]

I'm pumped already for this.

[Kieran. 6,317]

yes, now let's hope we play the first and away match on a Tuesday so we have 5 days to recover for Liverpool. That's one of the most things imo, having the first match on a Tuesday

First match is Tuesday! :blue scalf:

Wowww we were so shit back then.

Not if Jose is on the other side!

Mourinho vs. Ronaldo in Portugal for the Champions League Final, against his former club.

So Gourlay has confirmed Courtois CAN play against Chelsea

Jose experience will be a huge factor here.

Atletico is a very dangerous opponent, but I trust Jose here. He will prevail once again.

Let´s see Chelsea in Lisbon against Real.
