Shane 2,275 Posted January 18, 2009 Share Posted January 18, 2009 Do you think we can win the Champions League this season? Personally I think we can, Barcelona and Man United are our main threats but if I think we can go through on, Especially it being two legs. Barcelona are not invincible and do Man United have the same hunger for it we do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misschief 24 Posted January 18, 2009 Share Posted January 18, 2009 I'm hoping yesterday saw the re-emergence of our old fighting spirit and togetherness but I can still see us going out against Juventus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aesthetic Relic 301 Posted January 18, 2009 Share Posted January 18, 2009 If we get passed Juve then we'll have as good a chance as anyone. With all the other big guns going up against each other and a favourable draw for the next stage it could well go in our way. I'm not expecting us to due to our current state. So I wont be that disappointed if we crash out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueLion. 21,491 Posted January 18, 2009 Share Posted January 18, 2009 Its impossible to say we will, but of course we can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ollie 4,400 Posted January 18, 2009 Share Posted January 18, 2009 Look at our record in the last 5 years. Of course we can. Juve will be very tough tho because i dont think we can break these kinds of teams down. Wouldve prefered an attacking flair kind of side. Its a game that i can see only 1 goal deciding it either way. Surely though, last years hurt and the hurt from previous years mean that we want it more than any other team. Most teams that win or get to finals dont usually have the best domestic season or maybe arent the most in form team but anything can happen in cup competitions. We will win this thing soon, SURELY!

warnie_666 1,081 Posted January 18, 2009 Share Posted January 18, 2009 We need LUCK. And with that I mean, Second leg Fixtures at Home, Couple of refereeing decisions for us and no injuries.If all that is fine, We will win the UCL. Also, I would like to see us keep some clean sheets. Its been almost a month since we won 2-0 against West Brom. Clean sheets are very important for UCL. Hme and Away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laylabelle 9,539 Posted January 18, 2009 Share Posted January 18, 2009 Erm maybe..duno lol we havent been that amazing so far mean we havent yet won away but as said if we get past Juve..confidence etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLion. 21,491 Posted January 18, 2009 Share Posted January 18, 2009 We haven't won away, correct, but our home record is 3 wins from 3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matterz 67 Posted January 18, 2009 Share Posted January 18, 2009 As long as we dont draw Barcelona we have a pretty good chance, I think we are better than Juve and most of the Italian teams TBH. Some luck with the draws and injuries, ref decisions and yeah why not! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warnie_666 1,081 Posted January 18, 2009 Share Posted January 18, 2009 Man Utd was lucky last year both on the final day of the league and on the Chmpions League Final night. You need luck to win these tournaments. Liverpool had the ghost goal, Gerrad dive, etc etc to win that seasons Champions league. Asenal had Lehmann sent of in the first half paving the wayfor Barcelona to win it. We need somthing going our way, its high time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laylabelle 9,539 Posted January 18, 2009 Share Posted January 18, 2009 We haven't won away, correct, but our home record is 3 wins from 3. True if we can keep a clean sheet at home that be a boost Anmd if Ashley carries on marking the posts..also could help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carefreeluke 27 Posted January 18, 2009 Share Posted January 18, 2009 (edited) Juventus will be a tough test, Ranieri will want to prove a point and you can bet he will set Juve out right tactically to stop us playing. As much as im loving Anelka this season is he going to be enough to get us to the final? I don't think so unless Didier starts looking like he's bothered we might struggle this season in the Champions League.

BlueLion. 21,491 Posted January 18, 2009 Share Posted January 18, 2009 If the team continue to show the passion and fight they did yesterday, we won't need Drogba. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
