Champions League 12/13

Fifa or uefa?

UEFA*

Honestly I hate this new draw for the semi-finals. It smells fishy and I like to have a good overview of where the teams are heading and who they'll meet next in advance.

There's good money in propagating conspiracy theories. Always a book waiting to be written

What conspiracy theory? Do you even football? The corruption in this game is ridiculous at times and most of it stays hidden. No one is outright claiming anything, only speculating.

If we do get Real in the semis or final, I'm hoping for something like the 5-0 or the 6-2 to give Mou and possibly Ronaldo a proper goodbye.

Wouldn't a Clasico in the semis earn them more revenue? Just by the fact that it's a two-leg tie.

Not if its over by the first tie like it usually is

really? they beat us twice in two-legged ties this season.

CL games are bit different than that Mickey Mouse cup you know?

I said usually when Barca is on form not when they are in their usual February Blip

After results this season, lets just say i'm hoping someone else knocks Real out so we dont have to play them in 1 or 2 legs - UNLESS we have Tito back for direction/guidance AND we are playing at near our best.

I would not want Barca to encounter RM in the CL. Their game is perfectly designed to beat us, and we haven't had a good game against them since August. Plase no Clasico. I want Barca to advance more than I want to witness another Clasico.

I'd be confident of beating them in the final but not over two legs. I think they would beat us on away goals. Maybe we're due a good Classico victory though.

Of course. At our best, we can still beat Real IMO, but I'd definitely rather not get them. I'm just saying that IF we get them, I'm hoping for a game like the 5-0 or the 6-2.

I can't think of many things that would be more satisfying than winning against RM in a CL semi-final or final. But considering our games in the past year, I'd rather spare myself the nerve-wrecking.

Agree.

I'd say Real are only the 5th best team left (behind Barca, Bayern, Juventus and maybe Dortmund), but they still have the best chance of knocking us out IMO.
