I'm hoping that City goes through, because if Real faces Liverpool CR is gonna have a field day in the opponent's box with that defence.

Why does everyone assuming City will go through? I think Liverpool has better chance of advancing.

They have too many injuries in their midfield and defense (missing 3 players I think?), and their defense is already quite bad.

Of course anything can happen.

Dude you are one of the most depressing people right here. Barca is not ATM.

I'm actually one of the more positive posters who doesn't cry when we go and play 2-2 away to Sevilla after international break without our 2 best players or asks for an unbeaten manager to be sacked like most here. But you can still admit some facts.

If you look closely Ronaldo’s second goal was offside his starting position but they only showed the replay once. Don’t worry I think Messi will help us win

I don't fancy Barca's chances even against Roma let alone Madrid in the UCL

I wouldn't be surprised if Roma outpossess and outscore Barca. Chelsea did it, but only lacked serious finishing. So many teams have done it this season.

Roma have their chances like any other team thanks to Valverde and his workhorses
 
No idea why someone would hope to meet this Real Madrid team in the semi

It's because they're worse than they appear. They play with inexplicable mental edge. Against Barca, that has superior quality (Barca players are at their best against El Classico. Watch Iniesta run over Modric and Kroos) and recent history, their mental edge is nullified. And we have Messi.

Barca are the only team that without a doubt has the quality to stop this spring massacre. Maybe Pep's team can put up a fight since they seem better than his Bayern side, but ultimately they'd probably fall too.

What quality are you talking about.
Chelsea played possession football in our own backyard.
Chelsea of all teams.

A game off from Messi and we are out again

Why? Because we are the only team that can stop them and I would prefer to do that at Camp Nou and BernaLeo over two legs. Pep's City might be able to beat them, but I'd prefer to do that ourselves.

Classico final is a big gamble (and I won't be able to watch it).

I guess an invitation is up for a Tango in Kiev. :p
