Champions League 2017/18

In this level of football and with high wages and all, a day of rest is not an excuse. If we lose it was because we were an inferior team that day, not because Chelsea had a day more rest and had to stay home, which is only 2-3 hour flight.

Sh*t up it's self-victimize ....

I fear another Aytekin case ... Why does UEFA choose a shitty referee after what happened last year ?

Grow some balls man, you are supposed to be a top team. Act like one.
Already you have started to lay the groundwork if you lose and if a couple of decision go the opposite/either way (which probably will happen, as its a high stakes match).

Chelsea have played more games than us this season.

This Copa excuse is lazy.

We have very old core. You can see for example Messis level has dropped from start of the season. He hasn't been scoring lately.

So, my predictions for round of 16:

Juventus - Tottenham: This matchup can go either way. A lot will depend on Spurs' midfield. If they can provide the ball to Kane, I think they will take this one. Tottenham advances.
Basel - Manchester City: Too big quality gap between those two. City advances by a large margin.
Porto - Liverpool: This one depends on what kind of Liverpool will turn up. The defensively fragile Liverpool or the scoring machine Liverpool. Can go either way, L'pool has the slight advantage.
Real - P$G: The one and only match where I will be rooting for P$G. Time to prove their worth and show that they can kick out the Madrid scum. But, it's Real. Can go either way.
Bayern - Besiktas: Too big quality gap between those two. Bayern advances by a large margin.
Chelsea - Barcelona: Both teams slightly underperforming lately. But Barca still has a better team. Barca Advances.
Sevilla - Manchester United: United should be a clear favourite here. But they have suffered some unlikely losses lately. Can go either way.
Shakhtar - Roma: Roma is the slightly better team. Roma advances.

Just wait till tomorrow, and you'll see how hard P$G will choke.

A tie isn’t won on one leg

lol Besiktas has some collection of veteran players: Adriano(our former player), Quaresma, Pepe, Gary Medel, Rayn Babel, Vagner Love, Negredo. And people complain that our squad is old

That's awesome. I'll be rooting for them over Bayern.

Expect Tottenham to demolish Juve this evening.

I don't think Juve will lose. 1-0 win is my call. In these kind of matches, experience matters.

Juve is very strong home team. They basically never lose there. Draw would be massive for Tottenham.

 

[Givenchy]

Spurs will bottle it, expecting a tight Juve win

As a Real Madrid fan, I'll cheer for SPURS.

 

[Capitan Puyol]

Tottenham play Barcaesque sexy football (from the Pep's era) and very non-british. Juve is vulnerable team this year, that's why I think they will loose both ties....

You should hope for CL final repeat. You owned Juve. They were shit.
