that kit that the fans are wearing looks like the 99-2000 kit Deportivo used when they won La Liga except it was purple. This one looks like a light blue! GUTI GUTI GUTI MARICON!

Although Real Madrid looks like the over-whelming favourites to progress considering Madrid's history in Europe against Tot's and Mou's record against HArry, but still I ve got a feeling that it will not be as easy as few might think/feel. // OT : Thanks and best wishes for Madrid and Lyon players / fans for their gesture for Eric Abidal

Only a crazy guy would think Spurs is an easy tie .. they are in the final 8th for the first time for a valid reason : they earned it
plus i'd fancy VDV executing a revenge

They aren't easy but you can't deny it's probably the best draw we could get, them or Schalke. If we cannot beat this Spurs team then we got some serious problems.

Thank God there is some sense in this thread. Tottenham can upset Madrid. If people watch Tottenham, they'd know that.

Who are you and what have you done with Ward?!?

I'd rather meet Shakhtar than any except for D Kiev in the late 90's the East European trips usually an easy success for us
.. English sides physicality always a problem plus they are direct as fuck .. Germans aren't easy, given due to their managerial changes they are the weakest side
Spurs IMO are 6th strongest side in the last 8 with the Ukrainian 7th and the Germans last
the other problem is they play similar to us in some ways

Spurs/RM will probably be the most entertaining QF.

 

[La Furia]

Spurs/RM will probably be the most entertaining QF.

If one sided games are entertaining to you, sure.

 

[Beast]

Spurs/RM will probably be the most entertaining QF.

Yep i see an open game from both sides

Going to be a huge Madrid fan for the games vs Spurs.

Come on Ronaldo, don't let me down Personally, don't think Spurs' defence will contain Madrid. Gallas is out for ages now. Modric is an excellent player but Madrid's mid will dominate. I'll be shocked if Spurs qualify, Mourinho knows how to play an English team.

Any suspensions or injuries against Atletico Madrid?

 

[Beast]

He will be resting several players vs Atletico as announced
