Back at the Big Boy Table: A Champions League Thread

I have no idea of how they do it. I'll just leave it to them. If they give us a lousy draw then of course it's rigged.

 

That’s what I said (see above)

 

Was it?
It was to complicated for me

 

If we could play any team right now, I would feel super confident. February? A lot can happen in 2 months as we saw last year. Let's hope our form is still soaring.

 

Britain's seven teams in the Champions League and Europa League will discover their second-round opponents when the draws are made on Monday from 11:00 GMT in Nyon, Switzerland.

possible opponents for us:
Basel, Bayern Munich, Juventus, Shakhtar Donetsk, Porto or Real Madrid.

 

We get Porto. Second leg at Anfield. I can take that, although, there are no easy fixtures in the knockout stages any more.

 

But you could say they have a week less rest on the back side of the ties if they advance, right?

 

Playing Rafa (maybe) and Newcastle on the Saturday before our return leg. Think it's time to cash in those miles and head back to Merseyside for a few days.

 

Ahh now - In fairness, I thought that was a great draw for us.

 

Does not Compute......
Does Not Compute.....

 

Well...surprised I am...Chel$ki actually gets a tough draw, and we get Porto...oh but wait...JoMo no longer manages Chel$ki

JoMo and ManU get the "easier" draw vs Sevilla (who we could not beat - even with a 3-goal lead)

 

It's not really a rest as it's so far away. It might just as easily bite a team harshly to be the 2nd week depending on league fixture scheduling and Cup Competition....

 

Should be a good game that. But annoyingly has to be the same damn day as us! So the big channel will be them......

 

yep, completely.

 

can we sell Moreno to Manure in January? that'd REALLY help Sevilla.
