Yeah not a good match up, their rough house defensive tactics could pose a problem... Still over 2 legs, the second leg being at home ... I'm still confident
I personally believe UEFA rigged the draw. This was what I expected. The Real vs Man City. And the Liverpool vs. Atletico. Real obviously are UEFA favorite boy.
Becareful when play Atletico. They very physical, I saw them play against Juventus in the group stage, and they just want to BREAK Juventus players legs. Liverpool must not let them knock you with a hamstring or twist a muscle or something, because you want all your first team player to be fit so you can continue leading the table in Premier league.
And I don't see Man City can beat Real though. I go for Real win this one. I also see Liverpool can win Atletico. My bet is on Liverpool. It just they very physical, so don't go one to one physical on them. I not sure how the Spurs vs. Juventus will flare out. But I believe Juventus can beat Spurs.
Alright. It just mark my words, REAL will win this. I know it. Man City will get knock out of the CL in the group 16 stage. We will see in March after two legs who will win. I still say Real got this. and I don't like any Spain clubs, from Barca to Real to that gangster Simeone Atletico team. I just the state of Man City right now in, they will not be able to beat Zidane Real. Plus I believe UEFA will keep Real in the competition as long as they can, certainly at least pass the round 16.

None of the Atletico right now can make it to Liverpool first team. And Atletico this year has drop in their table in their league. It just the style they play, and the coach tactics. And overall their physical. That all. Beside that, Liverpool has WAYYYYYYYYYYYYY more than enough to beat them.
The thing is to me Liverpool do the best when the team play into Liverpool game, attack just like Liverpool, like Red Bull. With Atletico I know for sure they *won't* play into Liverpool game. Their rough physical defending shit. So make sure Liverpool score first. And I wouldn't play into their physical level, especially when you going to win the PL league trophy. And I guess that gangster Simeone is still Atletico coach by then? Ugh... I see alot of fans already underestimate Atletico, and put them down. yes, they park the bus. But they more than just that. But i believe in your coach, Klopp wouldn't underestimate them. Good luck.
Atletico's CL group results: Atletico Madrid 2:2 Juventus Lokomotiv 0:2 Atletico Madrid Atletico Madrid 1:0 Bayer 04 Bayer 04 2:1 Atletico Madrid Juventus 1:0 Atletico Madrid Atletico Madrid 2:0 Lokomotiv Don't score a lot, don't concede a lot.
yeah, ATL they conceded ONE goal (in the match they lost), eta: actually they conceeded 2 more vs Juve. Fans are calling them WWE style, parking the bus, etc.. Napoli is a defensive team like Atletico, but something about Atletico, they just different,even in defensive, they different from Napoli. And Napoli is a nice boy compared to Simeone.
No matter what the year, no matter what the team, no matter what the season, no matter the stage, no matter who the ref is, every year there's always the shout of "fix!". Always. UEFA consistently have shown that it couldn't organise a kettle to boil water, have consistently fu*cked things up - look at the venues for Euro 2020 or that wonderful Nations League thing - and if there's a simple way of doing something, they'll always choose the hard way and screw it up. Platini and Blatter couldn't even keep a secret bank transfer secret. There're always leaks. Yet, over the years, every season, it somehow manages to fix entire draws, refs and schedules and no-one has ever come forward saying, "the fix was in"? For an organization that exudes incompetence, the fixing of draws must rank up there with the disappearance of the Abominable Snowman in the middle of the Bermuda Triangle. Every Friday the 13th. (Just happened again last Friday).
well I don't know if UEFA rigged the draw, it just that what first came in my head as after the draw result came out. Apology if it not rigged. Wopps my bad.
Ahh! The old, “I can’t prove it was fixed, but it was. Because everyone knows it.” The proof I have that it was not fixed is that every year there’s always the claim something was fixed - ref, draw, penalties, etc. - yet not one single person ever has come forward saying they helped with the fix or they have proof of the fix. Not. One. Single. Person. Ever.
Atalanta v Valencia ---- seems rigged to me, purposely pair this two easy teams together. I bet all will wait in line to wish they draw one of these teams in their quarter-finals, so they can have an easy route to the semi.
And yet if Atalanta had drawn, say, Real and Valencia, Man City, there’d be shouts of fix to let City and Real into the QFs. As a general rule, I find thinking something to be so doesn’t make it so. Otherwise I definitely would have won at least 27 and maybe 28 lotteries this year. (29 would probably have raised too many suspicions). Not. One. Single. Person. Ever.
That was their most likely draw because of the restrictions not playing team from your nation or group that highly influences the draw for the Spanish and English teams.
well then tough shit draw for City then. I fail to see how can the current form City can beat Zidane Real. I guess bye bye City. They lost out in PL and now in CL too. No trophies for them this year.
By the time they play Real they have probably brought in a new player or two and they might have Laporte back. If they are no closer to us by the time this game comes around they will be 100% focused on the CL. I doubt Real will be able to handle them.
Yes Atletico are tough and should give us 2 tough games,but If WE play to Our Potential - We should be Crushing them and that's exactly what I think will happen. YNWA.
yeah no doubt, I did wrote above, I do see Liverpool go through, in fact I think Liverpool will trash them. I believe Liverpool will win 2 legs, both away and at home.
This is a very different Atletico team than in years past - they have had a terrible domestic campaign, have a lot of players that they probably are trying to replace, and some new one they are trying to integrate. Will they be a bunch of shit-house, play-acting, game-slowing, diving cheats? For sure. But can we and should Liverpool win? For sure. Plus we are going to unleash the Mini-Firmino on them too!
