UEFA Champions League (Part 1)

PSG and Real will be seething!! Utd still going out, Atletico have go their wish!

With a few injuries too

On paper harder than Salzburg, but we are still rather big favorites, so a very decent draw I would say.

Basic rule here is don’t do draws on a Monday.

Real will be fucking fuming, and with just cause. Which is all the better :grinning:

Especially because it was Atletico who complained?

Yeah didn’t think of that at the moment, when I was watching it live it really looked like the “software” made a mistake, would’ve been hilarious to get a third draw a couple of hours laters :rofl:

I can already see the Marca story when Real goes out and the lamentations that they did not get Benfica start for real.

So after this I imagine Florentino saying that his team won’t play the champions league ever again and that his beloved super league will start next year, right?

Will this be the first time we’ve played Inter since that match in 1965? Revenge is best served cold after all.

And Man Utd fans will raid at OT hoping everything just keeps getting postponed till they get Middlesbrough.

Are they somehow going to slide Barca in there?

On paper it’s an OK draw. We should have too much for them.

However, not mad about our fans going to Italy again. Italian fans are stabby, slashy cunts and are long overdue sanctions.

No, we played them at the same stage (last 16) in 2008 in the CL. Beat them 1-0 away and 2-0 at Anfield.

Am I right in believing that the 2nd leg of our tie with Inter is at Anfield? Or are they the other way around?
