One half:
City v Chelsea
Bayern v Real
Other half:
Atletico v Villarreal
Liverpool v Benfica

Yeah almost exactly what Iād want except think Iād prefer Citeh to have Real in the QFs but maybe youāre right and Chelsea would soften them up better? Especially if they are away first leg.

Chelsea might not be a bad draw.
They may have to play home games behind closed doors.
If thatās the case I donāt want Citeh getting them

Iāll take City.
Knock them out of Europe and kill their chance of winning the league in the space of 2 weeks will make Pepās salty tears so much more delicious

Over two legs we knock out the English followed by the German champions and get to beat the Spanish champions for the third time in the final.
Thatās class!
(Iāll also accept beating Real Madrid after Bayern so that we can enjoy making comparisons with the 1981 team)

Jeez, Juve got trashed at home last night? I mean, I know theyāre not a great side these days, but stillā¦ 0-3 at home to Villarreal.
Their complex in the CL goes onā¦

Benfica / Villarreal / Chelsea for me (coz they will be behind closed doors and Iāll pretty sure no fans at the away leg either

I get that we would like a relatively easy draw (although I donāt think it exists at this level) but Iād far prefer a team that we havenāt played already. On that basis Iād just want to avoid the English teams and Atletico.
Having said that, Benfica would be a nice one.

I really couldnāt give less of a shit about him. Us winning everything in sight is all I care for. Let Atletico kick the shit out of City, I donāt care.

I just want us to get the team weāve played least recently, which I think is Benfica?

Whatās the story behind this then?

Iām not entirely sure what the connection is but this isnāt a one off. They had the flag up after the Hillsborough inquest in 2016 and when they beat Utd last year.
Interestingly, their nickname is I think the yellow submarines.

Be great to play them in the next round
Yeah I think UEFA should be nice and let us play them.
Otherwise they are evil bastards.
Seriously
Iād rather us play a team that isnāt going drain us for 180 mins+ especially in the quarters we are going play every midweek if we go to the cup finals bar the last one I think that requires favourable ties weāve rode a tough one and no one is easy but some are prefable to others

Yeah, I would have loved to have Ajax for this reason.

Salt y Pep?
I love the gesture but I remember when we played them in the Europa League a few years back. They were a bunch of twats.
I think it must have been something to do with thisā¦
Also, Iām sure that one of the playerās basically dismissed Anfieldās atmosphere as nothing special (I know Marcelino GarcĆa Toral felt that the atmosphere was likely to inspire his players, but I have a vague recollection that one of their players was quite sneering about itā¦canāt find it now though)
