What is this gooners have a bye to the final nonsense
There are no standout teams so far this season in the Champions League.

Horrific draw that - as bad as it could possibly be. Just to get to the final we'd have to go through Real, Bayern and PSG or Liverpool. Not a cat in hells chance we negotiate that.

Conversley that draw couldnt have gone any better for Arsenal - they dont meet any opponent to trouble them until likely Barca in the semis.

Madrid won't be looking forward to playing us.

The silver side of the draw (our side) has pretty much all the best teams.

The blue side of the draw puts Arsenal in the Final unless it’s a big upset.

Difficult to see a worse draw for City.

While it looks that way, 4 of the teams on the blue side finished ahead of us and only 3 on our side.
Its going to be hard to progress in this tournament, no matter who we are playing.

6 of the 8 draws feature a PL team. Imagine if they all go through.

Couldn't be worse. Great in a way.

Arsenal have a bye until the final which wont help us in the league. Only Barca of any quality of their side.

Fucksake!

Liverpool and Arsenal get the best draws

In terms of their next game, yes. But the overall route to the final, Arsenal have it easy. Liverpools is deadly along with everyone else on the grey side.

The dream scenario is coming together.
We beat Arsenal in the league cup final.
We pip them to the title with a game to spare, putting their last game on a real downer of an atmosphere and the media slating Lego head.

Then we beat them in the CL final just to ensure they know they’re where they should be in the pecking order.

If we can beat them in the FA Cup final also, well the Samaritans will be on overtime.

Make. It. Happen!

I like the cut of your jib.

I don’t think PSG will make it that far.

The same could have been said last February.

Arsenal have a big reward for finishing top.

This is where we see the real teams show up.

Look at PSG last season.

If we're on it we could do the same.

Madrid reactions to drawing us yet again is worse than our reactions, we ate the team they fear playing, no complaints from me, it's a consequence of not doing well enough in the league phase. The arsenal route however is incredibly fortunate. They earned a little bit of good fortune from finishing top but not a free pass to the final.

At the start of the season when you plot out the dream scenario where you get easy ties and all the rivals knock each other out, that's just happened for Arsenal.

Whilst it would feel almost like a cheaters way of winning it, they won't give a shit and nobody will remember that. Feels like the whole of football have handed them the easiest opportunity ever to do a treble here.

Yes it could but it still doesn’t change my mind this time.

 

[bluemoon32]

Liverpool and Arsenal get the piss easy games in this round.

 

[chaddblue]

Our likely path to the final

Q/ F Bayern Munich
S/F PSG
Final - Arsenal or Barcelona

Arsenal have basically got a bye to the semis

I thought City always got easy draws?

 

[levets]

What kind of fucking draw was that

We came out and automatically played Madrid !!!

I thought same, I then expected the opponents to be drawn too.
First out gets Madrid is odd

 

[hcblue]

Is there a risk that the two Madrid teams won't be allowed to play on successive nights? If so I think that would mean our game would reverse as Real finished higher in the league. Would be typical UEFA fixing

We have to watch it when we're booking flights.

Ryanair cunts kicked me out 3 times to put the prices up

Barca in the semi won’t be easy for arsenal
