Champions League Draw | QF - Bayern Munich | SF - Real Madrid

[SidJames]

Worst draw we could have had, but that's just the way it goes in Europe. We lost to Monaco and Lyon before when the draws were fine and we've beaten Real and PSG in other knockouts so not necessarily a bad thing.

Bayern were the team I least wanted. They've been excellent in Europe this season and the pace and movement up front from Mane, Gnabry, Sane is just the sort of thing we'd struggle against on the counter or otherwise.

Not great to be at home first either, going there for the away leg will be very difficult unless we have a big lead. Got to make the most of home advantage in the first leg.

This 100%... Bayern have the Tools up front to expose our defensive weakness. The team I didn't want with Pep liking that 3 at the back and inverted Fullbacks.

Going to be very difficult with the away leg in Germany.

We can do it obviously.

Madrid if we get past Bayern i am way more optimistic about. Aging side with a shit defence we can easily get at.

Personally, I like the draw. If we win this then no one can say we had it easy. I also think it’s better to play them now then get to the final and have to do it.

Bring it on !

Agreed

If we are good enough we will win it.

Depends on the ref. We have been good enough before to win but some dodgy decisions left us out in the cold.

A great draw. We know we have to be at our best for all the games. We thrive against the good teams. Its wen we play against teams we are meant to beat we become lax. This way we need to be totally concentrated. If we get threw Bayern its great we got second leg at home. One game at a time. CTID

We are good enough and I think the best bit is we will be ready and want it more than them

So we can expect you won’t be in the match threads for these games?

How you can’t be interested is baffling.

I am never in them smart arse , games are too late in the evening for me and no i am not going to explain why again

Knew wed get bayern in this comp once cancelo went there, he's gonna haunt us.

I actually think the schedule doesn't look too taxing.

Both games v Liverpool (by then), United and Spurs out of the way. No top 6 away trips. The games slot in quite nicely.

Decent draw in the FA Cup Semi Final (assuming we win this weekend) and competing on 3 fronts is doable.

Could be worse. After what happened last time, pleased we can't meet Chelsea in the final if we get that far. English teams usually beat us in this competition, so as long as RM can knock Chelsea out it's all good. If we don't believe we can beat the likes of Bayern, RM and Napoli then it's not even worth watching.
