No, both quarters and semis were drawn separately for who is home and away. It’s fair.

I'm glad Real Madrid won as I'd definitely prefer to play them if we get through tomorrow. I find playing English sides in the Champions League really boring, not to mention the fact that we don't usually do too well against them. Need to do our job tomorrow now.
You think Chelsea would be an easier game than Madrid? Madrid look bang average and limit benzema and they have nothing.As much as i dislike Chelski, and even Chelsea, I'd rather City play them than Real Madrid in the semi-final. Easier game by some distance.

Nah, don’t agree, Real is far easier than Chelsea.As much as i dislike Chelski, and even Chelsea, I'd rather City play them than Real Madrid in the semi-final. Easier game by some distance.

Noo! This Real Madrid side are not that good and a great match up for us.
We're better than Chelsea but this Chelsea side would have caused us problems. Yes we've beat them twice this season but only 1-0 and that can easily go wrong in Europe.
Yeah City are far better suited to playing a team like Real Madrid that won't be able to come up with a super-sophisticated counter like Chelsea could.You think Chelsea would be an easier game than Madrid? Madrid look bang average and limit benzema and they have nothing.
They'll go toe-to-toe and unless for individual brilliance it's City's bread and butter.

Ah, didn't know that but, then, I can't be arsed sitting through the draw. Bit shit that we "lost" both draws then.
If we won it last year would you have been happy?A competition frequently won by teams who are not competing for their domestic title as they are so far off the pace.
Of course, you would
That’s why it’s all the more infuriating when folk bang on about it’s prestige etc for me. Twats like Jordan or Sutton etc. past winners show it can be won by a team with an easy draw who got on away goals to the final. I get the need to win it for the owners but being domestic champs means more to me.Yes, that's true. But the carrot at the end of the stick is qualification for the CL, if you win it. Fwiw, I agree with you. It should only be league champions in the competition. But we all know it's never going to go back to that format. Money talks. So, in that regard, Villareal have a bit more credit in the bank for winning something to get there. All utd and Liverpool did was finish in the top 4.
