Champions League Last 16 Draw - RB Leipzig

[Dodgy Gangster]

I’d love to get Inter Milan so we can give Edin a hero’s reception.

surey liverpool have to smash napoli at home by 4 goals (?) which aint gonna happen

Yes unlikely that Liverpool smash Napoli, they are at home though so who knows.

Better for us if Liverpool finish 2nd.

 

[MCFC1993]

No English Team would face another regardless if they finish first or second in the last 16!

Yes but Liverpool finishing 2nd rules out the chance of playing Napoli, which is great for us as they look strong this year.

 

[Champions Again Ole Ole]

Were due a game with Shakhtar again...

At least it would be in Poland

 

[Ithryn Luin]

At least it would be in Poland

Poland is good!! Perogies yum yum!!

 

[cptaidan88]

Hopefully we get the dippers somewhere along the way if we could manage to eliminate them it would be better than winning the damn thing.

What a ridiculous thing to say

 

[Dzeko9]

Probably Lpool will finish group second place and get Club Brugge at the draw. Luckiest team in the world.

 

[Blue and true]

Hopefully we get the dippers somewhere along the way if we could manage to eliminate them it would be better than winning the damn thing.

Jesus wept. So you'd rather knock out Liverpool than actually win the one major trophy that still eludes us?

Some of our fans hate other teams more than they love City.

 

[Champions Again Ole Ole]

Probably Lpool will finish group second place and get Club Brugge at the draw. Luckiest team in the world.

If Tottenham win their group, Liverpool can only get Munich, Madrid, psg/benfica, club brugge/Porto. Given that Munich can't play dortmund, leipzig, inter or possibly frankfurt, it's a good chance it'll be them

 

[Xhavenjoe]

Hopefully we get the dippers somewhere along the way if we could manage to eliminate them it would be better than winning the damn thing.

But if we won it, it would mean some team would have to eliminate them along the way, preferably us in the final.

Can somebody confirm that we will not have to play an English clup in the round of 16?

Confirmeb

Clubs from the same country can't meet in the last 16.
It's only from the Quarter Finals onwards.

How does that work for the fuckin Dippers, Everton aren't in the CL.

 

[mrtwiceaseason]

The teams we can face are:

Inter Milan
Club Brugge/Porto
Ac Milan/Salzburg
Winner of shakhtar vs Leipzig
Benfica/PSG

Tottenham group is still wide open so anyone from there.

The probability is that psg will finish 2nd if they don't win in Turin. They're probably the only team we'd want to avoid

So we just need to add sporting Lisbon, Marseille and Frankfurt as possibles and that's it ,and the away leg will be one of the 2 February weeks I think .as group winners play home second

Thank fuck, no dippers for us. They have some kind of psychological edge over us. Fucking dread the thought of playing them.

 

[vmsuhail]

Real Madrid are only a point ahead. If they finish second, then that's the toughest tie possible. If both Real and PSG top the groups, we already have one foot in the quarter-finals.

 

[Txiki Txiki Bang Bang]

Yes but Liverpool finishing 2nd rules out the chance of playing Napoli, which is great for us as they look strong this year.

They haven't met a team that places emphasis on controlling the flow of the game, that's why they look so good. If they come up against us or Bayern, they would be exposed

 

[LangleyBlue1970]

Brilliant seeing those dirty twats Atletico get knocked out. Glorious.

 

[mrtwiceaseason]

Would love to see us get shakhtar in Warsaw ,that would be a brilliant trip ,and cost about 20p :+)

 

[Gray]

Off those 12 teams that have qualified, 11 are from the 6 top nations in Europe.

There are 5 chamions. 3 runners-up, 2 third placed teams, and Benfica who were in a two legged play-off to qualify for the league stages.

The exception is Brugge (Belgium Champions) from the 12th best nation.

The 11 from the top leagues will increase to 13 when Group D gets decided.

So a guaranteed 13 out of 16 from the top six leagues, if Milan from group E and Leipzig from group F qualify then it will be 15 teams from the top 6 leagues.

The "competition" is just a money making racket.

Isn't that what you'd expect, not sure what your point is ?
