Champions League Semi-Final Draw | Paris Saint-Germain

[citytill1die84]

Wasted a shedload of chances over the two legs though and Haaland put them away.

That's not the argument tho

We have struggled with teams like those in previous seasons: Liverpool 4th, Spurs 4th, Lyon 7th, etc. We do better against the better teams.

We've already beaten all of the sides we could face in the final comfortably in the past 12 months.

We beat Madrid twice in 2020, home and away.

We beat Chelsea 3-1 in January. We've won 7 of the last 9 fixtures against them.

We beat Porto easily at home and drew when we had already qualified and rotated people, despite it being during the worst period of form we've had while Pep has been at the club.

We've beaten Liverpool 4-0 and 4-1, breaking the Anfield curse.

Hope we don’t see that repeated on here in a few weeks. Love us being here but absolutely hate the gut wrenching nerves (usually deserved) when we play in this bloody competition.

Dortmund will score so we put away our chances or we go out, simple as. If we get past them we'll face the same again in the semi.

 

[Bluemoonie92]

They are 5th in the Bundesliga.

If we cannot brush teams like that aside now, then we might as well give up.

I was talking about the quarters and semis.

We'll beat Dortmund but imo over 2 legs Bayern / PSG will beat us.

 

[Rammy Blue]

Hopefully Pep has realised false 9 is our best formation so I’d be shocked if he tried anything further left field than that now in these games.

It was 37% before the draw as well.

I thought it said 34% before but I‘m probably misremembedding.

Chelsea up to second favourite. Great draw for them.

All decent teams so you just have to beat who is in front of you. Lets hope we don't get any funky team selections or formations :)

Who did the rags get......oh.....yeah....

 

[Xhavenjoe]

If all the English clubs get to the semis, and we make it to the final, it will be an English club we will face

You might put David Blaine out of a job

 

[balotelli's back pocket]

Dortmund will not be easy at all. Haaland will score, you can bank on it. Sancho will have a point to prove as well. But we should have enough to beat them over two legs.

Think PSG will beat Bayern - they're just not as good as they were last year, especially defensively, and with Neymar and Di Maria back I fancy PSG to punish them.

In terms of preferred final opponents, I'd rank them:

Porto
Real Madrid
Chelsea
Liverpool

I don't care how shit they are. I cannot handle the scousers in the final.
