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.

Yes, but we had beaten Liverpool 5:0 at home and were 25 pts ahead in the league when we played them in 2018. Then we had won vs Spurs away and were 30 pts above them when we played them in 2019.

Think it's good we won't play an English team this time (before the final).
 
Very tricky draw. We can outplay Dortmund but I'm not so sure we can outplay AND outscore Bayern. Haaland isn't all that, it's Lewandowski that we need to be watching.

Either way, some great ties to test us assuming we keep going.
 
Pissed off that Chelsea get such an easy tie, really hope it’s not a repeat of the year they fluked the CL and end up signing Haaland because they’re ‘European champions’. That would be beyond shit.

However, I think over two legs we’ll have enough to beat Dortmund. More worried about Bayern, obviously. I guess they may have an off day and lose to PSG though who I think again we can beat.

Looking at Liverpool’s league form I doubt they’ll even knock out Real. They won’t keep out Benzema with that defence.
 
Despite some luck here and there, if you are reaching a CL final you need to beat the best teams. And after the Lyon Monaco debacle or even Pellegrini Real Madrid semifinal snoozefest, this is one of the most scenic routes to the final.
Dortmund are weak, Bayern defence is a lot suspect and PSG are second in Ligue 1.
If we don't beat them, we don't deserve to be in the final despite what anyone thinks

Exactly.

People just assume because it's the CL, Liverpool will be the Liverpool of last season, they won't be.

Nothing between them and RM are one of the few teams to have more experience winning it too.

Coin flip
 
Expected Dortmund.
We can't complain about tougher draws when we rolled over to Lyon and Spurs irrespective of circumstances. Dortmund is tough but we should be winning over 2 legs
