Am I right in saying that Liverpool are the only side on that list that we have never faced in the Champions League?Sevilla
Roma
Juventus
Liverpool
Real Madrid
Bayern
Barcelona
Fortunately we can't draw City, they're a fucking amazing team.Why do people keep listing seven teams, when there are actually eight teams in the quarter finals?
Sorry that's not unfortunate. That is shite finishing.

Not sure a 20-25 yard shots are shite finishing , in the six yard box maybe
I had a similar discussion with a friend of mine regarding hockey years ago. I kept saying that during a playoff series that one team was unlucky and the games were close because they were all ending with one goal difference but the team losing was getting more chances and always looked just about ready to change it. He had played for years professionally (though not top level) and said, the difference between hitting the pipes and going in is usually further than you think it is. Having a lot of shots that go wide, doesn't make it a quality chance. Even though I was caught on the stats of the situation, he correctly stated that the game was never in doubt.
Once Barca was up 1-0 nill after a couple minutes, they simply adjusted better. The shots that looked like they were close were almost as well hit as they could have been under the circumstance. Did you ever feel that Barca was in trouble? I didn't. They controlled the action from the start even without the ball and made the most of their opportunities. We've had a lot of occasions this year that we completely dominated play and came out 1 or 2 goals on top. I've watched Barca play 10 or so times this year. They are in full control but rarely look as imperious in their play as our guys do regularly.
Part of the fun of all of this is that we can watch the same match and come out of it with completely different view points of what was going on during play. And we can both be right, because it is just our opinions based on what we are looking for.
Maybe they should've got closer to the goal, rather than speculating. I can''t see how anyone can call it unlucky.
Chelsea played some decent stuff last night, but were well off in the final third. They never really threatened, much.
I would especially hate Roma - mainly because you just know Dzeko would end up scoring against us.Order of preference:
1 Sevilla
2 Roma
3 Juventus
4 Liverpool
5 Real
6 Bayern
7 Barcelona
Juve versus Liverpool could be brutal for the latter, they seem to be just the kind of street smart team that would outwit and destroy LiverpoolJust done a quick random no frills draw in 30 seconds....none of this 60 minute shit the nearest thing to a special guest was Mrs Moon walking into the kitchen.
Juve v Liverpool
Munich v Madrid
Roma v Seville
Barca v City
Yeah just realized hahaAm I right in saying that Liverpool are the only side on that list that we have never faced in the Champions League?
Sure you went to the Blackburn promotion clincher we won 4-1 in 1999/2000 , and Rovers hit the post or bar probably about six times , i thought we were jammy as fuck to go in only 1-0 down at half time , i am so glad their speculating was that shit on the day :)
In my opinion, if Liverpool get Barcelona, Real Madrid or Juventus they are going out. I would fancy them against Roma and Sevilla. If they get us or Bayern it's hard to call but I'd fancy us over two legs. Still don't want us to draw them though which seems odd considering we are 21 points ahead of them in the league but I just hate going to Anfield.Juve versus Liverpool could be brutal for the latter, they seem to be just the kind of street smart team that would outwit and destroy Liverpool
