Semi finals (City v Real and A Madrid v Bayern)

[blackley macca]

Best chance of beating Real over two legs.

We struggle breaking teams like
Stoke down who put 10 men behind the ball and defend well, so can't see us beating Athletico.

Bayern and Arletico are two great teams, Real Madrid not so much IMO.

Real still don't play as a team and rely on Ronaldo too much. I'd fancy our chances if we drew Real.

I prefer Munich as a city. Had some great long weekends over there. Madrid wasn't much cop the couple of times I've been, so seeing as all three teams offer their own problems and difficulties I'm going with the one where I'm likely to have the most fun.

No one in his right mind wants Atletico. I'd rather play Real, a team just as bad at defending as we are. Atletico are probably the most organized team in Europe.

Exactly this! Anyone but Atleti!

Serious question. Isn't it time we stopped booing the Champions League anthem for the semis? I wasn't at the game on Tuesday but the BT coverage made sure that the booing was very loud on TV and then the subsequent volume of atmosphere during the game quite muted which worked perfectly for their agenda. I just think we have made our point and that continuing with it makes us look a little petty. I may well be in the minority but I think we should stop.

i'll take any team from the final 3 we may get. the only team i would have sighed out loud at drawing was Barca, so the rest dont worry me so much. its the semis and anything could happen.

the good thing about drawing athleti is they havent played against us before in the chumps league so they will be a bit unsure, not like they are strong 'ish' against Barca who they player on a regular basis.

if i had to choose i would go for real, the fuckers deserve to go out against us.....and the winner takes isco home with them!!!! :)

with the way atletico commit fouls, i wouldn't want to play them. Imagine the tackles on our glass canons

Making our point would be getting to the final and booing our hearts out in front of the watching world. UEFA are an awful organisation who have regularly shafted us. Even this week after a couple of smoke bombs they've opened more disciplinary action against us for alleged fireworks when there was nothing of the sort.
I hope it makes the execs sat in their comfy seats squirm whenever they hear it.

Surely the up-side to playing Atletico would be to somehow fanangle things and get Kolly on the plane back to Madrid whilst keeping Gabi?

It's time to boo even louder.
