Last 8 Draw

[bizzle10]

Great draw that Porto will be harder to break down than last time but we should go through. The city/spurs tie could work in our favour in the title race

Porto are a good side. We can't afford to let our guard down regardless of what happened last year. Everyone's got to be up for this, the fans likewise. Got to create a crazy atmosphere at Anfield. 

Yep. Julio Cesar and his wonderful hands have shown tremendous character, but now it’s up to the team and the fans. 

 

[Anubis]

I'd forgotten this was happening, which shows you how relaxed I was about the whole thing. As good a draw as we could expect really. Not an enviable draw for the other English teams. I'll think about the semi only if we get past Porto.

[Juniper]

Great draw, couldn’t have gone any better really. 

[Anubis]

Meanwhile, over on Spurscommunity.....

Is that guy doing the draw Ranieri’s brother or something?

 

You know it’s going to be Barca or Juve #itsinevitablelads

 

draw the fucking balls already!!

 

My interest in Julio Cesar stands at zero

 

What happened to the good all days when you’d have this chick with big boobs and a low cut dress doing the draw? Life isn’t fair.

 

Get the Feck on with it!!

 

Always thought he had a really fat head.

 

I want us home in the second leg as Im not going to be able to go to the match if we are at home first.

 

Aand we're off. Only 12 minutes of faff beforehand, must be a record.

 

Ajax v Juve. One all-English tie guaranteed.

 

Jammy bastards

 

Oh F off Liverpool - Porto

 

Pool v Porto. FFS lucky gits again

 

Liverpool the jammy twats

 

Yeah sure.

 

Hi Barca

 

fkn kissed Dippers, fuck off

 

FFS

 

what a surprise, easy for Liverpool again

 

Spurs v City.

Of course.

 

FUCK OFF, Liverpool with the easiest draw YET AGAIN! And fuck off to us vs City. Cya.

 

Couldn't be worse, lol

 

We get fucked. Fucking fucked. Fuck.

 

 

[Anubis]

And Spurs fans starting conspiracies about themselves....

Will make a mockery of the competition if Man City win it and then UEFA ban them next season. They wont want that, I'm expecting the ref to be on our side with any luck

 Steve0 looking on the bright side though.

At least City, Barca and Juve avoided each other. Could've been worse?

[Anubis]

Painfully average long ball team?

Why on earth do you do this to yourself?

It is total lunacy for anyone to be that confident. Even though the RS look a very plainly average, long ball team when watching them, they do not concede many goals at all and when you don't concede goals - you've got a chance against anyone. 

They've practically got a bye into a champions league semi final with this draw. Why anyone here is doing cartwheels at this news I'll never know

Steve0 has had more time to apply his intellect to the situation.

Four extra games and no chance of beating Barcelona over two legs. 

VVD is good at dealing with balls int he air but a bit of an oaf on the floor and incredibly one footed. Messi sitting on his left all game will terrorize him.

[Dr Nowt]

It’s total lunacy to build your enjoyment of football, let alone life, exclusively around what the rs do. 

 

Don’t let that stop you being a mentalist.

[aws]

"when watching them". As if they don't watch every minute of our games. 

[Jose Jones]

Decent draw.

I’d say Man City have got a better one, but you can’t get to the final from here without playing someone good.

Hopefully we get through and play Barca in the semi.

Liverpool east draw again! What planet do these gimps live on we've faced them all!

Don't forget we got the over the hill, average age of 50, Bayern team in the last round.

Huge if true. Hope we kept the receipt. 

[Bobby Hundreds]

VVD an oaf on the floor. I've heard it all.

'......a bit of an oaf on the floor....'  I actually laughed out loud at this. This is a guy (assuming he's not a WUM) that supports a team with Zouma and Keane in their defence.

PSG

Napoli

Red Star Belgrade

Bayern Munich

Porto

 

Yeah, dead easy. It's not like we've played a proper European giant such as Rapid Vienna.

[johnsusername]

And that Tottenham fan - how exactly did we get the "easiest draw again" when they got Dortmund and we got Bayern in the last round?

I work with alot of them.

Dortmund were top of the league when they first played them. They were better than Barca. Fact.

[TheDrowningMan]

Good draw on the face of it, but for the time being there’s a nagging fear of the fates conspiring to spawn United through against Barcelona and us out at the hands of Porto.

Then we'll have played shite and have no one to blame but ourselves. 

 

Porto are muck.   No where near the quality of the rest of the teams,  Ajax aside & many of the teams that have exited.

Thing is, when you play another English team in both cup and league consecutively, especially in Europe, the results usually tend to be mixed don’t they.

 

Hopefully them playing Spurs so many times in quick succession has an impact on the league game between them.

[Dr Nowt]

And fuck what the others, especially Everton, think of our run.

 

We could beat Porto, Barca and Juve en route to lifting it and we’d have jammed a lucky draw, spawned each game and paid off UEFA to win the tournament.
