[Tonearm Terrorwrist]

because they had it last week

SBS need to know football exists in europe outside of liverpool, manure and le arse. atleast their 5 minute love affair with chel$ki is over

 

[NK Arsenal]

It's half-time in each game.

Arsenal 0-0 Milan
Sevilla 3-1 Fenerbahce
Barcelona 1-0 Celtic
Man Utd 1-0 Lyon

 

[pennywisealfie]

another thriller in the sevilla/fenerbache game, unfortunately Fenerbache won the match on penalties.

 

[NK Arsenal]

ARSENAL won at the San Siro.



Fenerbahce are the surprise packet of this years champions league.

 

[lolesi]

Not really..

They have some class players in Roberto Carlos, Kezman, Appiah, Lugano and Alex, any team that gets a trip to Turkey will be in for one hell of a game, a hard place to visit.

they do have some good players, however did anyone here seriously think they would make the quarters?

 

[Russell Crowe's Band]

thats a big win for arsenal.

looks to me as if the 4 english clubs will be progressing.

 

[pennywisealfie]

i tipped sevilla but it was a hard decision, i knew fenerbache would be tough

A great win at that, could have beat them 7-0 on aggregate tho

 

[Dragooner]

7-0 is an unserstatement. We dominated both legs by so much that 2 goals doesn't show our dominance, and to dominate at the San Siro is a MASSIVE effort! Well done to the boys.

Hleb should have scored a hatt-trick at least over the two legs, you just gotta hit it son, stop looking for the wonder ball and just have a go.

Anyway will talk more bout that in the Gooner thread.

As for Fernebache, they are truly a force to be reckoned with. If you've ever seen Lugano play he is a bloody rock at the back. Never puts a foot wrong.

Alex is one of the best AM's in the world at the moment. Has been linked to Chelsea and Real Madrid recently.

Kezman is in the form of his life, as is Aurelio.

All looking good for Fernebache. Wonder who they'll draw...

 

[Abz]

The Round of 8 is going to be bloody tough for us.

 

[Dragooner]

Arsenal
Barcelona
Fernebache
Manchester Utd

So far. Out of those 4 clubs ALL will be hoping to play the Turks, or a non-Messi Barca side.

Out of the 4 remaining, those 4 would definetly like to see the follwing go through,

Schalke
Olympiakos
Liverpool
Roma.

Tipping

Porto
Chelsea
Toughy
Toughy.

Set to be a good round tommorow.

 

[fish eel]

Porto
Chelsea
'pool
real to progress.

apparantley madrid papers have been printing jokes about totti
one of them is he walks to his wife and says 'i just finished the puzzle.' his wife says 'it took you 3 weeks' to which totti replies 'but it says 3-5 years on the box'

 

[Dragooner]

:lol:

I heard it differently a couple years ago.

Robbie Keane goes up to Thierry Henry and shouts 'I FINISHED THE PUZZLE IN 55 DAYS!' Henry looks puzzled and responds, 'You're nearly as f*cked up as the team you play for', Robbie replies and says, 'No I'm not, it said 2-5 years on it'

:lol:

Chelsea

I think/hope Inter will get passed the scousers even if they are 2-nil down.

Here's hoping that the reds f**k it up (not for the first time this season)

 

[pennywisealfie]

i want roma to win tomorrow, but if they dont then i so want to play real in the quarters!

 

[Tonearm Terrorwrist]

they do have some good players, however did anyone here seriously think they would make the quarters?

you'll find i did

Fenerbahce v Sevilla - fenerbahce to surprise most of us and KO sevilla in both games

fenerbahce are no surprise. top squad and play very attacking football. i'd be worried whoever gets drawn with them

 

[Bumble]

Oh btw..Gordon Strachan, wtf are you thinking? We need to win by 2 goals at Camp Nou so you play 1 striker!

Then, when you finally bring another one on you sub the other one off! Finally bringing on a second striker with 10 minutes to go...honestly, wtf.

McDonald, leading scorer in Scotland plays 5 minutes in a game where we knew we were gonna need 2/3 goals from the outset. What a joke.

 

[Dragooner]

Manager's make me sick sometimes...

you were never going to win bumble. I'd say strachan's eyes were more on the league where you have a battle.
