of the choices presented real because the others make my stomach turn and even maureen can't change that. but they would be 3rd choice out of the remaining 8 though, shaktar being #1 and then inter.
The thread that nobody posted in.
Can someone put Inter up there, please
If Inter win, then we will stop hearing this babble about Barcelona being the greatest team in all of sporting history.
Tottenham to beat Real and Barcelona if they want to get to the final, don't have to worry about them
Chelsea-United will be a great distraction.
So we would still have faced Barca in the QF if we topped the group, assuming the fates are the same Oh well maybe it would be a blessing in disguise if we won the league this season.
So it will be
Real v Spurs
Chelsea v Manure
Barca v Shakthar
Inter v Schalke
Winner of Q4 plays Winner of Q2
I predict SF being Real v Barca and Chelsea v Inter.
Final Barca v Inter with Barca winning it as revenge.
So long Spurs and one of either United or Chelsea though the chances of the winner of United / Chelsea making the final look good....
Shit. Chelsea are going to win it aren't they?
Hmm, I was hoping United would get an easier draw followed by Barca in the semis, but a QF tie vs Chelsea should be grueling enough. A possible Inter semi final would be tough enough too.
Barca vs Real SF - that would be class.
Great draw!!!
Nice draw! Two games with Chelsea should take a lot out of Man U and Spurs have Real and Barca before the final.
Even if one of Chelsea/Man U wins this, they'll have to beat the other one and Inter and Barca/Madrid to do so and I don't think I'd begrudge a team who wins all those ties.
Hope United get past Chelsea.
If one of the two were to win the whole thing, I'd prefer United for the sake of the London European rivalry, and the CL semifinal fixtures are going to sandwich our game against United at the Emirates.
Oh, and having thought about it for a while I think I'd prefer for Barca to win it, out of that lot.
I don't see the reasoning for wanting Madrid to do it over them. Barca may have their share of odious ones, but they also have Guardiola, play great football and though they spend, they've got nothing on Real's absurdity.
The smugness of Mourinho would be unbearable if Real won it, and who wants to see Ronaldo preening about with another winners medal?
If it's the Cesc thing, then you really need to cast your mind back to the days when Thierry was here in his pomp. We may have sold him to Barca once he was past his best, but it was Real who hassled us every summer for years.
The other three require no explanation for not being preferred.
Top of my list are Barca and Spurs. Both odious clubs. United and Chelsea next. None of those 4 should win this thing.
I don't care who wins from the remaining teams.
Delighted with the draw, hoping Spurs get absolutely stuffed.
This may be wishful thinking, but I think Shakhtar could give Barca a run. Barca had trouble when they went to Kazan a season ago, and you gotta think their players won't fancy a leg in the Ukraine.
Hoping that Man United beat Chelsea, primarily because I think Chelsea would be more dangerous against the continental sides.
How would you people feel about a Mephistopheles like bargain?
Spurs win the CL, we win the PL.........
No.

That would be a painful impossible deal to make.
If part of it were to ensure that they finish outside of the top four and that Harry would be sacked having being found guilty of some heinous crime, and if it subsequently transpired that they had been involved in some match fixing corruption that saw them banned I might just accept the bargain.
Realistically though it would be too much to bear if they did win a title that we have yet to win.
Can see Chelsea winning this stupid cup.

Us not winning the Premier League and Spuds not winning the Champions League would be business as usual.
Spuds winning the CL would be the beginning of a lifetime nightmare.

That's my gut feeling.
i would never being willing to accept a PL title for us and CL win for spuds. that's a fuckin disaster. I would be willing to accept 2 PL titles for them and 1 CL win for us before that option. first team in london to win the european cup trumps premier league title any day.
