Man Utd v Bayern

[YateleyRoyal]

Not quite the best draw for Chelsea there, but not far off it.

Man Utd v Bayern

oof!

agreed. they avoided Bayern, Real Madrid & Barcelona which I think is what they would have wanted.

Barca v Ath Madrid
Real v Dortmund
PSG v Chelsea
United v Bayern


Final tie is the stand out tie, IMO - always a classic fixture, bringing back memories of 99 and more recently, 2010 when Robben banged in a great volley in a pulsating QF tie.

I'm calling a semi final line up of

Barca v Chelsea
Real v Bayern

With Chelsea edging Bayern 2-1 in the final (Backed them at 12s to win outright, earlier this week)

[Pepe the Horseman]

Like the look of that draw

[soggy biscuit]

Chelsea, Bayern Munich, Barcelona & Real Madrid to progress to the semi's

I recks Atletico will beat Barca.

[Royalclapper]

Perhaps the only good thing for Man Utd is that Bayern Munich will have the burden of all the pressure being on them with being favourites and Utd being poor this season.

You'd think Real Madrid will see Dortmund off over two games, Barca v Athletico Madrid could be a tight contest.

Can see Chelsea edging PSG by the odd goal if Mourinho does his usual 'wear 'em down and grab a goal routine'.

I think that's the end of the road for the two English sides.

£5 on both United & Chelsea to win it after those draws.
