Surely there will be a least one all English semi (easy now) in the quarters.

Will be good for us if there is as those games will be huge affairs that will cause both sides to struggle in the league games around the tie.

Everything’s coming up Millhouse :barscarf:
Unless It's citeh and the Mousers who play Manure and the Chavs respectively around the tie I think :(

I've a feeling he'll bottle it before then. 8)

Ribery was pulled up for a non existent offside just before Mane's first goal. But on reflection even though he had an acre of room in front of him he would have held up the ball to attempt to beat the full back at least three times before shooting straight at a central defender. Liverpool were the better team but it was a mistake ridden game made worse by Steve MacManman .
Bayern are a shadow of the side they once were. Put in perspective they are battling for the title with a side that lost 4-0 to Spuds. Even with Ronaldo in their team I hope Juve win it...
JFT39..

Whilst it would be fitting for the JFT39 side of things the thought of Ladyboy winning it and all the snowflake JCL sawker fanboys drooling all over themselves and coming out with shite like "he is the greatest player ever" whilst ignoring the fact he is and always has been a diving cheating selfish self centred cùnt is pretty stomach turning.

If ladyboy gets injured or suspended and missed the final then I too would like to see Juve win it.

The bayern and scum results just emphasis the state German football is currently in. they are both average at the very best as evidence by the scum taking them apart and mickeys thrashing them away.

this bayern team has just overhauled Dortmund so it shows how poor that Dortmund side really is.

Another factor is the fact that Jordan Sancho is a star player there. yes hes probably a good player, that hes a star there just shows up the state and standard of the bundesliga currently. Likewise nelson tearing it up, a guy who hopefully will be a good player for us but at 19 starring in the bundesliga just shows how poor the standard is at the moment,

the media are making a big thing of German scouts attending lots of academy games at English clubs and that its a pathway to first team football and development for young British players, which it is. but only because the standard is poor. German clubs acknowledge that their own academies are not producing much talent right now so are looking at England. its just shows what desperate measures they are resorting to, and reflects poorly on the standard of the bundesliga right now.

im glad the victims won, its another good side in the scums way. I would fully expect the scum to beat bayern had they got them, whereas the victims should easily beat the scum over 2 legs should it come to that.

Whoever gets Porto is guaranteed a semi (it never gets old for me) so fingers crossed it's not that lot, as long as they avoid that, whoever they get, it's game over time.

GAME. FUCKING. OVER.

I see a repeat of the final four years ago with Juve vs Barcelona again.

No English teams in the final would be perfect.

"Sarri wants to face Napoli in final" @ BBC

"We can feel the possibility of winning this title," said Emery. @ BBC

"My dream goes on - my dream is to retire with a trophy in my hands... there’s a long way to go but with performances like that, we can compete." Let's make it happen. Petr Cech

So long as he plays no part in the last few matches.


Napoli it is

Away leg first
