c/league draw

Post by nuttygoonerpaul »

A. Chelsea vs Schalke
B. Man Utd vs Barca
C. Liverpool vs Fener
D. Arsenal vs Roma

That was the draw made in this mornings rehearsal, what an awesome draw that is for the English teams. I geneuinely see all English teams going through there.

The semi-finals were also drawn and they were A vs B and C vs D. That would mean a possible United vs Chelsea bore and Arsenal vs Liverpool semi line up, and in turn an Arsenal vs United final. Wow.

It's a shame that the law of averages will work its ways and probably draw English teams against eachother now.

P.S. Chelsea get the easy draw again!

I'm not good with stats, but I;'d have thought it's almost statistically impossible for 2 English teams not to meet :S

I'd definitely take that draw this morning, but I can guarantee we'll be making a trip to Manchester, Liverpool or West London instead!

Thats annoying. I would have taken that draw all day long. We're going to get an English team I f*cking know It. I REALLY don't want the mancs. If It has to be English I'd have Chelsea. Schalke or Roma Ideally.

I want to avoid Manure and preferebly Chelski but will take any other draw. Liverpool i can see us beating and the rest of Europe should hold no fear now we dispatched Milan's ageing giants.

If it is fixed (which surely squeaky clean UEFA would never do hey) then I am positive we will get Chelsea now I have thought about it!

It makes sense logisticaly that fans are not going up and down the country so easier organisation and two local derbies hence maximum revenue!

:shock:

I want Barca or Fenerbahce, purely and selfishly because of the away trips! I also believe we could take either of them. I'm not thrilled about any of the English sides, though I think we could take any of them, particularly Liverpool .

There is absolutly no doubt in my mind that at least one english side will face another. Platini and his anti English croonies won't risk an all English dominating semi final. The fact that the 'rehersal draw' didn't Include an all English tie only heightens that belief. On the other hand, I also can't see all english sides facing each other in this round. I can't bare the wait, I want it done now!
