So you would honestly rather draw Real instead of Porto?
Because the goal is to win the entire thing. Everyone except the winner is a loser. SPORTS!
Tbh itâs like Arsene said, whether you get a bad draw or not, you feel less guilty about it when you finish top. We managed to do our bit so Lady Luck can do her thing and we should still be content.
Do they offer odds for us to draw Bayern/ Real Madrid today ? Given its a near certainty I wouldnât mind cashing in by outlaying my mortgage redraw on it ? My prediction for the draw is as follows⌠Real Madrid vs Arsenal, Bayern Munich vs Juve, PSG vs Barca, Atletico vs Man City, Sevilla vs Napoli, Leicester vs Leverkusen, Dortmund vs Benfica & Porto vs Monaco.
Thats a combination of glamour ties, chucked with a couple all average ties so Real Madrid can get a favourable QF opponent and a rematch of the 2004 CL final for history purposes.
Well Real Madrid is the team weâre most likely to draw, according to statisticians, but not sure you can actually bet on it - I also wouldnât advise it The draw Gods are going to be kind to us this year, I just know it.
Iam only worried about madrid. I think we can beat bayern over two legs. This bayern team is no way near as good as the one we played in last few seasons (even then we won one of the game of the tie) and this arsenal is much better than the one which played bayern in last few seasons. So just need to avoid Real Madrid.
Ah yes, Champion League draw day, the day when you can get a return flight to Team Xâ city for ÂŁ50 about half an hour before the draw and the same flight about ÂŁ200 moments after. All good fun tho
Good point. Might be wise if we book our train tickets to Cardiff now then
More chance of Arsenal getting there for a rugby final
Personal draw preference:
- Real Madrid 2. Sevilla 3. Munchen Bayern 4. Leverkusen 5. Benfica 6. Porto
Personally I enjoyed Lisbon as a city more than Madrid.
Think we might get Sevilla
Arsenal Sevilla would be my dream tie.
An interesting matchup and not one Arsene will take lightly either.
But they arenât as much better than us compared to say Real Madrid.
I think we are pretty even with them and itâs not a tie we have seen yet so that is the one iâm hoping for.
Personally I enjoyed Lisbon as a city more than Madrid.
Me too. Iâm not a fan of Madrid at all, found myself very bored last time I was there.
I want Sevilla too. Not a walkover, but also not a team who beats us 4-1, or so you would think . Should be a very interesting match-up.
I hope for an easier team ofcourse, but I would love to face Real Madrid so much.
At the moment I want anyone but Bayern. Real Madrid would be a proper blockbuster of a tie.
Madrid would turn us over
Draw time?
1pm I think
