siao liao, barcelona
I hope Bayern Munich vs Liverpool
Man Utd vs Chelsea
Arsenal vs Villarreal
Porto vs Barcelona !!!
Like that more balance .
Too bad one pair of the 4 English teams will meet each other .... i cannot believe all the English 4 meet the rest of the 4 differently .If really like that ... very kelong leh ...
Still Liverpool , i think .... along with Man Utd , the strongest .
The rest ..... no match for this 2 teams .
Barcelona looked good in Spain , like Real , but when against English teams , they'll not be allowed to play as they like .
Like Liverpool , English teams tends to up the match tempo and ruin the Spanish's usual rhythm .
if man utd vs liverpool
then the match on saturday will be the first of 3 matches
if liverpool vs arsenal
then arsenal will be WWE and thrash talk about revenge for last season

one thing for sure, the monkey united always seem to get luckiest pick of lesser threat opponents. n the old faggot still can complaining how they r being ill-treated of having worse draws.
Actually i dun mind facing stronger opposition rather than a weaker ones ....
Eliminate the better , later matches thus will be easier .
Now seeing Villarreal playing Ath.Madrid , not very good this Villarreal , just a QF calibre , nothing more than that .
Base on ranking , i would say ( exclude Liverpool ) , i would say ...
1.Man Utd still the best team around .
2.Barcelona
3. Arsenal / Bayern Munich / Chelsea among the same strength .
4 Weaker teams are Porto and Villarreal .
As what the old Scouser will say : "Bring on any team for Liverpool , we aren't afraid anyone ! "
We will be UCL Champion !!! Again .
Just arrived !
Liverpool vs Chelsea ! 3rd time in 3 seasons .
Man Utd vs Porto
Arsenal vs Villarreal
Bayern vs Barcelona !!
lolx since like Chelsea still cant get away from Liverpool
wah lao, bayern barcelona.
i think chelsea will win under hiddink
somemore essien is back
i think chelsea will have their revenge this time becos of the hiddink factor.
I expect a Man U v Chelsea/Barca final.
chelsea n pool seem cant avoid each other destiny.
I think the most exciting match should be barca bayern, followed by chelsea pool.
It would be mouth watering to see ribery and messi in action. Man u's path on paper seems the easiest. But who knows arsenal might beat them if they meet in semis.
Mouth watering!!
I hope u guys don't be complacent or under-estimate Chelsea .... In UCL , complacency is the most dangerous weapon .
We might be in the right form at the right moment , Chelsea seemed to be lucky enough that their midfield general of Michael Essien was back for them a fortnight away . Let's pray hard from now to May , we'll get all our players fit and ready !!!
porto
Hiddink could in for some preparations .... he well prepared Korea into the World Cup , then well prepared Russia into the Euro Cup .... so his preparation always pay off well .
Hope he don't have enough time and players for the game against us .
I did observe that the old Mourniho's Chelsea are a much more hungry load of players , starting from Grant , the players lost the appetite to win and goals since .... Hiddink did brought some confidence back , but still old Mourinho still possess more threat than current squad .
essien and in form drogba should not be underestimated.
interesting champ league fixture ahead.
if liverpool managed to get a good result against chelsea, they will have to deal with either barca or bayer munich before thinking about the final.
the good thing is that benitez hardly tinker too much against strong opponent and i hope he stays that way.
that's the quarter draw.. how about the semi draw? which winner play which winner?
