Ashley Posted 16 December 2013 Posted 16 December 2013 Chelsea are the ones that always get the easy draws, theirs are certainly nearly always much more favourable than United. People saying they tweeted every possible outcome and then deleted the wrong ones. Yeah make a private account then make it public today.
Dan Posted 16 December 2013 Posted 16 December 2013 Agree with most but I think Arsenal could get through vs Bayern again. Bayern only just got through 3-3 last season winning on away goals but Arsenal have the confidence of going to Germany already this season and winning. Plus there's the confidence of being top of the league (currently and ignoring the one result this weekend). Should be a great tie, as should Man City vs Barca. Think PSG, Dortmund, Atletico, Galatasaray, Utd will go through. Mourinho got what he wanted with the reuniting with Drogba. Be careful what you wish for, Jose... I think you're under-estimating Bayern a bit. Arsenal have improved but Bayern are on another level to anyone else on the planet for me at the minute and I still think they'll see Arsenal off. They've a tendency to be very sloppy when they've nearly got the job done, but I still think that they'll outclass Arsenal. It'll be better than last year. People are under-estimating Barcelona as well. They'll have Messi back by the time they play Man City and I'd make them favourites, although Man City will give it a good go. I wouldn't be shocked if Man Utd are the only English side in the last eight, but I'll stick with two. Chelsea are the ones that always get the easy draws, theirs are certainly nearly always much more favourable than United. People saying they tweeted every possible outcome and then deleted the wrong ones. That'd make sense to be fair.
purpleronnie Posted 16 December 2013 Posted 16 December 2013 Cant see city or Arsenal going any further (nightmare draw), decent draws for Chelsea and Utd, but it'll be tough for them too.
goose2010 Posted 16 December 2013 Posted 16 December 2013 I'm sure Olympiakos fans will be pretty pleased with the draw

Arsenal have improved but Bayern are on another level to anyone else on the planet for me at the minute and I still think they'll see Arsenal off. Not under-estimating, just don't think it'll be as easy as some people make out for Bayern. Bayern are something else right now but Arsenal finally seem to have some togetherness and self-belief and confidence in each other. I didn't think they'd win & keep a clean sheet vs Dortmund earlier this season. Let's face it, stranger things have happened and I think Arsenal will give Bayern a good run for their money even if the Gunners do end up going out.
Ric Flair Posted 16 December 2013 Posted 16 December 2013 If Arsenal can get a proper finisher in in January then they stand a chance but it's a cruel draw for them, might help them in the league though.
howlinmadmurfdoc Posted 16 December 2013 Posted 16 December 2013 Even with Barca Man City and Arsenal Bayern we end up getting the united game on ITV
StanSP Posted 16 December 2013 Posted 16 December 2013 City can beat Barca. I don't think they will at Camp Nou though. Probably get similar scorelines and the tie will be separated by the odd goal.
Soar Fox Posted 16 December 2013 Posted 16 December 2013 Even with Barca Man City and Arsenal Bayern we end up getting the united game on ITV That's alright then, i'll be able to watch 2 good games on sky without having to listen to the god awful itv commentators.

Nah I've been very impressed by Arsenal this year but Bayern are incredible - they thumped Dortmund away. Wouldn't be surprised if Arsenal won the first leg 2-1 and Bayern won the second 3-1. City can beat Barca. Think Messi will make the difference in the end but it's definitely one of the more even ties.
Bobby Hundreds Posted 16 December 2013 Posted 16 December 2013 Arsenal just got humped by City and Napoli. They aren't good enough to beat Bayern.
Fox92 Posted 16 December 2013 Posted 16 December 2013 Hoping Uni have their usual deals on, so I can get into City v Barcelona for a cheaper price.
C-man Posted 16 December 2013 Posted 16 December 2013 Hoping Uni have their usual deals on, so I can get into City v Barcelona for a cheaper price. I think you are clutching at straws... I very much doubt they will have an offer for students for their first ever CL knockout game that just happens to be against Barcelona Costing up going to Zenit with Dortmund. Visa alone costs over a ton so I'd want to go for a week at least, anyone know anything about St. Petersburg and Moscow? Guessing they are far less of a dump than Marseille was last week. Now there's a sh1thole.
Dan Posted 17 December 2013 Posted 17 December 2013 Wouldn't bank on it... Dortmund definitely got the easiest tie of the lot. Zenit are absolutely shite.
C-man Posted 8 January 2014 Posted 8 January 2014 Fair play to Bayern. Fvcking joke from Arsenal as per though. http://www.fcbayern.de/de/tickets/news/2014/auswaertsspiel-bei-arsenal-london-ticket-info-aktuell.php? Particularly noteworthy is the fact that a large number of Bayern fans support us at every away game, not just the absolute highlights. The fact that this loyalty not only means such a high number of games and a great deal of time, but also clearly rips a big hole in the wallet. Bayern have therefore decided to subsidise the tickets for the away game at Arsenal with nearly € 90,000. Thus every Bayern fan who buys a ticket for the game on 19/02/2014 in London will pay only €45,00 (instead of the regular €75.00). This is intended to represent a small thank you for the great support of our followers in the calendar year 2013.

Fvcking joke from Arsenal as per though. http://www.fcbayern.de/de/tickets/news/2014/auswaertsspiel-bei-arsenal-london-ticket-info-aktuell.php? decent gesture. Wonder if clubs over here will cotton onto why everyone loves the bundesliga anytime soon.
Stadt Posted 9 January 2014 Posted 9 January 2014 More clubs should do that sort of thing, what's £90,000 to clubs?
Dan Posted 9 January 2014 Posted 9 January 2014 Probably a day of wages for Ribery/Robben. It's small-fry to say the least.

Dan Posted 9 January 2014 Posted 9 January 2014 Greed and nothing more but no doubt some expert will still defend it.
