Assume it is a level playing field (it won't be).

Then Dortmund is a good draw.
But then Munich or PSG is as tough as it gets. 50/50.

On the other side I make Chelsea favs for the final.
Dippers to beat a fading Real.
Chelsea to beat the over hyped Dippers.

Us Vs. Chelsea in the final - we would be slight favs.

But it will not be a level playing field.

So it comes down to will the powers that be:
Choose Real or the Dippers?
Most likely the Dippers as Real are to far of the pace.
Who ever they back will get to the final.

On our side they will back Munich over PSG and us.

That leaves a Munich Vs. Dipper final with the authorities backing Munich so a comfortable win for Munich.

I am looking forward to dumping Sancho out of the CL.
And letting Haaland see close up how good we are.

I can’t believe people are so confident of beating Dortmund. Talk of what position they are in their league is irrelevant - Lyon were in a similar position at the time we lost to them.

Probably one of the better draws we could get, but as a lot of you like to hang on every word Pep says - let’s not look past Dortmund.

Whatever team we got it was going to be a tough draw.

2 things we need to get right, pep with the tactics and then the players out on the pitch not playing like deer in headlights, which has happened before.

I'm not confident but optimistic. We got the best defence in that competition, I can't think of any defender comes close to Dias.
For that reason, with no Pep brainfarts, I'm optimistic

At least we have the home side advantage in Budapest , having already played there twice recently.

After todays events ( lockdown stays in Germany), I can't see Angela letting the lads loose in Dortmund.

Madrid will beat Scouse2, Scouse are struggling at the moment they have too many players out of form ( or off the Caffeine - whichever ).

To answer your question Hazy, I love the guy. But I also love my brother and we fight all the time. We’ve never had a more frustrating manager than Pep, because he is the best - so when he does have a brain fart I just can’t understand it.

But I’m actually glad we have the best manager in the world here.

I don't like him at all and wont cry when he eventually fucks off, unlike some on here, who will be on suicide watch when that day comes.

I wouldn't want him to go anytime soon though...........as I'm not fuckign stupid.

I think some fans pick and choose what quotes to believe from Pep. The finishing for example - he’s said a few times we need to be better at finishing.

I think when you stick to the 'when he gets it right' he gets all the credit and plaudits and 'when he gets it wrong' he deserves the opposite.

I stick to that principle but there are fans that lick his every word and every action and try and justify any failing he has and then usually slate any fan who who doesn't follow suit.
