March 21, 201411 yr I can't see past Bayern again. Honestly think Man Utd are in for a royal spanking, which could get embarrassing.
April 3, 201411 yr Author After the first legs: Man United 1-1 Bayern Munich Barcelona 1-1 Atletico Madrid PSG 3-1 Chelsea Real Madrid 3-0 Borussia Dortmund
April 3, 201411 yr Real definitely through, the other three are all (theoretically) up in the air. Don't really know what happened with Chelsea but would have been interesting to see how Eto'o would have done. They've got a very good chance if he's back for next week.

Don't really know what happened with Chelsea but would have been interesting to see how Eto'o would have done. They've got a very good chance if he's back for next week. I can't see Chelsea going through now. They're going to have to attack PSG from the off. At least they've got an away goal. Still got a good chance, but I expect PSG to at least score. Good result for Man Utd. I think Bayern paid them a little bit too respect, not sure they realised Man Utd are a mid table team now!
April 3, 201411 yr Bayern, Barca, Chelsea and Real to go through for me although I'd like to see Athletico beat Barca but I think they'll choke
April 3, 201411 yr My instinct still says Mourinho will pull through. PSG will miss the creativity that Zlatan brings and Blanc doesn't seem to trust some of his other creative players enough to start them.
April 3, 201411 yr Author Cavani through the middle rather than out wide might help the balance of the team though

Don't really know what happened with Chelsea but would have been interesting to see how Eto'o would have done. They've got a very good chance if he's back for next week. The man's losing it. Honestly think he's starting to struggle. He's no faith in any of his strikers bar Eto'o. Have a feeling he's playing a game with Roman!
April 8, 201411 yr It's so weird how he doesn't trust them, yet he does in dire needs. They play the winners of Bayern/Man Utd iirc? The good thing for me is the home game against them is sandwiched between the semi-finals!
April 8, 201411 yr i thought it was going to be one of those nights for Chelsea where a good start and lots of promise turned into nothing! Hitting the post twice!! But in the end (as usual) Mourinho's team through to the semis!
April 9, 201411 yr Author Still useful :D Demba Ba scoring the decisive goal. Who would have thought? It's so weird how he doesn't trust them, yet he does in dire needs. They play the winners of Bayern/Man Utd iirc? The good thing for me is the home game against them is sandwiched between the semi-finals! Semi Final draw hasn't been made yet. It's on Friday
April 9, 201411 yr No one seems surprised about Atletico. They'd probably offer Chelsea the most interesting challenge, although the other two draws are obviously loaded with history.
April 11, 201411 yr Author Atletico Madrid vs. Chelsea Real Madrid vs. Bayern Munich Sevilla vs. Valencia Benfica vs. Juventus
April 12, 201411 yr If you were a Chelsea fan, that's the draw you would take. Only Athletico are a better version of Chelsea and play a similar style, both on the counter attack. Going to be really interesting what happens with their goalkeeper. I hope he plays, he's more of an Athletico Madrid player than a Chelsea one, regardless of who outrightly owns him.
April 22, 201411 yr You can tell Atletico aren't used to dominating possession in big games - I've never seen a team cross the ball from pretty much anywhere in the final third. Did the same thing as against Barcelona and tried to get a lot going to the back post to exploit Cole and Azpilicueta's lack of height but Chelsea coped well with it. Could have really done with an away goal, Torres looked sharp but didn't often look like scoring. Will be difficult without Mikel and Lampard next week, as well as Cech and Terry being potentially out. Although Ivanovic will be back.
April 23, 201411 yr Real will take a 1-0 lead to Munich. Should have probably been more, Bayern had a couple of good chances in the last 20 minutes but Real could have been three up by half time. You'd fancy them to score one next week but you wouldn't expect them to concede three. All La Liga final?
