'Champions' League Draw...

[Silent Bob]

like last year you mean?

Chelsea scraped through last time, Barca are even better this year. Essien's gonna need to do some SERIOUS legbreaking to give Chelsea a chance.

Apart from everyone's obvious Chelsea bias, why do you think Barca will go thru?
I think Chelsea are the favourites, especially with no Xavi playing

Becuase they are by some stretch the best side in the world.

I have no Chelsea bias.

Hi Dave! How's the head?

 

[Icy Gull]

When are these games being played? I'd ALMOST be tempted to give the Albion a miss to watch Chelsea v Barca, and I never thought I'd say something like that

Yes but it doesnt work like that, barca where a better side than chelsea last year.

 

[perseus]

Three sensational ties.

 

[Fourteenth Eye]

Ha ha ....Oh dear

 

[keaton]

I've watched most Barca and Chelsea games, and i'd say Chelsea probably shade and without Xavi they don't look anywhere near as good

I'm getting my money on Lyon.

 

[Silent Bob]

Liverpool at 11/1. I'll have some of that.

Hes banned for BOTH games

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

Liverpool at 11/1. I'll have some of that.

thats a good bet i think ill join you.

 

[Gwylan]

Lyon and Liverpool look like good bets to me ...



... but I backed Brighton to beat Reading so what do I know?

 

[Silent Bob]

Hes banned for BOTH games

SO? You reckon Mourinho won't send him round RONALDINHO'S house the night before the game to bash his head in?

 

[Marshy]

Lyon is a cracking bet at 10s i agree Trigger

 

[Silent Bob]

Yes but it doesnt work like that, barca where a better side than chelsea last year.

True. I think having the second leg at home suits Barca.

 

[Northstander]

With Essien out for next two european games, Robben may be back.

I can't see Barca losing this one again!!

 

[Simster]

Liverpool at 11/1. I'll have some of that.

Mental odds for a team who haven't conceded a goal in 8 games against one of the poorer teams in the draw.

An each way punt could well feature.
