CJGJ Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 Any side with the worlds best players in it has a chance Barcelona with Messi and Juventus with Ronaldo are on their day top class and they have a good supporting cast Manchester City are the up and coming future European champions according to many and have a number of excellent players Liverpool reached last seasons final and can they go one step further ?....why not You've got Spurs who can be a top side on their day and as for Manchester United well the least said the better but a team with confidence instilled by a new manager can cause a surprise but maybe the last round was that surprise Ajax and Porto are going to be the outsiders in the last 8 and lets be honest they will be the sides the others want to face but Ajax showed they can compete not only in the last 16 but in their group performances. Porto are a side that seem to reach their level and exit the competition..this may be it for them depending on the draw. We can talk all day about who will win it but the draw on Friday will determine that almost as much as the quality of the sides in the draw.

The Old Tolbooth Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 That was some result for Liverpool tonight, first time we've ever won there, I still don't think we have enough to win it but if the draw lands right you never know, I said the same last season too and we almost won it, only falling at the final hurdle.

Englands three main forward players, Sterling, Kane and Rashford, are all playing and scoring in the knock out phase of the Champions league. If that experience against top players doesn’t improve their performance or at the very least their confidence nothing will. That will benefit England if it hasn’t already.

Mikey1874 Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 I'd say Barcelona and Juventus are the favourites. All the English teams have done well and do have good players. Salah, Kane, Pogba, De Bruyne could all play for the best clubs and they are backed up by strong squads. The draw is key. And of course it's now just 5 games. Need to do really well in just 2 or 3 of them. But a little early to talk of English dominance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just wonder when the actual cost of it will appear on the club's balance sheets, as I'm guessing the money to cover the £1 billion cost has to be taken into account at some point. I only say that because I either heard or read something recently which seemed to be indicating that despite the cost of the stadium Tottenham had still made a profit in excess of £100 million, which is difficult to compute to an extent. Eventually I'm guessing their accounts will have to show a significant negative unless all the money came in as gifts.

CJGJ Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 Stadium does look fantastic but for a billion pounds it should It had to be done for Spurs to move on but they wil feel some pain financially over the next few years As to the match..there won't be much in it and perhaps a score draw Liverpool will need to remember just because you knocked out Porto last season it does not automatically mean you will do so the next but they are excellent away from home with the attacking threat they have so if they win and hopefully not losing an away goal they will hold every chance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
