vegas-voss Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 I hope it's Barca v Tottenham as one of the ties.I think they could be great games because Tottenham are so open there are bound to be goals a plenty.Don't think Spurs would have much chance though but the games could be very entertaining.

Agreed, i dont think Spurs would stand much of a chance but could be entertaining. Although i reckon Spurs would end up playing like the did against AC at home rather than the free flowing attacking football they adopted in the group games. Being a Chelsea man i hope we draw Schalke although i reckon thats who most teams would fancy. Real Madrid - Barca anyone? That would be a cracker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man Utd have shown they are more than capable of going down to Chelsea`s level and Schalke are not a great side probably the worst left in the draw imo, the rest are all to be avoided including Spurs as with the defensive players missing from United`s team im sure Fergie will be delighted at missing them in the draw.

I think you will find that more recently Chelsea have had the beating of Man United. Schalke and Shakhtar are probably the 2 weakest sides left in the competition. Man United would have preferred Spurs in the draw, as they will reckon they have the beating of them. Inter arent the team they were last season. Scraped through at the expense of school boy defending from Bayern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly dont think with the players out injured for United that Spurs would have been a favorable draw. Shaktar are the surprise package for me, they may give Barca a fright.

Alex or Ivanovic will do a good enough job in there. Course they don't hold any surprises, doesn't make them an easy draw though. I'm sure Blackpool would be saying the same thing if they drew Man Utd instead of Gothenburg in a game because they know how Man Utd play It doesn't mean that they'll have any better chance of winning. Schalke were the easy draw of the round. I guarantee Man Utd would have fancied playing Tottenham a lot more than playing Chelsea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont see how having players missing would change that Barca will have far too much for Shaktar. Reckon Barca will win 3 or 4-0 in the first leg leaving Shaktar with far too much to do.

Spurs would have no chance in a semi against them. Mind you, if Real upset Barca, a final between them and Chelsea at Wembley might also end in a surprise. Don't discount Chelsea's chances of winning it this year.

Eldar Hadzimehmedovic Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 Can't shake the feeling the whole thing just opened up for Mourinho. Take care of Spurs, do to Bartha in the semis what he did last year and then beat Chelsea in the final in a scrappy match or on penalties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
