   Just the draw we wanted after our half assed approach to the tournament for over a year now. Hopefully no United fans will sing Viva Ronaldo songs on the day, lol.

    Good draw to have, what with City being out.

    If we can conquer Madrid, we’ll know we may be good enough to go on and win it.

    If we can’t, we’ve only played two more games in Europe than our title rivals. More or less cancels out the fatigue issue.

    Got to beat the best at some point if you’re going to win it.

    samuel - united WE stand says:

    Goodness fuck… We’re going to see the real cunt in jose now. Players pulling out imaginary cards and diving. Madrid are favourites despite our home advantage but anything can happen in the champions league. If united pull this one out of the bag then we are,dancing but i see a lot of rollercoaster drama coming, hold onto your seats people.

    Subtexts a-plenty, but the one to watch for me is that this could be the tie that makes a man out of Rafael.

    If we progress, it will not be without 180 minutes of concentration, confidence and quality from the little man.

    Reading the Spanish press, it looks like the chances of Jose being there in February are slim.

    Concerned about the leaky defence.. hopefully by February Vidic will have an extended run of games and solidify our defence, furthermore with kagawa back he can rediscover his Borussia Dortmund form to add to our amazing attack, we will be formidable. On the draw fuck yeah! I’ve been waiting for this tie ever since Ronaldo left, if we can’t defend go kamikaze on these fuckers!

    AC Milan v Barcelona
    Real Madrid v Manchester United

    this 4 are the strongest… we will see final before final…United, RM and Barca…Milan is not our level…but because of history…lets give them a chance…
    Sometimes i think that they already decided who will play with who…because, you can see that all teams who play each other, are similary strong…
    If we beat RM…then we can lose in quater final, i don t care…
    If we talk about money i want see us in final, but we will meet there Barca again and lose…

    Haven’t really payed attention to the draw. All I know is
    that we’ve drawn Madrid and Arsenal have Bayern.
    Anyone know who City drew?

    slim says:

    This is going to be big. The lads will be up for it ,SAF too. Cant wait.
    I tell you now,battle for places is gonna much heated. Ah,if players like Clevs,Jones pick up form and maintain that level, we’re in for a trest. Rafa too could be huge. Léta hope we’d have a settled no.1 by then
