[Frogfish]

Round dates
Quarter-final: April 7 and April 14
Semi-final: April 28 and May 5
Final: Wednesday, May 18 - St. Jakob-Park, Basel

Listed in the order I'd rank them at this moment in time :

Dortmund
Sevilla (been there, done that, very experienced at this stage and playing well)
Liverpool
Shakhtar Donetsk
Villarreal
Sparta Prague
Braga
Athletic Bilbao

We have a very real chance in this competition if we can avoid Dortmund until the final.

That's a fairly strong line up. None are particularly easy, but the way we're playing I think we can beat any of them.

 

[rurikbird]

Please no Dortmund or Sevilla. Villareal is strong too.

 

[Buddha]

Dortmund vs Sevilla please.

 

[Rosco]

We're getting Dortmund

 

[Judge Jules]

One result last night which made me sit up and take notice was Lazio 0, Sparta Prague 3, so my bet is we're off to Czecho next round.

I hope so. I took a relative of my wifes to the Etihad last week for the City v Villa game and he's a season ticket holder at Sparta and promised he'd sort out tickets if we get drawn against each other.

Dortmund's the final match.

 

[Pesam]

Wolfsburg v Real Madrid
Bayern Munich v Benfica
Barcelona v Atletico Madrid
Paris St-Germain v Manchester City

Wolfsburg v Real Madrid
Bayern Munich v Benfica
Barcelona v Atletico Madrid
Paris St-Germain v Manchester City

Going to be a couple tasty semifinals but this round is largely meh.

Yeah, only the Barca v AM game looks really tasty.

 

[RedStar]

Going to be a couple tasty semifinals but this round is largely meh.

Yeah those are all fairly uninspiring but Bayern v Juve was worthy of a final. I reckon City with beat PSG and the other 3 usual suspects will come through unscathed

 

[Comical Aly]

This set is so Europa League.

 

[Mystic]

Sporting Braga (Portugal) v Shakhtar Donetsk (Ukraine)

Two of the easier opponents gone 🙁 No doubt we'll get either Dortmund or Sevilla.

 

[Comical Aly]

Dortmund

 

[Mystic]

Borussia Dortmund (England) v Liverpool (England)

 

[Comical Aly]

Last two out. We're home second leg.

 

[LeTallecWiz]

We're getting Dortmund

Did you put money on this?

 

[James]

So pleased we have the second leg at home.

 

[Mystic]

Borussia Dortmund (England) v Liverpool (England)

Not sure why the BBC think Dortmund are from England, but cool.

 

[Mystic]

So pleased we have the second leg at home.

Having the first leg at home was a massive help for us this time though.

 

[FoxForceFive]

Fuck. Boss but hard tie.

In the plus column, even excluding klopp it's an ace tie with two cracking atmospheres to look forwards to.

In the negative column it's arguably the toughest draw in terms of the match itself.

However if we do get through that self belief & confidence boost will be huge.

 

[Glen C]

Ffuuuccckkkkk i really didn't want them at all.

 

[Mystic]

YNWA will sound incredible at both stadiums.

 

[Comical Aly]

If anyone can handle the emotion of it, Klopp can.

 

[Sheik Yerbouti]

I reckon we'll knock them out.

 

[HC]

Well I watched the first lg against spurs and they were ace

My money says we beat Dortmund in an epic fashion and then go out to some shit cunts like braga or something 1-0 on aggregate in the following round

 

[DHSC]

Reus to Liverpool!!!

 

[Glen C]

I reckon we'll knock them out.

Puff puff pass mate...i need some of that shit.

We will need to perform better than we did against the mancs to even stand a chance. Dortmund have quality and pace all over the pitch.

 

[Jack D Rips]

Wonder what are the chances of 2 tickets for this one. I'm already booked to go to Liverpool on the 14th for the Hillsborough memorial the next day
