Think it'll be Liverpool vs City in the final. Don't think Bayern are that good this season.

Chelsea vs Real Madrid again, Chelsea should be favourites.

So one of last year's finalists will be this year's finalist (Chelsea or City). Tuchel could win back to back CLs.
Not saying he couldn't, but atm it's very unlikely as their left side is a bit vulnerable without Chilwell.

Of course Liverpool and City both get the easiest draws possible.

First leg at SB without fans and second leg at home. If we don't get injuries and Ancelotti doesn't screw it up we're beating them

Then City in the SF still with second leg at home

Last 2 teams to eliminate us, one after the other. It is a year for revenge

I think we'll beat you in the first leg by 2. Think we should be able to get through the away game if we go into it with a big advantage.

I can see us lining up with James at RWB and Azpilicueta at LWB. Azpilicueta has played plenty of games as a LB so I don't think it would be farfetched to have him there.

I can hardly remember the best team in their league winning the CL recently (last six years). Bayern probably. Sure wasn't Real Madrid, Chelsea or Liverpool.

That's why I think Tuchel has a strong chance.

Liverpool are going to win the Champions League aren't they? I think I'm going to be sick.

Now praying for Julian Nagelsmann and Bayern.
They can actually win the league and CL double.

Surely there must come a point where it stops being lucky Liverpool and just being clear and obvious bullshit?

It would be our own fault it has come to this. Fancy being the board and owners that let this happen. I wouldn't want to be in their shoes.
Add our pathetic players to that list as well. Failure at every single level.

I want Bayern to win the CL.

There's a decent chance City will be on for the treble and Liverpool will be on for the quadruple on FA Cup final day 14 May.

This. You need to have James back and fully healthy. Kovacic should also start. I remember last year you dominated them in both legs with Kante-Jorgi however these two have not been that good this season compared to last season.

We'll get past Chelsea, they won't be facing a side injured to death this time around, they'll be in for a surprise methinks.

After that anything can happen, I think the eventual winner could come out from any of the current 4 ties.

and FA Cup, and League Cup is in the bag. 100% happening.
Watching Liverpool equalizing our record in the league then winning their 7th CL title to extend the gap between us and them to 4 CL titles will be a sight to be hold.

And guess what. we actually deserve such humiliation.

I'd bet a serious amount of cash that the two don't meet in the semis either.

Chelsea are comfortably better than Madrid, don't know what some of you are on about, I guess those last 30 minutes vs PSG made people forget how bad every Spanish team has been for some time now.

Looks like another English CL triumph after 2019 and 2021.

Eliminated only by one goal to Atletico is a blessing in disguise :wenger:

Too much to take if we get thrashed by City in CL.

Maybe If they have a fit full squad, but i can't see them beat City. Chilwell add attacking threat and pace on their left side unlike Alonso, Sarr, or Azpilicueta.

Some people actually believing Chelsea could win this UCL. Hilarious.

While winning the fecking quadruple in the process, eclipsing our treble

Fecking sick of the draws being so easy for them, same for decisions in the games. It's like everything is just going their way and falling into place for them, setting up the inevitable, horrendous conclusion. Even if they don't get the FA Cup a league and CL double is going to be insufferable.

Meanwhile our club is so ambitious we are battling it out for the top 4 trophy, looking on course for the Europa yet again next season. How can everyone involved with the club, including the players, allow this to happen with seemingly so little care. Our bitter rivals are both pocketing trophy after trophy while we blunder along at the level of our ambitions these days - the fabled top 4 trophy. :mad:

Bayern are being underrated. Still the best team in it, they will blitz past Villarreal

Chelsea, Liverpool and City are also raking in 10s of millions in prize money for their progress each round, leaving us further behind.

If Chelsea knock out Real Madrid 2 seasons in a row then it will really show the superiority of English teams in Europe at the moment.

It's incredibly tough to take. The way things have gone for them this season, it feels completely inevitable. I got called a 10 year old for suggesting they win all of their remaining league games, well, lets see.
