Champions League Round of 16 (13th Feb - 14th Mar)

Hard to pick which is worse between LFC getting their 6th and City getting their 1st

I can't even imagine what that must feel like. Everton their first or United the fourth. Bollocks. I do not know the answer.

I'd rather see City winning it for sure.

Imagine all the shit poetry they'd write on RAWK if they won it.
 
I think Liverpool would get easily dispatched by every side left with the exception of Sevilla and Roma do not even worry yourself with the hypothetical.
 
Like when Giroud dived and he gave them a free kick in a very dangerous area?

Is there any wonder, you have to resort to their tricks to get anything against them. Take Messi out that team and their just a bunch of diving midgets.
 
Congratulations to Rosell and Bartomeu. They were thorough in ridding Barcelona of Johan Cruijff's ideology.

This Barcelona team play like an Italian team. defending in a low block 442, inability to play out of the back, terrible positional play, 3-5 players occupying one vertical column so they can't effectively sustain cohesive attacks, using the side backs in the build up and a non existent central axis. This team has more similarities with Juventus than Manchester City.

They depend almost exclusively on Messi providing indiviudual brilliance.
 
Somebody show some iniesta youtube clips to pogba please. What a player, amazing
 
Fantastic dive from Alonso, very well orchestrated. Had everyone fooled, but the replay shows him randomly moving his leg in the opposite direction to where his other leg was to manufacture contact.
 
I feel that all the other teams are more capable of playing good football than we are.. .
 
Not having Xavi, Iniesta not quite what he was make a big difference. Those two together dominated the midfield.

Just not the energy in their game. Used to choke the life out of the opposition with their pressing, stopped from establishing anything of their game. This Barca gives you a chance to play and express yourself.

Maybe it is the loss of Pep making the difference.
 
This Barca team looks the most beatable in years but somehow chelsea cant seem to score

Not worried at all. Klopp would lose the final.

I just don't understand how any United fan would want to see Liverpool lifting the Carabao cup let alone the Champions League.

I want United to overrtake Liverpool in European Cups in my lifetime. Hopefully I've another 50 years left in me and hopefully I'll get to see that.

no 1st times for me, wanted City to win the league in the year of slippy g, the dippers winning their 6th doesn't bother me in the slightest, since BT took control of the CL, I've rarely watched it, but a dipper side, managed by Klopp winning something, I just have no desire to see that, its a rea' sophie's choice, thankfully we have Bayern,Barca and Real to prevent that.

With Busquets and Iniesta now off their midfield is Rakitic, Gomes and Paulinho. That's not even better than ours.
 
Barcelona on this display I don't think are good enough to win the CL. They are allowing Chelsea more openings than City ever did. Man City are better than Barcelona IMO which is very depressing. They are ever more reliant on Messi than any time before. They aren't on a par with the Barcelona teams of old that's for sure.
 
Umtiti and Pique have been excellent.

Barca probably need another goal to be safe. Chelsea will score.
