Champions League Round of 16 (15th Feb - 16th Mar)

1) They added Manchester United to Villarreal's draw pot, even though they could not be paired due to being in the same group.
2) They added Liverpool to Atletico Madrid's draw pot, even though they could not be paired due to being in the same group.
3) They failed to add Manchester United to Atletico Madrid's draw pot.
And why were Lille unable to play Sporting? Was that clarified? Thought that was another mistake unless I am misremembering
 
If it isn't Atlético and Villareal with two of the toughest draws who wants the entire draw re-done :lol:

Because Chelsea had to face Lille as they couldn't face the remaining teams, one of which was us.

Would have been funny if they had picked Liverpool name to draw Athletico considering Liverpool's ball was also there.
 
But they weren’t were they? That’s the actual point, they seem to get piss easy draws every year.

It's a fact they were our last five opponents the last five times we've been in the last 16 (not in that order)
 
I think we’ll dick them..not worried at all and it’ll be great to knock out one of the oil clubs.
 
Maybe, just maybe UEFA spend more time focusing on the actual draw instead of the huff and puff that precedes it.
 
Who gives a feck. Wanted PSG anyway. Can’t wait to see Neymar crying on the touch line when we knock them out. Again!
 
I am waiting for UEFA to put out a statement they redid the draw and it came out the same.
 
What’s there to ‘discuss’ for UEFA? Funny thing is towards the end of every draw they say something along the lines of “hope this final ball contains the right team or we’ll have to redraw the whole thing he-he-he”. This draw was butchered from the very start. It has to be redone. There is simply nothing to discuss.

It's just a bit ridiculous. I don't care if we get PSG, but the draw needs to be done correctly for the integrity of the sport, not be a laughing stock (esp with all the allegations of previous fixing). I think we will redraw them again anyway, that's the way things go, they'll just be a bit more savvy about it and not laugh in our faces at least.

The people who give a feck are those who want to progress as far as possible and playing PSG does not help us.

Leave the wanting the hardest club and opponent for the minnows in the FA cup.

Small team mentality.
 
They should do it immediately so we can move on. The longer it drags, the more it will be embarrassing.
 
UEFA are stuck between a rock and a hard place, the money of Ronaldo/Messi vs integrity
 
Would be funny if they redraw and don’t broadcast it and get the same results. Unlikely I know.
 


T: We are in talks with UEFA to ask for explanations and a solution after the mistakes made in the Champions League round of 16 draw
 
Got
1) They added Manchester United to Villarreal's draw pot, even though they could not be paired due to being in the same group.
2) They added Liverpool to Atletico Madrid's draw pot, even though they could not be paired due to being in the same group.
3) They failed to add Manchester United to Atletico Madrid's draw pot.

Got it - thanks! What a complete shambles of a draw. Should def be a redraw
