Haha same here, but some posters reminded me of the deportivo loss, i am a little worried we might get complacent. I have a feeling we will face bayern in the next round though.

quarterfinal onward is random draw, and teams from same country can play one another.

we're taking out Inter next round.

Also, at the next draw we'll not only know our opponent at the quarter-finals. We'll also know the path to the final match. In other words, we'll know who we could meet in the semi-finals, in case we reach it, and who we can't.

Would love Apoel/Lyon right now with Inter or Napoli in semi final.

Dream would be Barca-Bayern-Madrid get paired up on the other side of the draw. But knowing our luck... :(

GUYS, STOP TALKING ABOUT THE NEXT ROUND SO SOON!

First let's ensure we knock arsenal out, these english teams won't want to go out this humiliatingly, trust me. I am thinking in the return leg we DON'T rest Ibra as he very good at keeping possession, and the longer we have possession the more less likely we give them chances to score any goals. Same defence should be kept I think:

Abate - Mexes - Silva - Antonini
Aquilani - MvB - Emmanuelson
Prince
Ibra - El Sharawy

I'm choosing El Sharawy over Pato for this one because I honestly think he will work much harder and really go for it. What do you guys think

If they manage to score 2-0 during the first half. The game is back on.

I think it would be best to play a slightly different squad for this leg. One that hopefully includes El Shaarawy in the starting line-up.

I'm not saying they will be but if we play the same team we did in the first leg, there's a high possibility they'll be complacent.

I just will be livid if we are complacent, we need to go into the game as if its a final again, because they WILL attack, they have NOTHING to lose 4-0 down, we have EVERYTHING to lose. We need to fight again, because they may be on a amazing form then

What are you all talking about..
There's no way in hell THIS Arsenal with the players they have right now, will score 4 against OUR defense, with the players we have right now. Let alone 6 :lol:

I completely agree but I'm not taking anything for granted at all. I guess there is no chance Wilshere is coming back to their squad by then and Henry is gone (giving them even LESS options), so its promising for us

If Barca and Madrid meet, then I am hoping a Milan vs Madrid final after us knocking out Bayern and Inter!

The same thing was said about Deportivo, when we were 3-0 up and defending Champions League champions.



History repeats itself.

Screw La Liga giants.

I want this semi-final:

Milan vs Napoli.

Bayern vs Inter.

If it was 2-0, possibly 3-0, then I would say we could have had a decent chance of perhaps getting back into the tie, but those 4 goals were killers and Milan's defence is watertight. Can't see us getting back in the tie whatsoever. If Milan's defence is as strong and ruthless as it was in the first leg, then we won't create any clear cut chances and we won't get any consolations.

Realistically, I think the tie was over when Robinho got his second of the game and Milan's third. You've done too much damage and scored too many goals for us to get back in the game.

Probably better that we're out now, anyway. Now we can focus on the league and FA Cup and won't have to worry about any fixture congestions. And besides, we were never going to win the Champions League anyway.

We're like the Everton of the Champions League - in it, but not in it to win it, lol.

Ammaar I'd agree with you if I was a fan of any other team. But we have a thing for giving away 'safe' fixtures and I've been hurt too many times before to open up and celebrate already :(.

I won't celebrate until we put in an away goal.

Then you've gotta put in 6... and well... that ain't happening.

uploaded it where?
I'm trying to tell you this video is blocked.

Fuck. They already blocked it. Took them 5 minutes.
How the hell did they find it?

Not cool practice by the money hungry UEFA.
They're shooting themselves in the foot.
