This year the quaterfinals have not been as entertaining as the last year were.
Re: Champions League 2011
Duuude Chelsea got schooled. Fergie really is one of the best managers ever. I am pretty disappointed at seeing Torres' appalling form at Stamford Bridge. I don't know WTF is going on but its pretty sad. On the other hand United cannot make a mistake in the UCL so far. Drogba was in form as usual and I don't know why in the world Ancelotti didn't play him seeing Torres' uneventful appearances in the recent past. Another goal would have put pressure on United. Park has been top as usual. Good game though, way better than the first leg. And I don't see Inter/Schalke challenging United down the road.
Barcelona was no surprise. Decimated Shakhtar, the usual. Messi is enroute to break a few records this season. Van Nistelrooy's 12 to beat in the UCL and 50 to beat over the season. I think he has this one in the bag. A true legend. El Clasico is right here too. A hectic month for the two Spanish giants. Honestly, got no criticism for Barcelona.
I'm waiting for the Real/Spurs game tonight. Go Los Blancos! I have high hopes and Mourinho has really groomed the Real depth. I called Bale when he burst on the scene and now he's definitely proven himself to be a superstar. Its always a pleasure to see his game. I doubt an upset even though White Hart Lane has been trouble for challengers at times. Real should be pretty disciplined and Mourinho has a good handle on things so far. There was a shaky start but hey, it seems to be working.
Finally it looks like Barcelona is still as strong as ever. I mean sure there's a couple of other teams that come to mind. But on paper, they don't seem to have a weakness this season. Exciting times ahead! The fixtures are getting more delicious!

No, they progressed. They will play either Inter or Schalke.

Re: Champions League 2011
I didn't want Real and Barca facing off in the semis. United is as good as in the final now, don't see Schalke beating them. And Barca will beat Real over two legs, no question about it. Barca vs Utd final and anything can happen (although I'd back Barca to win).

Glory Glory United ![]()
Re: Champions League 2011
As expected Real and Shalke are through. Great games ahead with Real-Barca on saturday and then again in semis. I think Barca will sail easily to final. I havent seen Shcalke before and but the way they are playing i think they will beat Man U.

I'm hoping Real puts up a fight though. Anything would be better than that arse whooping a while back. I'd back Barca against anyone any day in their current form.

Schalke is good but they aren't no Man Utd. I expect United to cruise.
Re: Champions League 2011
Schalke will definitely give Utd a run for their money, I see a tight affair with Utd edging it with one goal. Baba Fergie will make sure they get through, he always does. ![]()

Its just so frustrating to see Torres who was such a good player for Liverpool looking like a loser in Chelsea colors. Being a liverpool fan, I wanted Chelsea to beat ManU but it was such a disappointing performance by Chelsea. Ancelotti should have played Drogba from the start in second leg.
Cannot wait for Four Real-Barca games in space of two weeks!! Mouth watering prospect that overshadows everything else in Europe.. I hope Maurinho magic works again and he gets the better of Barca for a place in the finals.
It would be awesome to see Ronaldo facing ManU in the final at wembley. :)

United looking good to win treble this :)
Re: Champions League 2011
I know bru, I just want them to lose only because I don’t want them to win. They’re too good! :hinna:
Seriously, I’m a so hyped up for these games!

Re: Champions League 2011
The first of 4 El classico has started and Messi seems obsessed with chip shot over the keeper.

Re: Champions League 2011
So far a good contest, i dont think it was a penality for Villa, he had ball well away from him when goalie jumped at him, he was in no position to score.
