Topic: CL Draw, Round of 16 - Monday 11th December 11am

[Fitzy.]

Good draw. Not easy of course, but second leg at Anfield.

[Kenny19]

any idea about allocation in porto?

[Poet]

Xabi, with not only feet but also hands of gold.

[Slick_Beef]

fucking brilliant, i might even actually get to go a game for the first time since braga away

[Wool]

That's a great draw for us.

[b_joseph]

Fuck me, it feels good to be in a draw like that.

[DonkeyWan]

Porto - not so good as to terrify, not so bad as to be a lose-lose. I'm sure they are pretty pleased too.

Who did Everton get?

[rocco]

Happy with that

[Lush is the best medicine...]

Such a handsome man is our xabi

[Lycan]

Xabi Alonso you beautiful man. FC Porto it is.

[Crosby Nick]

That’ll do I think. City and united will be going through so the horrible risk of an all English clash in the quarters if we get through. Chelsea and Spurs will have tougher tasks.

[elsewhere]

We have to stop Aboubakar, he has been on fire since on loan at Beşiktaş.
Got another hat trick for Porto yesterday

[Roger Federer]

Great draw, cheers Xabi!

[gjr1]

Nice!!!

[Grobbelrevell]

Can't be unhappy with that. A real chance to push through to the quarters, especially with the second leg at Anfield.

[Libertine]

Xabi was keeping a very close eye on the balls there - he knew what he was doing.....

[BarryH28]

Thanks Xabi 
Tough but winnable draw. Can’t wait

[robgomm]

What a great draw all around!

[RedSince86]

Xabi is the man!!!

Avoided the big hitters.

I hope the Real/PSG game is not on the same day as our games.

Chelsea hahaha.

Sevilla will knock out United.

[johnj147]

 

Xabi, with not only feet but also hands of gold.

[Geppvindh's]

Juventus v Tottenham

Basel v Man City

Porto v Liverpool

Sevilla v Man Utd

Real Madrid v PSG

Shakhtar v Roma

Chelsea v Barcelona

Bayern v Beşiktaş

[Grobbelrevell]

City and United will be delighted as well.

[telekon]

Chelsea 

[Wabaloolah]

Utd vs Sevilla.

Nicely set up for us to twat them in the quarters.

yep we owe Sevilla one

[elsewhere]

Great draw, i’d have changed a stronger opponent for United but even Sevilla will beat them imo.

[Pradan]

So it could work out something like this:
Liverpool
City
Utd
PSG
Barca
Shahktar/Roma
Bayern
Juve

Get the winner of the Roma/Shakhtar tie and we're on our way to number six 

[The Final Third]

[Nick110581]

Great ties there.

One of PSG or Real out plus Chelsea or Barca

Assume City are now favs

[Johnnyboy1973]

The only thing better than watching us getting drawn in the last sixteen of the European cup was watching us get drawn against Porto.

[lionel_messias]

Good draw but let's be super careful with Porto.

Right, come on Liverpool; go and get a VVD in the window.

[Wabaloolah]

Great draw, i’d have changed a stronger opponent for United but even Sevilla will beat them imo.

yep and some big clubs guaranteed to go out too

[Gerry Attrick]

Shame we have to wait 2 months for these games.

[Red_Mist]

Happy with that. Plus 3 from Chelsea, Barcelona, Spurs, Juve, Real Madrid and PSG will be gone

[thelinnen]

We have to stop Aboubakar, he has been on fire since on loan at Beşiktaş.
Got another hat trick for Porto yesterday

I'm sure they'll be more concerned about stopping Salah, Mane, Firmino and Coutinho.

[Nick110581]

 Sure many will be relieved but they smashed Monaco 3-0 and 5-2. Also beat Naby's Leipzig 3-1. Not lost a game in their league. It's no gimme.

[Andy @ Allerton!]

Given how shite we were against Everton I seriously doubt we'll progress in this competition.

[Felch Aid]

Solid draw.

Won't be easy as Porto are usually strong at home but Portugese sides don't travel.

[elsewhere]

Who did Everton get or they join the party in quarter finals draw?

[Wabaloolah]

Great ties there.

One of PSG or Real out plus Chelsea or Barca

Assume City are now favs

yep City then Bayern

[CraigDS]

Given how shite we were against Everton I seriously doubt we'll progress in this competition.
