I'm tired of watching Liverpool-Chelsea matches, can't they introduce a new rule that stops teams being paired together if they've already had to play every year for the last 'n' years?! Roll Eyes

I take it all back, that was simply fantastic entertainment! Smiley

Hmm.  Bayern doesn't look too good.  Do you think Barcelona can blow their big lead?

Well they could try to fill them up with "Weisswurst" (traditional bavarian sausage) and beer  Grin

When voting I must have clicked Bayern by mistake, can I shift my vote to Barca? Well, they both start with a B and I'm sorry that I notice this only shortly after reading about the 4:0 result... Wink

Despite the fact that yesterday Man Utd scored 2-2 with Porto I voted for them. I really hope that Man Utd will repeat his last year cup win Smiley

What kind of funny dreams do you have?? Bayern going through after Barcelona is spoling a 2-0 advantage??? No way.
Barca is clear favourite.

Dont get me wrong I love creative soccer as Barca offers, but the sad truth will show itself  Grin

Yeah, just as all those Kasparov-Karpov matches were boring.  But then again, if the best continue to rise through the system....  Cool

It is actually those rules that prevent them from kicking each other out in the groups.
  
If nothing else works, a total pig-headed unwillingness to look facts in the face will see us through.

That would just culminate in their boring us to death in the final.  Come on Villareal.

I think Manchester will win against Porto and Bayern against Barca (Barca will spoil a 2-0 in the return game in Munich). I slightly favour Liverpool against Chelsea and finally Arsenal will fire their guns.

These leaves us with Manchester, Bayern, Liverpool and Arsenal next round.

I predict an all English final with Manchester and either Liverpool or Arsenal. 

Finally Manchester will win - you dont have to watch, just follow my thoughts  Wink

Hi!  

The quarter-finals of the European Championship is underway.  Who will win the Championship?

(I listed the teams in alphabetical order.  Yeah, you can quibble about whether FC Porto is alphabetical or not.)

No bonus points for guessing which team I chose and am rooting for!

Sorry, MNb and Willempie, but those teams you keep talking about just don't seem to appear on this list.  Hmmm... Wink
