not sure if serious..if real played apoel with the subtitute team they would definetly win...

Congratulations to RM for reaching the semis. They need to look out in the first leg to not pick up delibarate yellow cards to ensure suspension, because if they get yellows in so stupid way UEFA may suspended their players. The tie will be over after first game.

APOEL >> Lyon
Lyon > MArseille

Therefore Bayern have an easier draw than us

You only complain when it happens to others? There's not a team out there who's been more helped in europe than Barca.

In the last 4 years we have had to meet arsenal(2), ac milan(twice), bayern munich,Inter(twice),Real Madrid, Chelsea and Man utd in 2 finals now compare that to liverpool, Juve, milan(twice) and Barca.. How in the hell have barca been more lucky in CL draw compared to Real Madrid..

Please when you reply dont come talking about the ref, seeing as you lot have had just as much ref help as we had. Just because everyone of you real madrid fans happen to look at the other way when you get a decision in your favour and when barca gets against, doesn't mean that we get more help than you...

apoel is a quality side

I think we're jumping the gun here.
Apoel is a bit of a dark horse

Madrid fans: United always have an easy draw....

United: :vagi:

Only Barca fans think that. Everyone else agrees you've been helped more than anyone else.

Btw, most of the teams you met were in the final or semis. The rest of the time you've had easy draws. Except for Arsenal, although they also were fairly easy.

Madrid spent how much? Arsenal beat them playing direct attacking football. The only time Mou bested Barcelona, your team parked the bus...If you get Barcelona...easy... h2h... 4-3-1...easy...

What a surprise... Real Madrid receive another team as a platform.

Now we have to face even more pseudo-humble behavior from Madridista's for half a month.

What does it matter? To win the competition Real Madrid will have to beat Bayern and probably Barca or a Chelsea/Milan that topped Barca (sorry Benfica, Chelsea are too experienced at this level).

So either way we'll have to face the other top 2 teams in the world. And no one can then claim that it wasn't a deserved CL. If we don't get through thanks to biased/terrible refereeing that is.

So what? Over two legs 99% of the time Barca will win. Madrid pose a threat but over two legs it's incredibly difficult. I don't think Arsenal have a chance at them. Remember the Messi trashing?

Although saying they were fairly easy was probabbly not the best choice of words..

Spurs
Lyon X2
Roma
Arsenal
Juventus
CSKA

Your right, nothing but scrubs on that list.

Counting teams you lost to and Spurs

Oh wait, it only matters if we beat them?

Yeah, that makes sense.

Izzy, I forgot to mention that I'm ranting.

I respect you so I know you will bear with me at the moment since I am very very frustrated.

and btw, CSKA, APOEL and Lyon aren't big draws by any spectrum. Nor is Roma or Spurs

how is spurs not a big draw though?

I know your ranting (saw your post in the Milan section )

I just wanted to point out the teams we have faced in the knockout stages for 7 odd years. The majority are not scrubs as people like to make out.

they topped their group, beat defending champions inter, beat eventual serie a winners milan

i am not saying they are man united or barca level, but they had earnt their spot as a very good side in last year's competition
