There'd be right wingers no matter who they played anyway. Leave Shaun Wright-Phillips out of this!

A lot of ye seem to be underestimating Barca's chances of winning the CL. Liverpool wont win again, not a hope. Barca will wrap it up, they are just too classy

I think that all the teams that are playin away in the first leg will all qualify for the next round....

So the last 8 will be:
barca, arsenal, juve, villareal, ac milan, liverpool, inter and lyon..........

chelsea and barcelona will be a cracker and i see chelsea beating them just slightly. They have a better balance and hopefully duff will be back to his best by feb/march.

Arsenal have a very tough match against madrid.They can take them at highbury but will loose the tie in madrid. Arsenal if they buy a new midfielder in january have a slim chance.

Liverpool verses benfica - Tough one for us. Benfica have proven by beating utd that they are a good side.Liverpool to advance though as they should be too strong and have the better defence.

the teams get country protection for the last sixteen

**dfx-** · 16/12/2005, 10:58 PM

Liverpool don't so we could play Utd or Arsenal if they had finished second...

**Redtop** · 19/12/2005, 5:15 PM

only in the group stages we didnt but every team gets it in the last sixteen

**dfx-** · 19/12/2005, 5:43 PM

Nah, we lost it for the whole tournament, we couldn't play Arsenal or Chelsea because they won their group or were already in our group, so we could only play Rangers or Man U.
