4 matches I will go for

Barca 2:1 Chelsea
L'Pool 1:1 Benfica
Arseanal 1:1 Real Madrid
V'Real 2:0 Rangers

Seen this in the Guardian today

LOL!! Your scores look pretty passable too, though Real may pull something out of their hat now all the gooners seem convinced they're gonna win the damn thing after winning one game

He trained yesterday so is apparently fit although that does seem a bit quick to recover from a hamstring so it could just be JM up to his tricks

Just said on SSN that he pulled out of England squad with a torn hamstring. Either like you say the its another JM trick or SSN got it wrong. Torn hamstring would mean 4-6 weeks. But if it was a minor strain then a week is enough time to recover; Hyypia came off with a strained hamstring at the weekend and looks set to start tomorrow.

Was just what I saw on SSN

The official line was a 'tight hamstring'.

Hidden · 7 Mar 2006 at 18:14

Yep, and if anyone's looking for Villareal - Rangers, it's on... itv2, or itv 4, I can't remember, one of the two.

id love for chelsea and arsenal to win and liverpool to go out, would be great fun for me (i dont support any of these teams, support leeds but not as activley as i used to)

atpbx · 7 Mar 2006 at 18:45

I am going for Chelsea to win 3-2 for a 4-4 aggregate and to go through on the away goals rule.

Liverpool will beat Benfica 2-0.

Rangers will be thrashed 3-0 and barely get out of their half against Villa Real.

There will be no more goals in the Arsenal- Real Madrid match.

JohnnyG · 7 Mar 2006 at 18:57

Cech
Ferriera
Carvalho
Terry
Gallas
Makelele
Lampard
J.Cole
Duff
Robben
Drogba

Duff, Robben & J.Cole starting :eek:

BaZ87 · 7 Mar 2006 at 19:02

Guess Cole will play in the middle, not too big a suprise Cole's not much more attacking than Eidur. Bit suprised they went with Didier Donkey ahead of Crespo though.

lemonkettaz · 7 Mar 2006 at 19:04

hmm thought jose would put crespo and drogba on the pitch...

only thing im not looking forward to is the "pitchside" commentary...

"dude... lets zoom down to pitchside" its like NFL in overdrive

Weebull · 7 Mar 2006 at 19:10

I'm guessing one of the three wingers will play off Drogba in an "almost-4-4-2-but-we-are-still-Chelsea-remember" type formation?
