Apart from the Chelsea game this week's CL ties are a bit meh for the neutral.

Next week has some good 'uns:

Arsenal v Barcelona
Juve v Bayern
Dynamo Kiev v Man City

 

[Juggy1985]

Roma v real madrid should be interesting. Roma seem to crumble every now and then. Barca this year, bayern last year >..>

Surprise, surprise, moving the whole competition behind a paywall has seen viewing figures in the UK fall drastically, from several million on ITV to under 200,000 on BT's Showcase channel.

BT not showing any last-16 games for free which feature English teams.

Showing any games free to air at all was forced on them by UEFA. Changes (unknown) to be made for future contracts.

**** BT.

That should be fun with just Cahill and Ivanovic as CB's.

I have a feeling this could be a pasting for Chelsea. The only thing that might help is that PSGs usual opponents are **** so they might not be used to a fight.

This is exactly the type of game Mourinho would be good for.

 

[Cosimo]

All one way traffic so far.

 

[Captain]

Owen stating the obvious as usual..

 

[Cosimo]

Costa so close.

 

[Fulax]

Great reaction save, but Costa had to score that.

 

[Cosimo]

Owen stating the obvious as usual..

Wish someone would shut him up.

 

[Cosimo]

Deflection of the wall 1-0

 

[Robbo]

More than a bit of luck with that, but plenty of power.

 

[da_mic_1530]

cheeky slice of luck

 

[The_One]

1 - 1
