    The awareness was first class
  • Really well taken, but what the hell was Neuer doing?
  • Shocking from Robertson, Van Dijk and Matip there!

    Can’t deny PL is currently best league in the world. It’s not even close.
  • Big moment - Robertson yellow card in the 91st minute.

    He misses the first leg of the 1/4 finals.

    If he'd got through an extra two minutes his yellow cards would have been wiped.

    First time since 2008-09 that you've had four teams from one country in the Quarter Finals of the Champions League

    Only other time was in 2007-08 - All three times its been English clubs

    No other country has ever achieved it

    Only the 3rd time that 4 teams from the same country have made the quarter finals.

    2007/08
    2008/09
    2018/19

    Premier League all 3 times.

    Who were the teams 07-08? I’d guess it was Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool and Man U?

    Yeah those four on both occasions

    2008 Final of course saw Man Utd v Chelsea

    2009 Final saw Barcelona beating Man Utd so despite getting four teams in the Quarters twice beforehand; an English side have only won it the once

    The QF draw will be fascinating AND might have an effect on the PL too. Imagine if Liverpool or City draw Barcelona, that's bound to affect them in the PL fixtures around that time

    Also if the English clubs are drawn against each other and play each other around the same time in the league it could have an effect

    Almost 80% chance of an all English tie next

    22% that the four clubs are in 4 different ties.

    The draw for the next round should be epic. Personally, I want ManC v Liverpool and Barca v. Juve.

    We knocked out the three German clubs left in the last 16 and that can't have happened before can it? 

    If Inter beat Eintracht Frankfurt tonight then they won't have a side in either European quarter finals which has to be another first. In 2007/08 we didn't have any sides in the QF of the UEFA Cup and in 2008/09 we had just Man City but if Arsenal can turn around a 3-1 deficit tonight it will be a first for us to have six in total in the QFs of both European competitions - the six who happen also to be the top six in the PL.
  • UEFA will hate the fact that the english sides are dominating.

    I'm fully expecting to see 2 all-English ties.

    To be fair Ceferin doesnt seem to be as much of a prick that Platini is / was so I'd be surprised if we get any comments moaning

    If we can have that in one half of the draw, I'd snap your hand off for that.
