Here is the current market the the tournament winner:

FC BARCELONA $2.15
REAL MADRID $5.00
CHELSEA $7.00
MANCHESTER UNITED $8.00
INTERNAZIONALE $11.00
TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR $13.00

Will be interesting to see how these change after the draw...

[johntheclaret]

My tips FWIW

Uefa will change the rules at the last minute

Man U will draw both Chelsea and Spurs in 3 team game with the one that scores first going through.
Barca will get a bye
Who gives a crap about the rest

[fish]

Here is the draw:

Quarter-finals
Real Madrid (Spain) v Tottenham Hotspur (England)
Chelsea (England) v Manchester United (England)
Barcelona (Spain) v Shakhtar Donetsk (Ukraine)
Inter Milan (Italy) v Schalke 04 (Germany)

Semi-finals
Inter/Schalke v Chelsea/Man Utd
Real Madrid/Tottenham v Barcelona/Shakhtar

Happy with that draw, think we can do chelski over 2 legs.
Could end up playing them 3 times in 10 days as our league game falls in there somewhere.
Winners for me are
United, Barca, Real and Schalke

[johntheclaret]

Well what a suprise. Two English clubs brawn together and Barca get one of the easier draws.

I challenge anyone to tell me that draw wasn't fixed. The only suprise was that the Winners of the Spurs game aren't drawn against the winners of the United game

As they said on The World Game last night, if Shakhtar can keep it tight away in the first leg they will be very confident of winning the tie..
Apparently they have a very good record at home.

Definitely on the Tottenham bandwagon. Would love to see them beat Real Madrid.

Pidge, welcome aboard, your YID badge is in the mail. Not sure about anyone being able to keep Barca quiet, one heck of a football team.

Barca was rubbish in the second half of the first leg at the emirates, so anything is possible

[RoosterMarty]

I think Spurs are out. What a pumping they copped from Ronaldo and his boys.

Crouch was stupid as well, they should make him swim back to England for that horrendous second tackle. Why would he do that when he is already on a yellow?

Schalke were amazing this morning, they were 0-1 and 1-2 down vs Inter yet hammered them 5-2. Raul with his 70th goal in Europe.

Stankovic scored a beauty of a volley from almost halfway in the first minute as well, I remember him doing something similar a few years ago as well, but they are surely out as well.

[Pidge]

Peter Crouch is an idiot. Single handedly cost Tottenham the match.

[johntheclaret]

I think Lennon pulling out 1 minute before they took to the field very strange.
Apparently he had a sore throat.
Harrys post match interview didn't throw any light on it either.

35 mins after the game he still didn't know what was wrong with Lennon????

Not sure on the single handedly there Pidge, but a bit hard to beat RM with 10 men. Haven't seen the yellows but junior BF had no complaints and he is a tough judge at times. Looks like I will have to jump on the MU bandwagon, certainly couldn't support the west london (russian) team.

Why support any other english side. If united go out i dont want any other english side to ever win it, ill be going for anyone else
