2012/13 UEFA Champions League: The Road to Wembley VII

[Sir Didier Drogba]

It's back!

I put a hefty wager on Celtic to win tonight. I can feel it in my bones.

 

[4ndr3i]

Ha, you wish.

£25 returns £150 if Celtic win and I will spend it all on Scotch whisky

 

[MaestroZidane]

I missed it so much! I'm ready for the games to start.

If Juve do lose make sure to ship some of that whisky to Romania.

Sir_Didier_Drogba never bought me a Chelmsford jersey after he won like $2000 on Chelsea, so don't count on this.

I agree.

, and it was $3000.

Thoughts on the Valencia vs PSG game? I would say PSG are the better side but Valencia have home advantage and CL experience? I got 3/1 on PSG so I floated a tenner, however I think they could be really bad.

Cheapskate! You could've at least helped Lee find a cure for Psoriasis with a donation.

 

[ShiftyPowers]

Valencia vs. PSG is the most unappealing game to me in a long time. I guess Schalke vs. Gala is even worse. Really couldn't care less who wins, but I would say PSG clearly has more talent.

I'm expecting a bore draw in Scotland. 0-0 good for Celtic or 1-1 good for Juve.

The only tie I would want to put money on is actually Shakhtar over Dortmund. Dortmund are a little fucked with injuries in their defense missing both fullbacks and their emergency FB for the first leg. I also think Mkhrttititittiaaian is a great great player. I guess with Lewa-Reus-Gotze Dortmund are always capable of scoring though, and Shakhtar's keeper Pyatov is a buffoon.

 

[4ndr3i]

Shakhtar also lost Willian.

 

[ShiftyPowers]

Yeah, the Willian thing could mean a lot, but they did bring in Taison, plus Douglas Costa had been a backup this year, but he's been successful in previous Champions League campaigns.

 

[Sir Didier Drogba]

It's such a **** that Willian, M'Vila, Hulk and Witsel all went to Russia.

 

[4ndr3i]

M'Vila is overrated big time and Hulk is a monster flop in Russia. I just can't understand the Willian move, he practically went for the same money that he would have got from Shakhtar.

Taison is great though, can't wait to see how Lucescu integrates him.

 

[ShiftyPowers]

Shakhtar is going to be a machine as long as Lucescu keeps managing. Srna seems like a big loss, but with the way they recruit and integrate Brazilians, a fullback won't be terribly difficult to find; Brazil is the land of FBs.

 

[MaestroZidane]

Worst defending mistake I've seen in a CL game by Celtic

 

[MaestroZidane]

Realy enjoing Juve - Celtic game, Celtic just keep pushing Juve's defense and testing Bufon.

PSG - Valencia is not dissapointing either.

 

[4ndr3i]

So much for Sir_Didier_Drogba's booze money.

 

[yoyo913]

Srna seems like a big loss

Huh?
