The co-commentator for the American channel I'm watching Real PSG on wants shooting.

Ramos with his usual John Terry handball play. Nothing new to see there.

bad news for us.We play Liverpool a few days after their 2nd leg. Now they can take it easy in that game.

What has happened to Porto and Benfica? They’ve been trash in the UCL this year.
Porto did reasonably well till this game. They are really missing Danilo and Felipe, their best midfielder and defender respectively. Benfica was trash. Zero points, no explanation needed. They couldn't replace Ederson, Nélson Semedo, Lindelof and Mitroglu. Sporting finished third in a group with Barcelona and Juventus but we put up a good fight in those games (draw at home with Juventus 1-1 and marginal 1-0 loss at home to Barcelona).

What are the odds of them turning to Ancelotti for the rest of the season? Did he leave on good terms?

You're right though, very few top quality managers available. It's possible they will just wait til the end of the season and move for Pochettino.
Surely no chance? Didn't he fall out with the President? Think they've got more chance of appointing whomever is in charge of the youth team, or giving it to Ronaldo until the end of the season.

At least one all English tie seems inevitable in the quarters. My bet is City vs Liverpool or us vs Spurs.

I often wonder why Madrid wants to replace Navas. He's always so good each time I watch him. But then I remember David Da Gea.
They don't need De Gea. They have need to replace others. It's because he's Spanish, happens to be good, and they believe he should belong to Madrid. They just don't want to pay for him:D

We can't dream of playing this level of technical football with that oaf up front and likes of Smalling and Jones in defense.
