Leipzig is the only team to deny us a goal in 2020. They can defend pretty well, too. I can totally see this going into a pen shootout. If Leipzig even scores first, we might see them cruising this home rather comfortably.
That's a very confident take given they still possibly have to go through all 3 of Barca City and PSG.
Can't see Bayern with that high line getting past City or handling PSG. Should beat Barca though.
They do, outside of Europe.
That's blatantly false.
Not to mention that they could be following more than one club at a time. But then again the new age fan is a bit more fickle.
I will never trust Bayern again after they completely bottled it against Chelsea in 2012.
I'm not sure tbh. (probably) loosing Navas is a tough one. Atletico is really good to lock the game, especially in a single game, but who knows what can happen with Neymar and Mbappé. I feel more convident on this side of the bracket though.
Do you complain when Chelsea play Bournemouth or Norwich and its basically the same thing?
Was referring to a lot of press coverage making out like PSG actually achieved anything by winning yesterday. Game was a total miss match in terms of the clubs relative resources and you could see watching, only thing that kept it competitive was PSG woeful finishing in the first half. They should have hammered Atalanta, no miracle to see PSG go through even if they're 1 0 down after 87 minutes.

Fair enough. Point still stands though. Do you complain when Chelsea have a big revenue advantage against other clubs. For example; Kepa costs more than Burnleys strike force.
With a hand on your heart... have you watched Barcelona the past year - and in the CL, the past five years?
Bayern will tear them apart. No amount of Messi would be enough
It is considering the injuries psg has, and there were a lot. On top of which psg deserved to win, they were comfortably the better team
Does 3-1 Bayern sound fair? We are going to need to shithouse a win but I do fancy our chances much more in one leg as oppose to two. Hopefully Bayern have an off day or something
No, but I watched Bayern even less!
Barca has experience which can be critical in these games. They have a couple bottlers like Vidal but the likes of Suarez and Messi always appear in these moments.
Atletico wouldn’t have given Werner the space he needs to do damage anyway. It certainly doesn’t help that he’s out but their other forwards are pretty good
I hope to have your optimism. Cheers
City has a high line too.. and with worse defenders.
Nah, experience is good. But being a better football team is more important.
This is what I mean, so what if PSG have a couple of injuries... They're on a different planet to Atalanta with Mbappe, Draxler, Paredes and more on the bench! Of course they deserved to win, Neymar should have had at least 2 and probably a hat-trick by half time. Difference in class of players is quite ridiculous even with a couple of injuries.
:I am, want Atletico to go though and then on to the final hopefully!
Hard to be excited about a game that features Atletico. They jusr don't do pretty games
Their last knockout at Anfield was pretty good.
Barca have been underwhelming in recent times, especially in this competition. Enough to mention the last two years fiascos. It's not even really fun to watch them anymore, with that slow buildup and predictable patterns. But they are still a side stacked with experience, talent, and they also have the best player in the history of the game. When they're at their best, they're still better than anyone.

Agree with what you said. First half against Napoli was pretty fun but the Setien had them park the bus in the second half which was nerve wracking. Hopefully the Bayern game will be a good one even if we need to be a bit jammy if we are hoping to win.
