I see Liverpool/Man U/Barcelona as the only reasonable picks to win it all. Chelsea can't possible get through Liverpool, Barcelona, and Man U as far as i'm concerned. Just too tough a route to have to take.

All of them have a tough road ahead, yet one of them will win it. Arsenal and Chelsea have the second leg homefield advantage in both rounds. Unconsiously I guess that led me to them in an all-London final.

As far back as I am I have nothing to lose in hoping for an upset with Bayern and Chelsea. Hopefully, they will come through.

I am in rough, rough shape heading into the 2nd leg.

3 out of 4 results from that first leg would have to be considered at least moderately shocking.

Bayern just rolled over and died
Man U looked nervous and shakey
Liverpool checked out after the 10 minute mark


I think Liverpool is doomed... they have to score a minimum of 3 goals at Stamford Bridge... i just don't see it happening.

Wow, that game was a lot less boring than I expected it to be. Pretty happy right now that I decided to turn the tv on for it.

Agreed. That was one of the craziest games I can recall ever seeing.
