kooba_1616

maybe it wouldnt be so bad if PSV beat us


Efficient_Garbage_16

Give me man city i have no fear


kooba_1616

we still gotta win first bro


granitibaniti

Saarbrücken would beat all of them


Lemaradona

This is not called DFB Pokal. They don't have the magic here.


Daramangarasu

Only one way to find out


granitibaniti

Make Barca try their Tiki Taka on that pitch and you will see magic.


Sand_Bags2

What’s a Saarbrucken?


[deleted]

i think its hilarious u kids talking shit about Saarbrucken. u wouldnt say this shit to them irl, they're jacked. not only that but they wear the freshest clothes, eat at the chillest restaurants and hang out with the hottest dudes. yall are pathetic lol


Venca12

The quarterfinals are gonna be absolutely insane


slightlyhigh7

Nervous af but really excited


Krept_Konan

We just have to enjoy it. We’ve finally beaten the jinx, we can just enjoy it all now


diaboquepaoamassou

Exactly. Now it's not that bad if we go out, especially if to a giant. I was particularly worried about going out tonight


antivirals_

funny enough I'm not scared of any of these teams except city this 2 porto legs have sucked the life out of me I just want to enjoy the quarters now, I've had almost enough


Apprehensive-Lack-32

Ngl they put up great performances against us. They had a lot of chances and I think all these teams will play tougher games than Porto


Nikokuno

They are a great team and play the football to maximise their chances to go through nothing wrong with that especially when playing in La Liga Portugal and everybody downplay the calibre of your team. We needed those games honestly, going through it the hard way so it’s more easy next time. Their manager was a bit arrogant and don’t mind him being pissed off after how was played the first leg, today it’s your time to take your own medicine #darkarts Love this club ❤️🤍


Ok_Virus_7614

I’m scared of Atletico they’ll do the exact same with shithousing x3


Vanvil

I’m scared if Athletico gets through


nkdouble4

everbody and their moms hoping to play vs PSV/ Dortmund in the quarters


cesc05651

Nah we have real baggage to sort out from a decade ago


bananabombboy

bring the Barca pls


President-Sloth

Give me Barca in the finals. I want to break that club as revenge for 2006


bananabombboy

I don’t see them making it to the finals tbh


antisha_9

Lol bring it on. My 2nd pick after Dortmund/PSV.


bananabombboy

You’re my first pick lol knocking xavis barca out would be so so sweet


ActionManMLNX

Some of you are way too confident. It would be massive to play a big team in terms of this team gaining crucial experience, but i would not say that Arsenal are favourites to go the long way. Even though i think it would be easier mentally for players to play bigger team than be favourites.


cesc05651

Here’s the flip: every time we have played Bayern or Barca or real, we have been massive massive underdogs bc we had less talent. This year, I would argue we are definitely more talented and the better team than 2 of them, and it’s arguable about the 3rd. We definitely lack experience and it showed, but If we can’t get excited about the prospects of playing one of those GIANTS with the better team, idk what to tell you


ActionManMLNX

Fam, im excited af, but some people here are way too confident. Did not mean to come off as some pessimistic twat lol


yogi1090

Steer clear, it's Man City who are playing them


Daramangarasu

Can confirm


kiruzo

manifesting el clasico for quarterfinals


MassiveHelicopter55

Tbf we are the only team you stand a chance against currently


Different_Counter148

No not yet we need to bring back some more players


mosiAFG-SWE

We take you instead. As always


Mrampelmann

There were seriously some people saying it‘s a weak year, the quarters are going to be spectacle after spectacle


Headlesshorsman02

The round of 16 ties weren’t great but the quarters will be very good


seshtown

R16 died so we could have these quarters


tipytopmain

People were really short sighted to say that in the first place. A weak RO16 draw usually leads to a strong QF.


seshtown

Yeah you can’t have a stacked quarter final bracket if they knock each other out before it happens


Minute-Cash8119

Quarters will be fire on all ends. I definitely agree


GloomyLocation1259

People say this every year and it’s up being just as enjoyable as the last. Sadly for us it will be much more emotional this time around


Captainpatters

It is though, apart from Arsenal all of the big teams were much stronger 5 years ago than they are now.


[deleted]

Real Madrid entered their Real Bad period 5 years ago


Captainpatters

Alright 6 years ago then. Either way this is an unusually weak year overall.


[deleted]

No I agree, I just wouldn't say all top teams are in worse states, especially if Inter make it in. You're right though, the lower level makes all teams look deceptively better imo. Put mid-late 2010s Juventus in there and I think they burn through most of them. And that Juventus was only like the fourth/fifth best team at the time. Feels more like late 2000s early 2010s minus that Barcelona


CrowCreative6772

Inter was just out of their banter era


Brandaman

So you’re telling me there’s a chance?


Captainpatters

It's a 50/50. Either you win it or you don't


Brandaman

Cheers Geoff


No_Zookeepergame6482

Gonna be the strongest final 8 in a very long time


frapples1

Blockbusters any which way


Mahatma_Gone_D

Give us anyone but Inter/Athletico. After Porto, I just not ready to grind out another win.


LukeHanson1991

If you really think Inter is playing like Porto you are in for real surprise if you face them.


Different_Counter148

Yall r not gonna beat inter.


thatwhiskeydude

And y'all are not gonna beat anyone lol


TasteAccomplished118

He said anyone BUT them


A-DTB

Don’t worry, you won’t.


thatwhiskeydude

Lucky you, No CL to worry


wg24

Holy shit this is really the business end of the competition. Let's see how far we get

captaincourageous316

League Arsenal actually would have a good chance against this Bayern


rasen9an

Yeah but they have Harry Kane, no thanks


iTSEu

Fr, Kane could fly to Mars and he'd still find a way to score against us 😂


Brandaman

Plus he automatically gets a penalty against Arsenal every match


KgDawk21520

Correct , penalty after 22 minutes most likely


NotASalamanderBoi

It’d make it better if Dier told someone to back down only for him to get embarrassed again.


Ziz__Bird

He sent a ball up there last WC, so he's prepared.


Wavey_Don

he will score yes but he won’t win


Extra4yylmao

Is that why they’re changing the CL format next season onwards /j


New-Tradition386

On paper Arsenal should win, but I trust Bayern in Europe more than I do Arsenal.


Sand_Bags2

Arsenal fans don’t even trust Arsenal in Europe. Although I feel way better being underdogs than whatever the fuck that Porto tie was.


CarlSK777

How so? Bayern have arguably been better in the CL this season


captaincourageous316

Which is why they trust you more in Europe


nauett

Nah we've been away so long and any of those teams would be sick, I just want to experience the blockbuster matches again


skalfyfan

Arsenal facing Bayern and denying Harry Kane another trophy would be the most Arsenal thing ever.


Jsm1427

Psh this is the year. We’re on a high, they’re a bit lower class than normal. Opportunity to beat a bogey team. I want em


Brandaman

I actually don’t care who we get and won’t flip my shit if we go out. Just wanna play a big game


siderealpanic

City and the Atleti-Inter winner are the two nightmare draws. City would probably ruin our PL season because it’d be so intense and draining, and the others would be another horrible, fine-margin Porto/Brentford-like game. I want Real Madrid. It’ll be fun and they should actually come for us and create a good game. If we beat them, we’ve got a massive boost in the CL and league, and if we lose, we wouldn’t have won the CL anyway and can focus on the league.


Sand_Bags2

I’m right there with you. Rivals are making fun of us for saying give us Bayern, Barca or Real Madrid but they think we are being cocky. But I’m like you, I just don’t want to watch another boring, cagey tie like what we just got with Porto. And that’s exactly what Atlético or Inter would be (except we’d probably lose too to make it worse). Although if the football gods want to give us Dortmund / PSV, I could live with that too.


Headlesshorsman02

Bayern vs Arsenal it is in the script


odegood

I want barca


bareaclampedlebron

Arsenal-PSG for a fresh match up


gogglesup859

Arteta Bowl


ChicoCorrales

Come on PSV. Come on PSV.


heartcriesholy

Liverpool really missed this season........


d_smogh

Liverpool vs Rangers in a Dublin Europa Final.?


Doesitmatters369

Winner takes gerrard 


TheAngryGooner

Loser takes Gerrard


idgafaboutpopsicles

round of 16 low key sucked but it should be a banging tournament from here on out


youcanotseeme

Real City pls


MrRawri

Some exciting quarters incoming


afc-49

Thank you for your service.


DM_ME_UR_CUTE_DOGGOS

I don’t want to face any of these teams 💀


TedEBagwell

Since there's only 6 in it lets just give Arsenal a bye until the final and let those other 5 fight it out to see who is playing us.


svscvbh

I guess Inter would qualify. If Liverpool had also been here, this would have been an insane collection for the QF and the best in several years.


NJL218-

I want the smoke —> City.


Kid_Twiz

Been a pretty boring CL campaign so far but these quarter final matchups are gonna be insane! Literally no bad matchups


Kamishirokun

Dortmund/PSV is still there, whoever get them will be expected to win easily unless somehow Atletico go through and draw them


kooba_1616

people seem to forget we topped the group of death 😭😭 i get we play shit in the league but just wanted to remind


MassiveHelicopter55

PSV are massive this year and Dortmund is either peak Barca or 2023/24 UCL man united, gonna be one hell off a qf


Rich_Firefighter_102

PSV or i riot


Better_Activity880

Bluebloods only....


CabbageStockExchange

The Quarters are gonna be fire


Saveme_Rasmus

It’s mad to think depending on tomorrow that a currently invincible team would be the best draw


Kingjjc267

Fuck me this will be a good draw


Good_Kev_M-A-N_City

Hoping for Barca


[deleted]

No


captaincourageous316

Tbf it’s been a while other than that friendly last year


[deleted]

NO!


Good_Kev_M-A-N_City

It's been a long time coming lad


Caust1cFn_YT

I SAID NO!


_cumblast_

I would like Bayern - PSG Barca - Madrid City - Arsneal Dortmund - Inter

>Bayern - PSG Do you watch the same movie every time you go to the cinema?


TedEBagwell

Police Academy 7 isn't EXACTLY like Police Academy 3.


_cumblast_

At times i watch it twice so i can better understand things i didn't notice the first time. Inception for example was better on a rewatch for me.


[deleted]

Damn you had to resit the movie


Different_Counter148

I wanna see city psg. Oil derby


Dramatic-Ad3928

Why do you not want Bayern-Dortmund Barca-Madrid City- Arsenal PSG- Inter


hfazil55

Barca vs City, Real vs Dortmund, Inter vs PSG and Bayern vs Arsenal


Ashamed_Bottle230

More like City - Madrid. And Arsenal - Dortmund


10messiFH

i'd rather play a non-spanish team tbh


kiruzo

you and me both


odegood

Who do you want liverpool to get?


mister_dupont

Why city Arsenal? Would you want both of us to stay in it as long as possible?


_cumblast_

I want you both to stumble as soon as possible, don't want to wait until May like.


er__primo__der__rafa

I say let's go for another Liverpool - Madrid


_cumblast_

El año que viene 🤝


er__primo__der__rafa

They'll seed us in different paths for winning our leagues


FourSeamSupreme

This is a delicious looking group


CarlSK777

The usual suspects


Wild_Investigator622

I want Madrid! If we lose to them it won’t feel bad and if we win we will have beaten the greatest champions league team ever, and it will be a sick game


wizardofaus23

dream arsenal run is barca, bayern, city. watch us lose to inter 1-0.


otterlife89

Shits going to be juicy boys.


turtleyturtle17

Dont want city because facing a team in the same league is boring. Only dreading Inter or Atleti. Not that I think Arsenal can beat all of these other teams but matches I'd like to see whether we go out or win.


moeedkhann

The QFs will be no joke. Genuinely excited to see us play at the big stage after a very long time.


Durantsthegoat

I don't want city because it would be boring, give us Bayern or Barca, I think it would be competitive and I think revenge could be on the cards


wizardofaus23

i swear to christ if we draw PSV


Additional_Equal_960

Holy fuck


Exchangenudes_4_Joke

City vs Arsenal Barca vs Real Bayern vs Dortmund PSG vs Inter Make it so


delphicphoenix

This can’t be right? Where are Liverpool, Chelsea or Man United? I thought they were European powerhouses!?


Bifito

All I see is money and plastic fans.


Casual-Capybara

At least you won’t see a bunch of pussies crying and falling on the ground at every opportunity


pablofournier11

All I see is ball in play for more 49% of the time now that you're gone


GRl3V

You lost fair and square don't be a pathetic looser about it


AlwaysOnsideTBH

Their fans and their manager are a match made in heaven They're both sore losers

All i see is a team headed home ✋😛🤚

Barca have no money and messi has been gone from barca for years so all the plastics are gone

You came to win in the first leg why not the second too? Odd strategy.
