    • That is what I was thinking when I saw these draws, everything is set up nicely for a potential Clasico between Real Madrid and Barcelona. I had this belief before the tournament even started, the ratings would be very good. Not to say the other teams are unworthy Juventus, Bayern, Dortmund, and PSG are all talented teams.

  2. yeah but can any of these teams handle the physicality of the EPL??!?!! These teams would struggle to beat Stoke City on a cold night at Britiannia stadium!

    • none of these teams would finish in the top half of EPL. They are soft and play a brand of soccer that does not translate outside of their sissy little borders. Short passes? Attacking through the middle of the park? Could never work in EPL, the most hardcore of leagues ever!

      btw, this was sarcastic…

    • I think they’re doing it after the QFs this year. Dortmund-Malaga should be a good one. One is a power through its position in the community, one has billions of dollars of backing. Also, Dortmund are quite possibly the side Barca claim to be. Good in possession, and interesting to watch .
