It worked out exactly the same as the rehearsal yesterday. I hope the Celtic tie is not on the same night as Real v MU.

Bye bye Man Yoo.

A great draw for you salty.....best of luxk in Feb!

They are going to need it Smokie. Celtic now the longest price at 125-1 to win the tournament. Very difficult but how others would love to have been still involved.

Or even involved at all (reference to noisy neighbours in North London who are left to pontificate about our early exit ).

Celtic's worth a tickle at that price. Stranger things have happened, though not in the Champions League so far!

Bye bye Man Yoo.

I can feel the jealousy at you not being involved smokie

I think Dortmund will win the whole thing.

Stand out best price of 8/1.

They are a young and improving team, with an exceptional manager.

French wine is better and cheaper mate.

I hope you lot get sunburnt.

And they knocked you out too!!

And its bye bye Arsenal!

Realistically you lot need to focus on staying in the top four which currently looks unlikely.

Good call.

The press here would love Klopp if he could be enticed over here. A northern European version of Mourinho but genuinely likeable. You wouldn't think he was born in the South of Germany where they tend to be the formal Germans of English sitcom pastiche (which, together with 2 world wars, has always miscoloured the Brit view of the German personality as being humourless).

Pathetic Spuds.

I will be cheering for Spurs in the Europa League and hope you win it (genuine - not because it might distract you as a league competitor). Guess I am not a true fan, as moulded on the terraces of hate.

I couldn't agree more. i think Klopp is the standout manager of the moment. Dortmund are a very good bet for the CL and Klopp would also be a good bet to take over one of the big english clubs or even Man City and Chelsea if he lost his marbles

Well you do come from a long way away from North London !

He doesn't understand what it is to be a Spurs fan. Were different!

Ever heard that line before Alf?

Glasgow Celtic. The first British team to win the Champions League, or European Cup as it was known then. Only a countries Champions could take part then, but now it is all about money. Another thing. That Celtic teams players all were born within a 30 mile radius of Glasgow. Nine of Celtics European champions were reared by the club.

Yes and Forest won the european cup on a budget of a worn out shoestring but in sporting terms that was a different lifetime and non comparible.

All sport has been effected by money and global media

Real M will most probably eliminate Man United, as they will be much more motivated than United, to win the CL this season because their chances of retaining the La Liga title are extremely slim now.

My predictions as to which teams will go through to the next round: Schalke 04, Juventus, Arsenal, Borussia D, Barcelona, Real M, PSG, Malaga

Well Man Utd and Arsenal are as good as gone. Just saying.... Merry christmas

I wouldn't be too sure about Real Madrid. Mourinho dropped Casillas on Saturday which would indicate all these rumours about dressing room unrest are not fanciful. If they are not singing from the same hymn sheet who knows.

With the ressurection of Juventus I`ve predicted them to win the CL already in august and I see they still there.If not I do hope Borussia Dortmund win.......a exiting team with the biggest and best crowd of supporters at Westfalenstadion !!!

As a lover of Barca-football, I want them to do the treble this season (La Liga, CL and Copa Del Rey). Last season, Barca were soooooooo unlucky against Chelsea (there were so many clear chances missed by Barca in both legs, while Chelsea had very few chances and managed to score from nearly all of those).

As long as the Special one stays healthy they must have a good chance of the treble. But they can be thwarted as Celtic managed at Parkhead. Over 2 legs however very difficult.

Real Madrid v Manchester United

Anybody think that Milan will beat Barcelona? thinking of having a dabble over two legs!

Shaktar/Dortmund is the tie i'm looking forward to. Dortmunds my darkhorse to win the CL

The optimist inside of me says we are gonna be in that draw next year

With Mourinho at the helm anything is possible. It'll be even more likely when your new £1 billion sponsorship deal is announced.
