i think we deserve an easier opponent this time.

as you ppl said,psv or liverpool are good,just not to be underestimated.....

if we get milan,we are fvcked.
same goes for chelsea.

that's why i wanna see milan-chelsea,so we can get rid of one of them....

bayern is ok,we bet them twice in the qualifications,so bayern sounds ok.

porto doesn't scare me much either,but as conserns inter,i am not that sure,inter scares me more i think.

lyon?i have simply no idea what to say....

so,my choises:

1)PSV
2)Bayern or liverpool
3)Lyon or inter/porto
4)milan or chelsea-they equally scare me!!!

Yesterday I watched Lyon destroy Werder Bremen in the first half and I must say I do not want to play the French club. Lyon do not waste any time in attack, moving the ball around quickly and fluently around the pitch like nobody else in the Champions League. All of their players have loads of pace, especially on the wings, so I think they could do a number on our Juve. We do not play well against teams that bring the game to us with pace and quick passing, so hopefully we will not have to face Lyon.

I would like us playing first match away
because no matter what the result is in the first match we can destroy everyone at Delle Alpi
PSV my choice

I'd take Liverpool and psv first. Considering that liverpool aren't really as strong, same goes to PSV.

Ofcourse, we need to avoid Chelsea and Milan. Not that we can't take them on, but, it will be very very difficult.

Actually all our opponents r tough 1 way or the other, after all the teams had a hard a battle to reach the last 8, so we shouldn't underestimate any 1 of them, not even Liverpool/Lyon/PSV.

Baros wants Juve clash
Liverpool’s Milan Baros wants to face Juventus in the quarter-finals of the Champions’ League. The Czech striker said: "I don’t want Chelsea and I also don’t want Lyon. Even if they are not so famous they are a really dangerous team. I would like to play against Juventus." The draw for the last eight will take place on Friday.

I think if we get set up with Bayern, i wont be too happy about it, simply because we played them in the group phase, and the rule should be amended, whereby teams clubbed in the group phase should not play each other at least till the semi final, considering the last draw is made at the quarter final stage. Otherwise eventually, it may just seem pointless having beaten Bayern twice in the tournament, just to play them again in the quarters over two legs. And besides, i really do believe in the law of averages, and i dont think we can get the better of Bayern 3 or 4 times in the space of 6 months. Also, i have a feeling we're going to draw Liverpool who should not be underestimated by Juventus, because we're coming off a Madrid win, and they dont seem to have been on the scene for sometime now. But all that could change with 1 goal. So i hope everybody remains humble and keeps the feet firmly on the ground. Lets go Juventus.

Well I think PSV are the weakest team of the lot, along with Liverpool. Lyon continues to be underestimated and to me they are a rather scary team.

they are scary, but PSV seems more balanced to me.
Indeed they are, almost looking like Juventus in some cases. That's why I'm not afraid of PSV, because with the talent we have we should be able to cancel them out. They're not really quick and their defense is not that good either.
