Jack the Lad is back, Podolski scores a screamer, the Emirates singing ooh, Santi Cazorla, everytime he went to give a corner, we are through to top 16 of Champions League for the umpteenth consecutive time. How many other British teams can equal that? I'm Arsenal 'till I die.

Great enthusiasm BG :D

Lets hope we don't finish runner up & draw Barca in the last 16 again :shock: :(

The one against us at Anfield when at Arsenal?

Both cracking finishes anyway. Really rate Wilshere.

Lazio fans have a history of violent hooliginism, if these attacks were by any English fans I`m sure Platini and his pals would call for their team to be banned from future competition. The same goes for Serbian racists.

It's disgusting, Liverpool lads got dropped off by official buses in the middle of nowhere (Docks maybe) in the past few seasons and had Italians riding past on Scooters slashing at them with knives.

I remember somebody posting on a forum via phone saying It's f ing scary.

I think it was Lazio (without googling) had running street brawls and barricades recently in Liverpool.

Both incidents in the last few years.

Ultras my arse.

There's no way I'd travel to Italy or the old Eastern Block.

Ah well, there's always next season!

But well done to Celtic, that's a turn up for the books.

So, whose gonna win it?

Barca, Juventus? Anyone fancy a British team?

I would be surprised if any UK teams get to the semi's and I would say that if Chelsea were still there.

Look forward to seeing the B team in the europa.

I think it's between Barca & Dortmund.

A few other sides are quite capable on their day & cup competitions can always be unpredictable at the KO stage. :?

No Brit teams though :tsk: :(

Agree RZR, I'd put Real in there too.

Europa League is still full of big European names Caller, it's an interesting cup this year.

I'd fancy Chelsea if they were still in it, Rafas got a fetish for it, its where he shows his tactical nous.

I'm sure all you less fortunate fans of teams who are not in the knockout stages of the Champions League will be delighted with a decent 1-1 draw for Manchester United in Madrid last night ! :thanks:

Not sure they will all be delighted with a draw, but I'm sure most of them will be more than happy with the "draws" sported by the lass in your avatar!! :cheers:
