Fulham have been playing well recently, from the highlights it looks like they were sucker-punched at Wolves last week. Fingers-crossed they're good for a point or three. In Franky we trust.

Arsenal vs Bayern

So that'll probably have quite a big bearing on those points.

Come on your Gunners. Urgh.

Atletico Madrid - Dortmund
Real Madrid - Man City

Atletico should do Dortmund.

Semi Brackets are

Quote
Atletico Madrid or Borussia Dortmund v Paris St-Germain or Barcelona
Arsenal or Bayern Munich v Real Madrid or Manchester City

So not an all English final but could be an all german one.

So we have two cracks at Bayern. If they get past Arsefull they could face Max Cheaty.

I don't expect it as well, but both must fancy their chances of Semi places at least, especially with Kane going up against The Arse.

There were people paying for that in Amsterdam.

Real are probably the only team who could stop Man City though, could have done with that being the final and enjoying Man City losing.

In the Europa, as long as Leverkusen don't draw West Ham I think anything is fine.

I can't get too excited about the coefficients yet, we might end up hoping for all these English teams to do well only for it to be Spurs and Man U who finish 4th and 5th.

But while it feels that we are more likely to finish fifth than fourth I'm quite comfortable rooting for fifth to open up.

If ManYoo go on a sparkling run of form and we carry on with our shitting-the-bed-in-the-league strategy, then I'm happy to move away from that position.

That's where I am atm, happy enough with the draw. Bet Atlético fans are even happier with it though.

Be funny when Fulham do them tomorrow and we beat West Ham.

Both of those would be lovely. Our lack of a midfield is going to bite us on the arse though I reckon.

Liverpool - Atalanta. You'd think they'll see that off fairly easily.
