It will be Luka Modrić and Mateo Kovačić vs. Mario Mandžukić in a repeat of last year’s final between Real Madrid and Juventus. Ivan Rakitić and Barcelona were given a kind draw; having to face a weaker Roma side while Dejan Lovren & Liverpool must face English leaders Manchester City in the quarterfinal round. The first legs take place April 3rd and 4th.
Who do you have moving forward?
Favorites to move onto the semifinals will be Real Madrid, Bayern Munich, Barcelona and Manchester City.
So what can you expect from
Kovacic the bellboy
Lovren the bad omen
Rakitic the ball watcher
in champions league!#
Sevilla vs Roma final
^
Real has won more UCL titles than league titles, UCL easier to win than league titles?
Real could easily win the UCL this season again if they avoid Barcelona.
Real best team ever Lol, they can’t even win the treble since Modric has been there!
real will 3 peat with one of the hardest paths to final
psg juve and a semi final just wow
if they 3 peat best team ever no questions asked
I’m predicting it’s Barca’s year to win CL. Damn…. I’m growing concerned about the mileage Rakitic is putting in this year for Barca.
Maybe best for all our boys to be eliminated from CL with a World Cup summer coming…..
Would love to see Mandzukic’s Juve take out Real. Give Modric some rest before he shows the world what he can do as our #10.
Like Cigan said in the previous thread, I too love Mandzukic but he doesn’t fit in as well with Dalic’s 4-2-3-1 formation. With Luk
@Idemo-regardingMitrovic, he isn’t buried behind 4 defenders. He is starting for a Croation coach Ivan Leko (who happens to be Belgian coach of the year) for Club Brugge (who happen to be the best team in the Belgian league.) in a 3-5-2 (which happens to be a formation we should use with our plethora of mudfield talent.)
If Corluka not ready, then Mitrovic will need to step up again.
barca-roma
sevilla-bayern
juventus-real
Liverpool-man city
What about mandzukic on Juventus?????
I’d go with
Juventus v Liverpool
Roma v Sevilla
Bayern v Barca
Real v City
Any combination of my last four teams would be awesome.
