Gems from Arsenal-Mania:
Only impressive if you rate Inter and AC this season fabo- which I don't.
(And Arsenal did so awesomely well against Barça!)
I'm sure there will be much more from Mong Central at:

Valencia aint ****, but Schalke team is quite quality tbf (Raul, Jurado, Huntelaar, Farfan etc). Spuds have been very jammy this season, think about it, they really should have been thrown out by Young Boys but got lucky, then got very lucky against Twente and Inter at home. Bremen is a no brainer, pathetic this season and absolutely struggling with injuries. Got a lucky break against Milan and held on today despite being dominated.
I think they will struggle against any team, Schalke is obviously the weakest but by no means will it be a walkover. Btw, you will be surprised by how good Shaktar is this season. Roma is pathetic obviously, but those brazilians are no pushovers
Tottenham certainly wont be favourites against any team. Bremen have been piss poor this season and Inter have fallen apart after Mourinho left. Schalke have been poor in the Bundesliga but pretty decent in Europe. Shakhthar is a really good team nowadays, one that could beat anyone on their day and certainly dont have to hide. Of all the teams left, Id have highest hopes on them to knock Barca out.
Spurs might reach the Semis but it wont be easy.
That would be a fairly tame CL wave then fabo?
They scraped past a Milan side that even Man U annihilated last season..
Their PL run is losing momentum fast - they've only taken 12 points from a possible 24 in their last 8 games.

They are feeble versions of their former selves.
Living on their reputation at the moment.
Serie A is not what it used to be.
The money and the quality has moved elsewhere.
hope spurs get barca - barca will rip dawson and co to bits

Milan's 2nd half performance was pathetic. They did well to keep the game at 0-0 leading into the final stages. The onus was then on them to go and get a goal and they never got out of first gear. Bringing on Merkel and Strasser made absolutely no sense, get goal scorers on ffs.
Spuds drew to the worst team left in the tournament tonight - no question.
ANY of the other teams left in the comp would have outed Milan emphatically.
I expect whoever Spuds draw to knock them out tbh.
