Since Liverpool are starting their Europa League campaign tonight, may as well start this thread now.

This will be rodgers first season in Europe, so I expect he'll look to have a solid competition. I reckon AVB will take this competition more seriously than Redknapp and Newcastle will want to do well for sure. Hopefully these three teams will do well and help England's co-efficient points.

As for the CL, we're retaining it :jordan2

Bayern/Juventus is 50-50. I already said I didn't want for Bayern to face Juventus because we don't do well against Italian teams, whoever qualifies from Bayern/Juve will win the whole thing.

Apparently one of Chelsea's or our First leg games maybe switched as there is a UEFA rule about games in the same city on the same night.
Unless it's just for European games but haven't Chelsea and Spurs played at home at the same time in the league?

Think it only affects it if it's local, i.e Arsenal & Spurs.

I'm as sure about Juventus beating Bayern as I am Madrid wiping the floor with Gala.

:pirlo fears no man, especially any German man. The sight of him will strike fear into the bottling hearts of Bastian and co. as it has done at times in the past.

Why no semi final draw? Uefa waiting for Barca & Real to get through so they can fix it this time for them to meet in the final?

Good draws for Chelsea & Spurs. Newcastle up against it for sure.

Fancy Juve, Barca, Real & Dortmund in Champions League. Spurs, Chelsea, Benfica & Lazio in Europa.

Any chance this thread could be changed to 'The Mythical Thread'?!

Re: UEFA Champions/Europa League 2012-13 Thread - It Just Got Mythical

UEFA used to do the quarterfinal, semifinal draw on the same day...why did they change it this year?

Anyway Bayern-Juve is the tie of the round, all other three draws I fully expect the favorites to go through.

In terms of the Europa League; Chelsea, Spurs, Lazio, Benfica in the semi's and really any of those 4 can win. I can easily see an all-English final if they are kept apart

Not a great draw, it will probably be spain vs germany in either both the semis, or the final. Dortmund should comfortably go through, Barca will probably have a poor game in Paris and turn in around again at the Nou camp, most competitive game will probably be Bayern vs Juve, will be interesting to watch. Might be a tricky draw for Madrid if they dont win comfortably in the first leg. as everyone knows its difficult to go to Galatasaray in a normal game, let alone the QFs of the Champions league.

Some nice draws in there for the CL.

Bayern/Juve is the closets tie and it's really any man's game. I'm torn betwen rooting for PIRLO or TONI KROOS since I'm a big fan of both players. Since the forum's already on the PIRLO wagon i'll go with Bayern and KROOS to finish Juve off.

Barcelona/PSG would have been a better tie if Ibrahimovic didn't miss the first leg, PSG won't win at the NOU Camp but anything could happen in france and all PSG have to do is score at CAMP NOU and they might have a chance don't see it happening though.

Real Madrid/Gala Madrid should advance comfortably here but hey Drogba's been a hero before.

Dortmund/Malaga tghis isn't as one sided as people think. Malaga have a pretty good side with amazing players like Isco that could make it hard on Dortmund. Ib expect Malaga to win in spain and then it's all about scoring in Germany to get through. I'm going against the grain here and say Malaga pulls off the upset.

SEMIS

Madrid/Barca
Bayern/Malaga

Madrid/Munich the final.

You hear what Andy Townsend and Gareth Southgate said?: Townsend said "Juventus have no stand-out players" and Gareth Southgate: "Bayern Munich have no match winners." How are these people still employed? It's just a joke. Buffon, Chiellini, Vidal, Pirlo? or how about Gomez, Mandzukic, Ribery, Muller, Kroos? Oh not good enough ey? I suppose, if they're not named 'Gareth Bale' they're no-one. :disdrogba
