Ginola Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 Chelsea vs Man Utd Inter vs Schalke Spurs vs Real Barca vs Shakhtar Inter vs Man Utd Spurs vs Barca Man Utd vs Barca Is how I see it panning out. Would've loved Shakhtar to advance, the likes of Jadson and Willian are quality players, but I can't see them getting past Barca, like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 Real-Barcelona (if it happens) will be fascinating. Mourinho's not an idiot - he'll have learnt a lot from 5-0 and theres two more meetings in the meantime. He'll also be armed with the knowledge of how to beat them over 2 legs (although Real can't pull off what Inter did). Very nervous about that potential semi, although still hope they demolish Spurs!

AyeDubbleYoo Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 Can't really see Man Utd beating Chelsea and Inter... if they do then Fergie deserves a lot of credit for managing his very average set of available players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Barca and Real both qualify for the semis they will face each other four times in 17 days. Crazy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElDiablo Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 I reckon Chelsea will beat Man Utd. Torres to come good at the right time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEMTEX Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 I hope so.. but personally I've truly lost faith in Torres ever coming good. Which is annoying because no matter how amazing a price I think we got for Carroll, Liverpool can still be smug because we basically just took Chelsea's money and they got rid of a dud.

ponsaelius Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 Balotelli is ridiculously talented. He has everything in his locker...apart from a a brain. You might be right, I just haven't got that from what I've seen of him in England so far. He's ex-Inter. Sewelly is incapable of giving a balanced opinion. FFS. He's got the physique and the technique to be world class. There are very few players with his natural ability level at 20. He's finding scoring in the Premier League pretty easy so far, and this is with his dogshit attitude. He'd be taking the piss if he actually tried and applied himself to a team. There lies the problem, for me he will always be a talented but underachieving enigma because I just don't see him sorting his attitude out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JH Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 I like how Inter are shit, until they come up against Chelsea/Man U and then they're a certain for the final I think it'll be Barca-Man U final. Possibly Chelsea if Torres comes good. Man U it is then. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcmk Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 Eh?? You don't believe Neymar is more talented than Balotelli? Balotelli, although obviously talented.. has done very little of note for well over a year now.. well, other than piss off supporters with poor performances ... generally just living off of early hype.

AliGupter Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 Balotelli has everything physically, but very little mentally, and that is the reason his career will go down as a failure. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balotelli has scored goals at the top level, which fairly or unfairy puts him ahead of Neymar. Neymar will probably be better in a couple of years. 10 goals in 18 games for City is quite good btw. Considering new country, getting injured as soon as he arrived, not being an out and out forward... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Segun Oluwaniyi Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 Balotelli has everything physically, but very little mentally, and that is the reason his career will go down as a failure. I love the certainty. It is amazing that one can hold such a final opinion on a man at the age of 20. Footballers are human and they change in similar ways to other people. Pato is the same age as Balotelli for all intents and purposes. He is less than a year older. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's no use having all that natural talent and ready-made footballing physique if your attitude stinks and you can't be arsed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
