Pick Your Choice

Barca will meet either Chelsea, Arsenal, Inter or Lyon on the first knock-out round of the CL. It's because the other four teams in the pot 2 are Sporting, whom we met at the group stage, so they can't meet us. The other three our Real Madrid, Villareal and Atletico which are also from Spain so not them also. I fancy facing Arsenal, not just because it'll be a rematch of Paris 2006, but i'll be also Henry, Hleb and Sylvinho against their former team. And we can also see Cesc Fabregas in action at Camp Nou. But in terms of progressing to the next round I'd pick Lyon, because of the four teams they are not as strong, eventhough Inter has a bad reputation in European competition.

The draw will be on December 19, 2008. The first leg will take place on February 24/25, 2009, while thr returning leg will be on March 10/11, 2009.
