    Quarter Finals:

    Arsenal vs Liverpool
    AS Roma vs Manchester United
    Schalke 04 vs Barcelona FC
    Fenerbahce vs Chelsea

    Semi-Finals:

    Arsenal/Liverpool vs Fenerbahce/Chelsea
    Schalke 04/Barcelona FC vs AS Roma/Manchester United


    Interesting draw, looks like there's gonna be at least one English representative in the Finals. Anyway, here are my picks for the quarter-finals:

    Arsenal vs Liverpool : Arsenal have a very talented team, but they're struggling right now in the EPL. Not to mention the fact that Liverpool have played well so far in Europe. It's tough, but the 2nd game is at Liverpool and I don't think they'll allow themselves to not win at home and as a result get knocked out.

    AS Roma vs Manchester United : Roma upset Real, but Manchester are better than Madrid (IMO) and just like Liverpool, they have the decisive game at home.

    Schalke 04 vs Barcelona FC : This isn't Barcelona's year to win it all, but Schalke aren't the team that's going to stop them.

    Fenerbahce vs Chelsea : All the pressure is on Grant to get results in the Champions League now that he's lost in both English cups. Chelsea are much better than Fenerbahce talent-wise ,they're in good shape right now in the EPL and dominated Olympiacos in the 2nd leg. This match-up is their's to lose.

    Chelsea always seems to pull the easier draws. WTF?

    First of all thoughie as united beat roma 7-1 but they have got better than that to close to call, Barca will struggle to overcome the extremly resiliant Schalke, Arsenal v Liverpool = Liverpool as Arsenals form is bad at the moment, Chelsea will overcome Febs.

    on aggragate

    Arsenal 2 vs 3 Liverpool
    AS Roma 3 vs 4 Manchester United
    Schalke 04 (p)2 vs 2 Barcelona FC
    Fenerbahce 1 vs 2 Chelsea

    Semis

    Liverpool 2 vs 1 Chelsea
    Schalke 04 2 vs 2(p) Manchester United

    Final Liverpool 2 v 2 Manchester United Pene's
