Draws are out for the rest of the UCL:

Quarters:

FC Porto v Lyon
AC Milan v Deportivo La Coruna
Real Madrid v AS Monaco
Chelsea v Arsenal

Semis:

Real Madrid or AS Monaco v Chelsea or Arsenal
FC Porto or Lyon v AC Milan or Deportivo

Looks like Milan's got the easiest draw out of the favourites. Looks like a Milan vs Arsenal or Milan vs Madrid final is still very much on :)

I don't see Arsenal overcoming Real.

Porto are good money, atm. And not because they beat Man Utd, but because they performed well in their group stage.

However, you can't go past Milan, although Depor should be a good test.

Doesn't matter who wins between Arsenal and Madrid (provided they both make it through the QFs). The semifinal should be quite entertaining either way.

Arsenal are fortunate in being matched up against an EPL team. Had it been any other, I wouldn't like their changes of a Semis appearence.

i really hate this, im a chelsea supporter, and i support ranieri as manager, they are going to lose the 3 trophies worth win this year because of arsenal. Arsenal are a great team, and ranieri does not deserve the sack for losing to them, however im sure he will get the sack, unless chelsea some how progress in the champions league.

i wuld have like chelsea chances against any team but arsenal

lol...yeh poor chelsea, seen them go from ok to really good and back to ok, all within about 6 months....its a bloody shame that its happened, they got the budget, the players, manager (i think?)

either way next year for chelsea, arse will eventually fall of their pedestal (and fall on their asses *snigger*), man utd wont always b the top team.....so patience is a virtue they say, every team that deserves it will get it....just gotta wait for chelseas turn....

...its coming soon, jus round the corner.....

You're an optimistic fellow that's for sure, I wouldn't fancy Chelsea's chances against anyone left in the competition with the possible exception of Lyon. Speaking of which, it's good to see French teams doing well again

Depor to beat Milan? You guys are craaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaazy. Milan beating Depor..and perhaps Arsenal beating Chelsea are the only results I can confidently call. Hope you're not actually betting money on this :p Also chances are that Milan will defend the UCL, although seeing an English, French or Portuguese team win would be refreshing
