Arsenal,who eliminated holders AC Milan in the first knockout round, will face five-time European champions Liverpool.
AS Roma,who knocked out Real Madrid CF in the last round will face Manchester United FC,who defeated the Italian side 8-3 on aggregate at the same stage last term.
FC Schalke,who got past FC Porto on penalties to make the last eight for the first time,will have home advantage for the first leg of their tie against FC Barcelona,winners of the tournament 1992 and 2006.Chelsea,semi-finalists in three of the last four campaigns,will visit Fenerbahce SK,competing in the last eight for the first time.

I can't choose between Arsenal and Liverpool.
I would be for Arsenal 100% if Eduardo is not injured...
Liverpool has more players I like (Torres,Pennant,Babel,Reina,Riise,Mascherano) and I adore when their fans sing "You'll never walk alone",it sounds so great.
Man.Utd. is too good for Roma (I don't think Roma is bad,furthermore,I even like Roma,but Man.Utd is just better).
Barcelona is my number 2 team in the world and between Chelsea and Fener I also can't choose.Chelsea is bigger and way more expensive,but I would like to see some smaller club going that far in CL...

Look at the 4 fixtures, I think Barcelona got the easiest opponent, followed by Manchester which faces AS Roma. Fenerbahce and Chelsea are maybe on par with each other, although Chelsea has a better edge. The worst and probably most exciting draw is the Arsenal Liverpool match. I cant wait to see these two super giants fight it out at the Champions League.

I don't agree with you that Roma is easier opponent than Fenerbahce. I also think that Schalke,Chelsea and Fenerbahce don't belong here and I'm sorry because or Arsenal or Liverpool won't make it to semi-finals and Chelsea or Fener will...

from arsenal liver pool i think liverpool will get through..
they have the advantage of the away goal with them after the first leg and it would be tough to defeat liverpool at an field when in comes to europe...
fenerbache may surprise chelsea as they did in the first leg..but at stamford bridge it doesn seems possible..united will be their in the semis facing barca..

I think Arsenal & Barca is the fevourites to win the CL.
Man u is having a goal keeper problem and i dont think they can servive in the qt. final with Roma without vander sar.
Eventhough liverpool is in good form, Arsenal can beat them since arsenal's mind set is totally different when it comes to CL compared to BPL
My favorites are as follows,
1. Arsenal
2. Barca
3. Chelsea
4. Liverpool
I hate MAN UTD, coz their behavior in the ground is very poor especially Rooney & Ronaldo even though they are talented......

I'll be most interested in the Roma-Man U game, hoping that the reverse of last year happens. I'm not too bothered about the rest as I'm more interested in how my team is doing in the spl.
Schalke look the easiest opponent, so Barca to me look the favourite to get to the final and will probably win. It's hard to tell which will be the most exciting, as I find I'm usually disappointed with a lot of the champions league games, not that I watch that many. Maybe I miss all the good ones.
