So who do you think will go through now?
Manchester United must be favourites to reach the semi-finals of the Champions League after their thoroughly-professional 2-0 away triumph in Roma on Tuesday night, but the picture is far from clear-cut in the other ties involving English clubs. Chelsea blew a one-goal lead in Turkey as Fenerbahce came back to beat the London side 2-1 and pile more pressure on Avram Grant, the manager, ahead of the second leg at Stamford Bridge next Tuesday. And then there is the all-English clash at Anfield to look forward to that same evening. Liverpool just hold the advantage courtesy of the away goal given them by Dirk Kuyt, but a side as irresistible an attacking force as Arsenal can surely score on Merseyside, so that tie looks far from done. For today's poll, therefore, we would like you to select which English clubs you believe will reach the last four of the Champions League. You are most welcome to expand on your theories by leaving us a comment in the field at the bottom of this post. Editor's note: whatever your allegiances might be, please ensure you vote for one of either Arsenal or Liverpool among your selections, as one of them is bound to reach the semi-finals.


You'd think after so many years of proving his tactical ability in the champs league, Rafa would start to win some of you over. Classical conditioning must take a while to come in to effect for those of you slower than a dog waiting for a biscuit.
He has proved it time and time again. Yes, Man U and the like tend to have, with the help of Bennett and co, the upper hand in the league but Rafa knows his champs league to a T!
Deep down you know it, the painful thing is, Liverpool want the league and United want the European...why can't we all just be grateful...yes, grateful.

I don't think any of the remaining teams pose any threat to Manchester United.

60% of people think Liverpool will reach the semi-final. 30% think Arsenel will reach the final. Presumably the remaining 10% think neither will!

interesting that, at the time of my viewing, Arsenal & Liverpool attract only 91% between them - perhaps shows the general lack of confidence in the English game.
I would have anticipated a figure well in excess of 100%

Manchester United stands a better chance of making it to the semis due to the 2 away goals, consistency, the great squard and determination,Though Arsenal did great against AC Milan i find them not doing it agaist Liverpool who have a great record in the Champions League. Arsenal does not have depth they rely on a very small pool of players . Chelsea has the squard and ability to come back and win against Fenabache at Stamford BRidge, they are playing well at home

The final should be man utd vs. liverpool, and the former narrowly beating the latter either 1-0 or
2-1.
