Watching all goals of this year's CL.

My Top 3 would be Oscar stunner against Juve and Benzema & Mexes's bicycle kicks respectively.
Mexes's goal would really be tough to top off; even if all matches' level will now increase.

Ronaldo returning to Old Trafford is way too poetic.

Okay, well, 3 great matches in perspective: Bayern/Arsenal, Barca/Milan, United/Madrid

Dortmund V Shakhtar won't be bad either.

Indeed since these are 2 great offensive teams. However, Ukranian League is on strike and they won't play till March. Will Shakhtar find the CL rhythm in terms of physicality (in Feb.) against a fiery Dortmund.

But one thing is sure: Both teams can put a great show if positive factors are aligned.

I think we should post some fun facts on Milan/Barca and United/Madrid because there are quite some.

Dortmund will take it, but Shakhtar will fight, so could be a close one both sides.

A lot of history thats for sure. One thing for sure is whenever Juventus or Milan make it out of GS one of them wins it or at least makes it too final.

For those loving conspiracy theories:

And for those relishing on Madrid/United, Madrid will play United at Bernabeu, 2 weeks later they'll play the Liga Classico against Barca and 2 days later, return at Old Trafford.

Obviously, same for Barcelona with their clash against Milan

Galatasaray v Schalke

Looks very cool and interesting to me. It will be a close match if both teams do their best. Maby Schalke will have some problems, cause they aren't playing very well lately...but they still are a good team. Galatasaray won agaist Man.United and Schalke won agaist Arsenal. Schalke reached the first place...so I think they played better at the group stage. We still have to wait and see...

Celtic v Juventus

I think...this may be the end for Celtic on CL. Juventus still hasn't lost a game so far at CL. Yes, Celtic won against Barcelona but that doesn't mean they are one of the best clubs now. Juventus is way better. But who knows? Maby Celtic wins, at least the 1st leg.

Arsenal v Bayern

I knew it before, that Arsenal would face Bayern. Arsenal are a strong team and Bayern too. Still, even if I'm a bavarian fan, Bayern are better. Arsenal got beaten by Schalke...so even if it's football, we can say Bayern can win agaist them too. If Bayern will have a good defence, they may win both matches. I'm sorry for Podolski & Mertesacker that sadly, they will play agaist their German friends...

Shakhtar v Dortmund

Both teams have been really dangerous in the group stage. Dortmund reached the first place, won agaist Real Madrid, and that means a lot to them. Still, Shakhtar won agaist Chelsea, even if they lost, the second time. Dortmund favorites! Why? Cause they were in the group of death, and reached the first place. They also didn't lost any match at CL. It will be a close match maby...still...Dortmund can win.

Milan v Barcelona

Not much to say here...Barcelona will win. Milan are is a bad level for the moment...Maby they will change until February. It will be really hard for Milan to go to the Quarter-Finals.

Real Madrid v Manchester United

Really cool match! I'll be at Man.United's side, at this match. I really hope they will win agaist R.Madrid. I don't really see how Man.United is playing lately so go watch Escorps post for this match. =P

Valencia v Paris Saint-Germain

PSG are becoming a really good team lately. They got some good players, reached the 1st place in their group! Valencia played very good at the Group stages and they were very dangerous in attack, and had a good defence...at least, agaist Bayern. Whatever...PSG are favorites.

Porto are better but they should be careful. They can win both matches easily.

First leg >>> 12-20 February 2013
Second Leg >>> 5-13 March 2013
