I know we don't have a good track record against Bayern, but I feel like the media is exaggerating the drama and severity behind this draw. Munich is a very good team, even if they are in a nominal funk right now. But all this stuff about how we got the toughest matchup possible... I don't buy it.

Everyone in the QFs is going to be very tough. At least Bayern probably won't play the kind of defensive anti-football that we saw from Porto. So hopefully we'll at least be able to play to our strengths a bit more. And if we're going to proceed further into the tournament then we'll have to take on whoever we are presented.

If we make it past Bayern then that would be awesome. If we don't then at least we've made a really good shake of it in the CL this season.

Agreed we have to beat the best. Such a boring draw for us though. I would’ve liked someone new (not Bayern, Barcelona or Man City).
