The Champions League knockout stages starts and there are some tasty ties but one stands out. Two giants of European football doing battle with both having a genuine chance to win the trophy. But that's enough with Galatasaray and Shalke.
Do you see what I did there?
Yeah yeah
Let's talk about Real Madrid against Manchester United. Bob, are you excited?
I'm very excited. But listen, let's talk about Galatasaray and Schalke
Well tell me Galatasaray's best player.
Errr the the big lad up front, yeah the big lad up front
The little number ten, the little number ten
Well Colin Kazim-Richards has gone
He's gone mate
I understand your joke and facetiousness, but take my tip a Turkish team will win the European cup in the next five
No they wont, do you know what that sounds like, that sounds like Pele saying an African team will win the World Cup before 2000
No, but Man United against Real Madrid - yeah that'll be a good one. You know what I fancy, you know what I really, really fancy? Celtic - Juventus
That's a game.
It's going to be a cracking game, and I don't know why because nothing common sense told me but I think Celtic are going to beat them. I think Celtic..
Really? Well I have to disagree there because I saw Juventus spank Chelsea I must say and I'm not saying I got any pleasure out of it - even though I did, but I think Juventus are too good for Celtic
Will Rod Stewart cry again? that's the question.
Celtic are one of the few teams left in the European game that have got no right to be there, but survive on this incredible atmosphere and this
Have you been to Celtic park?
Yeah
Have you been to Celtic Park? It's absolutely one of the most brilliant places to watch football, fantastic place.
So you like Celtic Juventus, what about for you Will, what's the tie that stands out? Real Madrid and Manchester United are two giants of European football
And what happens to Mourinho if they get knocked out? Does he just leave Madrid, have a strop..
He's on a contract 'till the end of the year
Yeah, but he can walk out of a contract.
No one's ever broken a contract in football..
Do you think Manchester United will beat Real Madrid?
Errr.. It's fifty fifty. I think Man United are slightly out performing at the moment, and Real Madrid are under performing. I think Ronaldo is possibly the best player in the world, and so if he plays well
Who?
Ronaldo, Christiano Ronaldo.
I'll tell you the problem with Madrid, it's since they got poncey and insisted on Real. When I was a kid, when they were real Madrid, they were a top team then.
You still call Thierry Henry "Terry Henry", don't you?
Real Madrid, and Ajax. I remember when
Ajax!
Real Madrid and Ajax, that was a proper football match
My dad was a member of the association of Jewish ex-servicemen, and that was ajex.
Aaah
Well I used to call the I-ax just to wind him up
Err, no, because it's going to wind you up and then you'll give the points to him, but I think Bayern are going to win it.
You think Bayern are going to win the Champions League. What about you?
Real Madrid.
Real Madrid, see?
