A 6-star performance by #RealMadrid in Germany against #Schalke means that Real are now through to the next round (barring a miracle at the #Bernebeu). The #CristianoRonaldo + #GarethBale combination is rather lethal to say the least! What it also highlights is just how poor the #Bundesliga teams are once you get past the phenomenal #BayernMunich and the super fun to watch #BorussiaDortmund.
The #EPL teams on the other hand need to seriously look themselves – with hundreds of millions of £’s on show, they’ve all come unstuck against superior European opposition. #Chelsea started well and went into the lead at #Galatasaray but rapidly lost control of the game and should consider themselves lucky to come away with a 1-1 draw and now still favorite to go through when the teams play at the Bridge in 2 weeks.
