Spurs in a Real Spot of Trouble?

The Champions League draw happened today and here's how it lined up

CHAMPIONS LEAGUE Q/F DRAW

Real Madrid v TOTTENHAM
CHELSEA v MAN UTD
Barcelona v Shakhtar Donetsk
Inter Milan v Schalke 04
Ties to be played on 5/6 and 12/13 April.

CHAMPIONS LEAGUE S/F DRAW
Inter Milan/Schalke 04 v CHELSEA/MAN UTD
Real Madrid/TOTTENHAM v Barcelona/Shakhtar Donetsk
Ties to be played on 26/27 April and 3/4 May.

So as a Manc friend of mine said 'Chelsea? Better than Barca, worse than Schalke', seems Man United and Chelsea fans are happy that they missed the Spanish Giants, especially Barca. It will bring a mouth watering English clash that I hope the Blues can win. United have Suffered more injury woes of late, with O'Shea and Rafael injured as well as the news that Rio could be out till the rest of the season, hopefully there season will spiral out of control. Ok but thats gonna be a great tie, as for Spurs haha, yes those clown drew who I hoped and I hope Real put 6 past them. Real representatives at the draw seemed very pleased  with the draw, but lets just hope they don't get ahead of themselves they haven't crushed them yet. 
Poor Shakhtar who were delighted to avoid Barca in the last 16 at the expense of the Mighty Guns, but have now drawn them, and I don't see them  having a chance in hell of beating Barca, even if some players have a off game their team is full of superstar match winners who can just kick them into 1st gear, 2nd gear, 3rd gear Barca gear.......that basically means unstoppable. 
Inter will meet Germans Schalke 04 which will see the defending champions as overwhelming favorites.
Some mouth watering matches lined up next month and a potential Spanish Giant Semi Final..............
More Banter later.
