The Champions League quarterfinals are set and Patrick and Hayden are here to pick through the wreckage. Liverpool got past Galatasaray but face a huge test against PSG, and the guys break down exactly how Slot needs to set up to have a chance. Bayern and Real Madrid meet in the most played fixture in Champions League history, Barcelona put seven past Newcastle and sent a warning to everyone still standing, and Arsenal look well placed to get past Sporting and into the last four. Enjoy!
