It really doesnt bother me that we're facing Real. The injuries won't go away in time for semifinals either so its not like getting a weaker side would change much. Yes, we would maybe go through to the semis but then what? We would still have to face a giant like Bayern, Barca or Real having the same problems we have now.
Better to play Real now to see on what we stand on - this tie will show how strong we're actually are at the moment and if we have any chance of winning this competition. If we lose, no problem, that means this squad is just not good enough and we can focus on the German Cup and the league. If we go through that means sky (or Bayern

) is the limit and we have realistic chances of actually winning the whole thing, even with the injury problems.
