Liverpool Real Madrid memories... In his column for , Aldridge shared his thoughts about the upcoming rematch between last season's finalists. He elaborated: "We've Real Madrid again for the umpteenth time, and I say that because they've won the tournament 14 times and Liverpool have six times. They are two massive clubs because of the pedigree in this competition. So I'm not surprised to see Liverpool get Madrid in the last-16 stage." Aldridge, who lifted four trophies during his two-and-a-half-year stint with the Reds, asserted that the draw is not ideal for either team. He added: "It's not ideal, but it's not for them either. There were a lot easier draws for Madrid, and they won't be happy with it, let's put it that way. We've just got to get on with it. You can't use the last two finals as 'we owe them this and that', it doesn't work that way." Aldridge remained hopeful of a positive result for his team despite losing thrice to the La Liga giants in the last four years. He concluded: "They beat us the last two times in the final and they knocked us out in the quarter-final, and the law of averages we may be due one. Over two legs, it may be difficult. The second leg will be at their place at the Santiago Bernabeu, but by next February we will hopefully have all of our players available and not injured, and hopefully have had some recruitment as well in January."
