Champions League and UEFA Cup Draw

The draw was just announced for the eight remaining teams. My predictions are in bold.
Champions League
Quarterfinals
Arsenal
vs. Liverpool
Arsenal hasn't been playing their best lately (tying Wigan) but I think this could be their year.
Roma vs. Man United
Roma has no chance.
Schalke vs. Barcelona
I would love to see Schalke win but come on.
Fenerbahce vs. Chelsea
Go Fenerbahce! Sadly, not gonna happen.

Semifinals
Arsenal v Chelsea
I really do not to pick here, could go either way.
Barcelona v Man United
United does not seem Championship caliber.

Championship: Barcelona vs. Arsenal
Rematch of the 2006 final. Same result!

Uefa Cup
Quarterfinals
Bayer Leverkusen vs. Zenit St Petersburg
The underdogs will continue their run.
Rangers vs. Sporting Lisbon
Rangers going far? Eh.
Bayern Munich vs. Getafe
This won't be pretty.
Fiorentina vs. PSV
They played well against Everton.

Semifinals
Bayern Munich vs. Zenit St Petersburg
Munich may be arrested for the beating they give on the Russian side.
Sporting Lisbon vs. Fiorentina
Gut pick, not sure who to choose.

Championship: Bayern Munich
vs. Fiorentina
Munich is too good for this tournament.
