UCL is getting unpredictable, first Ajax now ManU.

In all honesty, it wasn't that unpredictable to completely fair. Real Madrid has been playing it's worst season in decades and PSG without Neymar hasn't been looking as lethal as usual. While on the other hand, both Ajax and Manchester United have reached top form in their last 3 games. So I really saw the Real Madrid elimination coming but the upset that Manchester United caused wasn't a big surprise either. Considering the form, the majority of the players of Manchester United are in after Solskjaer took over.

Though ManU is far better team than Ajax but the comeback from the both was great.

Sure, on paper. But sometimes it doesn't hurt to also look at the performances and I feel like Ajax season has been far superior than Manchester United's in terms of consistent performances despite the boost Solskaer's arrival has brought to Old Trafford. IMO Ajax displayed the best performance in the Champions league thus far. Especially Tadic, who in my opinion played the match of his life (Tadic got a 10/10 rating by l'équipe. Only 8 other players in history got the same rating).

PSG and RMA is now out of the League and It's a shame for these two club.Having said that, I also admit that Both Ajax and ManU deserves place in quarter Final.

I don't feel pity for either clubs, perhaps because I don't particularly like either of those clubs. But regardless I believe it's a very good thing that the oil-money hasn't persevered over genuine 'home-bred' talent. Especially since the champions league has slowly been losing it's magic as big clubs with lots of money-dominated (and they still do) the highest level of European football.
