yay yay yay cant wait 
lets go barca ~ dos santos!

I'd say group G is the most interesting.
A: Liverpool, Porto.
B: Chelsea, Valencia.
C: Real, Werder.
D: Milan and fight!
E: Barcelona and fight!
F: ManU, Roma vs Sporting.
G: Inter, PSV vs CSKA, but Fenerbahce can surprise too.
H: Arsenal vs Sevilla, rest too weak.
My predictions, lets see how many surprises will be.
Champions League starts ! Football at its best !
|
Yea G hard to call, personally looking forward to E the most, unlucky Rangers.
|
GO BENFICA!!!!
D: MILAN & BENFICA FIGHT!
|
A-Liverpool-Porto .. maybe marseille
B-Chelsea-Valencia..maybe Shalke
C-Real Madrid-any other team can take it, I would want Werder
D-Milan-Benfica
E-Barcelona-Lyon..maybe Sttugart
F-Manchester-Roma
G-Inter-PSV
H-Arsenal Sevilla
How is G interesting? Inter>>all by far
I see B and E and H intesresting
Who wants to bet money? I accept anything from friendly bets ( $10-$20) a game to $500 a game if you are a respected member Who I think will pay

Wow looking forward to some gooooooood games. ManU got a good but unpredictable group. Portuguese sides have always been trouble in the past but Sporting should be a lot weaker than Benfica and Porto of the past few years. Roma 7-1 last year ez. Dinamo is good but they lost their start player Eduardo. I think Sevilla will destroy Arsenal and the rest of the group. Good seeing Lazio again. Valencia Chelsea rematch of last year should be exciting. Can't wait.
|
Hurray for Steaua - Arsenal ! We actually have a shot at making it out of the group stages.
|
Cesc + van Persie will kill you. Remember my words ;-) You barely advanced and Arsenal is still great team with lotta experience.
Oh and Sevilla will beat the crap out of you with their aggressive play and superfast wings ~.~;
You should think about 3rd place and fight for UEFA slot.

ajax was owned so hard, they vere overconfident...

hm
i was writing predictions but realized that I picked the top 2 ranked teams for every group
actually no i picked lazio instead of werder bremen
and i thought about celtic instead of benfica and stuttgart over lyon (although i guess it's too early to judge, lyon has just been forced to sell so many incredible players the last seasons and I don't think they can be as strong as they've been the past could years. their french league start hasn't been great either..)
i think schalke could have advanced from many groups, but valencia + chelsea is prolly the toughest top 2.
which means that rosenborg is pretty fucked T_T
i still think they'll get 5 points tho
but also that they lose with 3 or more goals in 2 matches.
|
Celtic is going to destroy Benfica and Milan np
|
wow I can't believe how tough the groups for the german teams are. I can't see Schalke beating Valencia or Chelsea, they will place 3rd.
Bremen might have a shot against Lazio, but with their current squad I doubt it ( ).
Stuttgart is the only team that has a good chance of advancing, but judging from their performance in yesterday's Bundesliga match, they will have to improve a lot to do so...
|
The funny things is.. The only german team who would probably advance for sure and have a good shot at the cup, too is Bayern. But well Uefa Cup jejajya^^

I know i'm right.[/b]

Lyon is not the same team as last year, they barely won a match in the french league, they sux so much, they will be crushed ;/
|
Those are some really bold predictions
|
Man U and Roma in the same group :D, time for payback baby
Look for Fenerbahce to make it into the knockout stage this year, they signed a buncha good players just for the CL
|
7-1 is really hard to overcome tho lol.
Whos doing Fantasy league, someone set one up!
|
I second all of Madness's choice, except the PSV choice. I think Moscow will pull it off.
|
Porto is not the Mourinho's Porto anymore, but the team is pretty strong right now but in my point of view is totally dependent of Quaresma... If Quaresma is injured i don't expect much from porto, but if he is in good shape i can see porto taking the 2nd place in the group, i would say first place but Liverpool seems really really good this season.
I'm a Benfica fan so i may be biased doing a review for the team. But here goes: This has been so far a really dificult season for benfica... The 3 best players of the last season left (Simão, Micolli, Karagounis). Simao was the heart of benfica... he was for benfica like Quaresma is to Porto. So benfica is trying to find a new identity. They bought something like 15 or 16 players this season  and got a new coach 2 weeks ago. So if the team is well adapted by the time CL starts i think benfica will take 2nd place in his group. Go Di Maria!
Sporting i think is highly underrated to the eyes of people who don't know the portuguese teams very well. The team is a bit inconstant (i don't know the proper word), they have a coach that only is coach for 2 years, and has been coaching sporting since then, and has very young players. And recent history shown that Man Utd isn't that hard to beat for portuguese teams. So, despite having the most dificult group of the portuguese teams, i can see sporting fighting with roma and man utd for the top 2 places.

ye, Nani vs Sporting ;d that will be sth !
well, the same goes for Abidal vs Lyon =P
