As for me, i am bluesky so i represent the blues, so i strongly believe this is the season for Chelsea to win the Champions League. i believe jose can do it for Chelsea cos he is capable of winning any trophy in these planeet.

when it comes to the Champions League it does not matter if you sign riquelme, ronaldinho or kaka but its about the tactics you play


the teams that will go further in the UCL are the teams who

(a) play a slower tempo game

(b) hold the ball on for long periods of play

(c) get home ground advantage in the 2nd leg knockout ties which is a big plus, which we don't know yet obviously


the faster style of the EPL will not win you the UCL

milan or sevilla

tactically they are stronger than most teams. i can see sevilla doing a porto of 2003 with a good manager and very good players but are underrated

milan always do well in europe


Liverpool might focus on the league, would be happy with a quarter or semi final spot Smile

If United fall any further in the league then strangely enough I can see them winning it, however at the moment the squad is far too stretched to even reach the semi's IMO.

The 4 teams i think will be in the semis are:

Man Utd
Arsenal
MILAN
SEVILLA

I think milan are most likely to win it. However sevilla may pull off a surprise. It will be emotional for them and they'll be even more determined as they've just lost puerta.

I completely forgot about Werder Bremen. IMO they also have a very good chance of going far in this competition. They could easily get to the semis.

"Easily get to the semis"?! They should be happy with the quarters, if they qualify at all.

I've been rooting for them in the last couple of seasons in Europe, but now they've sold Klose i don't think they can go far, despite having a few more quality players (like Diego). I'm not even sure they can qualify from their group, even though on paper they're favorites for 2nd place.

We'll see...

Werder Bremen and Sevilla will both get to the semis. Thats my prediction.
Have you seen Werder's squad. Here are some of their players and some clips of them.

Hugo Almeida - free kick against inter:

Diego - scores from his own half:

Torsten Frings - long range 'bullet' in the world cup:

They also have some good very good centre backs in naldo/mertesacker.

Of course i've seen Werder (and all the goals ou posted). I've seen them in CL games and some Bundesliga games over the last 2-3 seasons. With Klose they were deadly because their main problem has always been defence so they often had to score more than they allowed. Without Klose they look like they don't have what it takes to take on teams such as Chelsea, Valencia and other big European teams.

They seem to have bounced back from their bad start to the season, but i'm not convinced that their strikers are enough to cover Klose's departure. They're mostly inexperienced and haven't scored that many goals in their career. Maybe they can shine in Klose's absence, but i don't understand how you can be so sure they WILL. Unlike the previous 2 seasons (when i was sure Werder would turn some heads in Europe), this time i have my doubts, to say the least.

PS: saying Sevilla will go to the semis is not as big a gamble as saying Werder will, i hope you realise that

Yeah, Sevilla have a very good chance, and are right up there with a lot of the big boys.

Bremen will struggle without Klose in my opinion. I thought they would make the UEFA final last season, but they were very disappointing when they went out.

The goal king have lost their top scorer, so i can't see them being a danger in the CL, or challenging for the Bundesliga this season.

There best was last season, when they should've won the league and reached the UEFA cup final. They didn't, and they look weaker now.

Who Will Win CL 07-08?
