Champions league

unlikely as it seemed at one point maybe this will be their year... what price Torres to score the winner in the final?!

ps. Drogba, fine player though he is, is a dreadful cheat.

4-1 was a bit too heavy compare what Napoli did on both legs. the second goal was just a massive gift and the penalty was just bad luck. Chelsea problems starting to point on AVB direction looking at the latest performances. However we have Apoel and Marseille still on and teams like, Man city, Man Utd, Arsenal and Napoli out of it......
Neither teams could beat the spanish power anyway. As for Napoli if they spend some money next season to build a stronger defences they will surprise people again. My friend told me today that Chelsea trainer makes more money then Lavazzi but there was only 1 goal difference and extra 30 minutes played in front of your own crawd...
Good luck Chelsea...

England has always admired Italian defences. They've always been resolute and organised, so this years CL has been a surprise because Milan last week, and Napoli last night were really poor defensively.

Italian football is changing. They are adpting to a modern attacking game but there will be 4-5 years before they find the right equilibrium..
Regards of playing against english clubs in England it`s like a syndrome for Italian clubs. If you look at the results they have been humiliated quite often in England. If you look at the history Romans ( the biggest empire of it`s time) have also been humiliated quite often in Britain...I don`t exactly what it is but it has always been that way..

Draw coming up at 10:45

Hoping to avoid Real Madrid...

All the others are beatable - IMO Barcelona are NOT what everybody believes - Bayer Leverkusen were rubbish. Also, Basel had a nightmare, so Bayern Munich 2nd in Bundesliga, not a threat.

I would be very happy to play Barcelona or Bayern Munich in the QFs. Big winners can very quickly become losers...

Does anyone know if the QFs are seeded?

Is the draw seeded or random, it's random I think? That could throw up a few interesting ties.
