UEFA Champions League 2012 - 2013

[Soldier_of_god]

I'd split the remaining teams into 4 groups.

1st group(most likely to win): Barca, RM, Juve, BM
2nd group: Man Utd, Dortmund, Milano), Shaktar(if they keep Willian)
3rd group: Shalke, Arsenal, PSG, Malaga, Valencia, Porto
4th group: Celtic, Galatasaray


I'm not basing this only on the results so far, but also the way they play, their experience, the potential they have, how I predict them to develop, their manager etc. Also, it's of how likely they are to go all the way and not how likely they are to go far. Man Utd are more likely to go far than us, but not much more likely to win.

i agree with the list except i would add porto to 2nd group

For me -

1st group (most likely to win): Barca > Juve > Bayern > Madrid = Dortmund
2nd group: PSG, Porto, Milan, Man Utd, Malaga
3rd group: Shakhtar, Celtic, Arsenal, Valencia
4th group: Galatasaray, Schalke

dortmud has shown enough to be reckoned with and they are for sure better than bayern imo. SO, barca > dortmud>bayern>jube>real.

If you read the article, only the 32 teams that qualify for the next CL can participate. We have an steep hill to climb, if we expect him to see play youth CL next year.

I support Milan all the time. If you see style of play and everything you have mentioned, we should truly are in the group 4 not 2. The only way I would put them in group 2, if SES corrects his passing in the final third within the next 3 weeks, DeSciglio 75-80% masters defending, Pato becomes injury-prone and becomes a TEAM-first player and we get a true midfielder than can help take the stress from Montolivo.

Then we'll do just that. We'll defy the critics, the naysayers, the haters. We'll shake our fists at the sky. We'll finish 3rd.

We're AC MILAN and the impossible is like bread for us. We put some nutella on and grub it all up.

So far, they've been better surely. Let's see. They are all German teams and they will all choke in the end anyway.

Sage will be heartbroken by that comment...

 

[Soldier_of_god]

Honestly i despise myself for saying this but i really think jube can defeat bayern and dortmud. Their midfield is only inferior to barca. Wow, i cannot believe i said that, i fucking hate ladri but not as much as i hate madrid or barca. Yet i simply cant support them if they do somehow get into the semi's. Excluding inter and jube i dont mind any italian team getting past the QF's (only if we make it too ofcourse) and even winning the UCL trophy. But since thats not going to happen i hope jube somehow fail to qualify for the semis unless we make it that far.

 

[Soldier_of_god]

Sage is a hardcore milan fan first obviously and then comes his love for german teams. I wonder why he loves german teams so much, i do too but only teams i like are shalke and dortmud. I used to be a huge fan of shalke ever since they had gerald asamoah. I liked hamburg too when van der vaart played there, they were simply amazing at one point. But right now its dortmud and shalke. Maybe al jazzera plays only bundesliga games, which is probably why sage loves them so much.

I have a feeling Dortmund will win the CL this year

Last month i said they will take it next 5 years, but I think Dortmund is able to do it this year with some luck on their side.

 

[Soldier_of_god]

if milan dont win the ucl, the only team i would like to see win are dortmud, psg or any of the other underdog teams like celtic

Why exactly is the final AGAIN in Wembley this time? Would be nice to see the English press' reaction when Milan and Juventus come to contest the CL final in English soil again.

That's rubbish. Football was played during renaissance times in Italy. Leo da Vinci was an excellent trequartista.

Discussing the short time between the two finals, UEFA President Michel Platini explained that the final will be in celebration of 150 years of the Football Association's existence

true that..until we prove otherwise, the stigma ll stand. All the lost finals r not easy to swallow and its kinda sad that we somehow get used to it.

When i grew up in the 80s we were known for winning even being inferior to opponents..nowadays we lose even being much superior against a crap Chelsea team..AT HOME

But tbo i really believe it ll change soon and within the next 3 years a German team ll win a CL..i also believe, that Bayern has zero interest playing Milan next round and that they would prefer Real instead..Milan is for Bayern what Bayern is for Real..the bestia negra.

..And Real is for Man Utd. That's another match I'd like to see - in order to see United getting humiliated again of course.

Yes, this is the first time in my memory that Bundesliga has looked so strong as a collective. More CL finals are inevitable.

Would be awesome. I remember the 2003 final clearly, with some English fans showing "anti football vs. anti football"-banners. So butthurt. I chuckled. It was kinda funny.

But, there's no chance in hell any of the two teams are gonna make it to the final.

The media buildup to that match was equally pathetic. Incredible levels of butt-hurtness.

If Juventus signs Drogba, as is being strongly rumoured today, they are right behind Barcelona in chances to get to the final I'd say. Milan - well you never know when things click. CL knockouts always throw up a few surprises.
