CSKA would actually be a prime draw because by the time the 2nd round kicks off they will have been out of league action for the best part of three months
Based on the assumption we do go through first I'd feel relatively comfortable, looking at the teams in 2nd place, of going through to the next round. Apart from Bayern there's nobody there that poses a real threat....I really hope we get Man Utd in the round after that, just to show them up for how shit they are.
Dw, we'll hopefully get Utd in the round after that. Its a bad season for Utd when we can pick them out and say thats an easy draw, but it really would be if we got them.
Porto would be great, I've never been there, I think anywhere in Germany would be an anitclimax after Munich last year. Milan or Florence would be awesome and after that the trips are a little lengthy. Liege wouldn't be bad (Belgian beer's the best) but I've been to Lyon severa times and don't fancy another trip so soon.
Yeh, I woudlnt mind playing Milan (not in terms of visiting, in terms of how crap they are). Unless we draw Chelsea I think we can go a long way. I dont think we'll win the whole competition, but with luck in the draw, semi's for sure.
Yeh Porto would be interesting, as would Fiorentina. Both games would be fairly open, which would help us, although we'd need to be careful at the back. Nice finish from Hulk tonight
I was hoping Marseille would win and Milan not win.
Zurich made it.
Mairseille didn't.
The first goal came frome nowhere, no goal chances in the match, then the freekick, and goal... That was the worst possible start for l'OM
Then the first half was good.
But the second half... Penalty miss (btw, why didn't the keeper get a red card ? In the first leg, Diawara get a red cart + penalty for less than that), and then the match was finish, Marseille stoped playing.
