the fact that anyone predicted barca losing out in the group stages is laughable
in fact, I think Barca would shit on inter

moby you're insane man

it called a joke.

infact with inter's history in the champs league i'm not sure weather we'll leave the group. lol

but with eto'o and sneider things will change
I think you'll get out of the group
but not past the final 8

I say Bordeaux make it through Group A but im not sure which powerhouse will slip up.
Also Olympiakos wont go through at AZ Alkmaar. Not the most famous Dutch team but they are Champions of the Eredivisie so that has to count for something because IMO the Dutch League is stronger than the Greek.

Van Gaal was the reason AZ Alkmaar did so well.  The individual talent on that team is not that good.  They won the league primarily because of Van Gaal's tactics.  Olympiakos also have plenty of Champions League experience.

He implemented tactics but haethose tactics left?

No they still play with them and they use the effectively and besides their loss on the first day of the Eredivisie, they've been quite impressive.

Olympiakos may have more experiance at this stage but ultimately this AZ side is stronger

plus, the eredivisie these past few years has sucked cock. winning the league really doesn't mean as much as it used to. olympiakos has had more success in the cl the past two years than the entire eredivisie

fuck, panathinaikos gave villareal hell last year

No I think the other teams are stronger this year.
Feyenoord and Ajax and better and more complete. Twente is doing well. PSV always gets up there. Either way I think AZ is a stronger side than Olympiakos.


Out of the England Top 4, who do you think has the toughest group?
