Champions League 2007/2008 Group stages

**DJDamyard** · 28 May 07, 10:47

The reason I have started this thread so early is because I want to move on from that last champions league.

Sweet thanks for the thread mate , must off took time with the colours !!

Not that im a fan of scottish football .. but i think that scotland should have at least 1 automatic spot , especially considering what celtic did this season

Thanks.

I agree with the celtic thing, I am also not an SPL follower butlots of peaple in my class are celtic fans and I chack their scores now and then to see how they are doing.
But then you've got to see, who could you take away from the Group stages to put a Scottish team in there. (I'd take away Roma(3rd place Italian league)

**Diavolo** · 28 May 07, 13:37

What's with all the colours? It's not the most readable piece because of that though I admire your enthousiasm.

**La Bling** · 28 May 07, 16:11

Any early predictions? I'm thinking Inter - Man U.

**Suneet** · 28 May 07, 16:47

Han, please say Inter will never win the CL.

Its our good-luck charm. For further reference check the first page of the Ibra thread.

Suneet is a good man and he'll be very successful in life.

He'll be blessed with a beautiful wife, wonderful children and will soon be the richest man in Dubai.

Ok so probably you're gonna end up with a big fat wife, your children will be drug dealers and you will live in a card board box

Lol Anyway I hope Lazio can make through to the group stages.

**K22®** · 29 May 07, 11:58

I think Inter might do it.

**DJDamyard** · 29 May 07, 18:40

could very well be an all england final..do you think we will get past the quarter's this year??

**Stefan** · 29 May 07, 19:59

There's no point in predictions when it comes to the champions league. There are a lot of factors involved in winning this competition. You need to have your team coming in to form and the exact right time and then you need some luck.

It's a cup it's not like a league were the best side for 38 games win in the cup the best side in the final doesn't always win.

It is our duty to think that we will win every season, but I want a good CL next year, some classy performances wont hurt us.

Although Scudetto is priority 1, daylight second and CL third.

**DJDamyard** · 29 May 07, 20:10

My brother told my that it will be deadly trying to get to the final due to the whole "visa" thing!...Is this true?

**shahz_nerazzurri** · 30 May 07, 18:58

Inter_39, you seriously have got to stop posting in orange. It makes it so annoying to read your posts.

Its gonna be a fun CL, and I wanna see how Lazio will do in it. The onl bad thing about Group stages is that there are gonna be 4 english teams in pot 1, along with Inter,Milan,Barca and Madrid. The most probable reason being, tht England has the same 4 qualifying for CL every season, as opposed to Italy and Spain, and thus the same 4 teams from england keep on getting higher in Uefa rankings.

**brehme1989** · 30 May 07, 19:20

Stupid competition..... who cares anyway!?!

I'm sorry you feel this way. Your wish is my command.

can i also just say, Barca and Real Madrid may not come 1st and 2nd, I want Sevilla to do it!!

**Miki** · 31 May 07, 01:45

Something tells me we'll make it to the quarters this time, at the very least. However, we're probably going to make headlines for the wrong reasons, again. Inter and the Champions League don't seem to get along very well.

Ciao,
Tim

My thoughts exactly.

Is Roma the best team in Italy? No. Is the winner of the Coppa Italia the best team in Italy? No.
Is Getafe/Sevilla the best team in Spain? No. Is the winner of the Copa del Rey the best team in Spain? No.
Is Chelsea the best team in England? Maybe, not neccesarily. Is the winner of the FA Cup the best team in England? Maybe, not neccesarily.

By this analogy, the winner of the Champions' League is also not necessarily the best team in Europe.
