The challenges with Chelsea, Manchester and the Spaniards.
Fiorentina to avoid Bayern and Porto.
Milan - The reality is this. The board is splitting into two. One side has the strongest in Europe, the othe side is for the reasonable ones, including Bayern that sent Juve to Europa League which only Roma have remained (where the real objective is to avoid the nightmare that is Liverpool).
Crisis Italy It is not surprise that just two Champions League titles in two years for Milan (2003, 2007). In Europe, the English and Spanish have been master for years, and we're risking to lose a team in the next couple of years. It's time to recover the pride and success of the previous decade (10 titles and 21 finalists in the Champions League and UEFA Cup).
Inter-Milan It would be a lot easier for Mourinho and Leonardo to avoid Chelsea, Manchester Utd., Barcelona and Real Madrid, those are the logical candidates for the semifinals. Because of the tactical lesson of Guardiola to Inter, the international stature of Chelsea and Manchester, the arrogance of Drogba and Ronney and the fact that Ancelotti knows all the details in his database.
