Champions League Draws

on Friday 27 August 2010

So the champions league draws are out and there are some pretty interesting pools to look out for, Barca and Chelsea have relatively easier pools as Barca has to face greek Panathinaikos and the danish side Copenhagen and Rubin Kazan which are definitely easier sides when we look at the big spending Barca .
 Chelsea will face the french side Marseille and slightly tough Sparta Moscow who on their day could be lethal.
Holders Inter and Rafa will face the super charged Spurs who are in a great form after thumping Young boys and finally reaching the champions league after decades. Fc Twente and the German Werder Bremen are also in the same pool.
Bayern Munich who had a great tournament last year and they had the honor of being registered in my revenge book :) will Face AS Roma and Basel. and in my opinion they can easily qualify from this group and I hope this time the Red Devils teach them some lessons.
My Devils will face Valencia and Rangers, Valencia are on a low after loosing David Villa and Silva and some body will have to step up to fill the gaps. Kingdom mates Rangers can be a bit of problem as both teams have some history when it comes to crucial ties also Rangers' Coach is Fergie's good friend and is ready to take on the challenge.
And the group of Death this time is the one to anticipate where Almighty Real are facing Ajax and and AC Milan. This will be a real test for Mourinho and his big guns as they can not afford to drop the ball yet again at the group / second stage, and If even Mourinho is not able to take them to the glory then the Real President (and may be some one else) should jump from the top of Bernabeu. :)
Arsenal would also be delighted as they will face Braga, Partizan and  Shakhtar Donetsk.
