    I think being in the EL for a 2nd season could well be a blessing in disguise. We would have been obliterated in the CL.

    BAYERN MUNICH / ARSENAL / LYON / ASTANA(long trip)

    JUVENTUS / MAN CITY / DYNAMO KYIV / MALMO(stick them in here so they can get royally *.)

    Exactly. UCL will be better off with the new seeding.

    Think we might see a surprise winner this year. It's hard for any team to defend it but I suppose if there's going to be a team it'll be Barca. I'd make them favourites.

    Real Madrid aren't looking great although Benitez does have a good European record.

    Bayern for me are a shadow of the team they were under Heynckes.

    Juventus peaked last year and won't reach that level again this year.

    I can't bring myself to say an English team might win it. I'd be gutted if Chelsea won it again but don't think they will.

    I think Barca will defend the title for the first time. They just can stumble about themselfes. Bayern hasn't improved I think.

    Man City, I have a sneaky feeling they * might win it.

    Decent allround team but they have pace, movement and ability up front. The addition of Sterling will help Silva a lot as teams will fear his pace and by them trying to watch him it will free up more room for Silva, Aguero if he stays fit will do the same, then if they get De Bruyne the same will hapen again, imagine trying to keep an eye on those 4 then you've got Toure who waltzes forward and seems to score 7/8 goals a season from the edge of the box.

    Out all the teams i've watched this season, Man City, Bayern and Dortmund who arent in the CL have looked the most fluent up front like they could score for fun in any game.

    Mcmanaman continues with his pish on BT Sport, so far he has already stated that a trip to Leverkusen is nice and easy and Lyon are appalling based on him seeing them in the Emirates Cup (A pre Season knockabout in July)

    I hope to * they keep him away from Celtic Park for the Europa Games, more words of wisdom like "Celtic should be beating teams like Inter" no doubt on their way

    Utter charlatan
