  What is so good about AC Milan ? They are beatable anyway.Anyway, none of the teams that Liverpool and Arsenal are facing are easy , it's all down to the tactics.
  
  Chelsea and Man Utd on the otherhand would be glad to avoid the giants and i cannot see them having much problems qualifying for the next round.

  yes milan may seems beatable but the key is that they are able to raise their game and kill it off..
  
  ask Pool or MUFC for that matter..

  3 finals in 5 years.
  
  the keyword is experience.

  Yeah experience... The other word for it is Old...
  
  If they get the gunners they will have to run like mad dogs just to keep up with the gunners young players fast game who by the way aren't exactly greenhorns themselves... Most of them even have UCL final experience already.
  
  But on the other hand, the Milan team don't seem to be changing... the old men of 2 yrs ago are getting even older... Nesta 31, Cafu 37, Maldini 39, Favalli 35, Emerson 31, Gattuso 29, Seedorf 31, Ibrahim Ba 34, Inzaghi 34 and fat Ronaldo 31. Even Nelson Dida the "actor / stimulator" is also 34 then again, he is a keeper so nvm...

  Last season i guess United were unfortunate to have their entire back four out when they met Milan. Had Rio, Vidic and Neville been fit and Heinze didn't have to play out of position... It could have been different. Heinze was moved to centre due to Rio and Vidic out. Even Evra had to play as Right-Back...
  
  They had Patrice Evra, Wes Brown, Gabriel Heinze, & John O'Shea for their home match. Evra even crash into Heinze a mistake probably due to both players never play in that position before or not familiar with each others style which Milan got a goal from.
  
  and Wes Brown, Gabriel Heinze, John O'Shea and a rush back Nemanja Vidic for their away game.
  
  If Milan gets to meet the gunners, I will go for the Gunners hands down this time.
