this is just a prediction of last 8 team out of the 11 teams I choose though some will clash against each other this 11 teams are quite strong.
Arsenal If Only they have henry back in thier squad maybe there is some hope -

There is nothing wrong with speaking your mind. I have proven that there are teams that lack the squad necessary to compete on 3 fronts. I do not expect everyone to agree with me, evidently there are always people like yourself who are diehard fans but these are facts.
The more realistic you are, the less disappointed you will be should they be knocked out, whichever stage they reach in the competition.

Bayern Munich is a huge club in Europe.. arguably the biggest club in Germany...
but then again, they have been a let-down in previous years.. but currently this season they have not been beaten.. and has been firing on all cyclinders in the Budesliga..
My personal favourite in Bayern has to be Roy Makaay.. his technique and ability to volley the ball is second to none... but then again .. as i said b4.. Bayern had been disappointing in the last 2 seasons..
i can't really recall who they lost to the season b4 last.. but watching them against Chelski last season.. they jus seemed to lost the pace and attacking impetus.. At the back , i can recalled Drogba terrorizing Lucio..
I have not watch any Bayern champions league games yet.. so have to keep my reservations on them..
But then again , for the past 2 yrs.. the underdogs have triumphed.. who knows.. maybe a hat-trick is on the cards..
Hopefully Lyon will surprise alot of ppl and show why they are the top dogs in Ligue 1..
With Carew bang on-form , Juninho pulling the strings , Malouda and Govou providing width.. Diarra and Pedretti sitting infront of the back..
Lyon definitely has the capability to hurt any team in the Champions League.. including the unbreachable defence of Chelski...
~~ these are the champions ~~
United We Stand

Evidently, you're got too much respect for Bayern and are therefore blind to these things...Originally posted by oliverpang:As i said, these are opinions, not facts. -
Bayern is really a big club I don't dare to rule out Bayern Chances to win the Champions League as you can see from last year who know that liverpool would win the champions league after going 3-0 down @ the finals and make a miraclous return of 3 goals to make it 3-3 and go into extra time eventually to peantly and won Over Ac Milan and Win the Champion League !

Why don we put it this way--- You don respect them at all?Originally posted by BillyBong:Evidently, you're got too much respect for Bayern and are therefore blind to these things...
But that is your problem
I believe every club and its players deserve respect if they are able to qualify for the champions league.And for all i know, they made it to the quarter finals last season.....
we'll see, we'll see....let the legs do the talking. -
Not many give respect to Bayern I feel. Reason is simple. Singaporeans are not exposed to Bundesliga on TV. They can only judge through the performance in CL. I am very impressed with Roy Makaay too. Totally agree that his technique is incredible. He is a near complete striker in my opinion. Very impressed. So sad that he left Depor. To me, he was more impt to them than Tristan. Why he doesn't get a start in the Dutch team is surprising I feel.Originally posted by Jeno:My personal favourite in Bayern has to be Roy Makaay.. his technique and ability to volley the ball is second to none... but then again .. as i said b4..

Go Roy Makaay! -
Have you watched the Werder Bremen - Barca match? Honestly, Bremen should have won.
In the last 5 years, Bayers has only won twice against Bremen. Bremen is actually what the germans call Bayern's "angstgegner", or "most feared opponent" because of Bremen's very attractive, very dynamic and offense-oriented playing style. -
Too bad that I failed to watch the game and the highlights of both their matches. But I have taken a look at the stats and in both matches they have outnumbered their opponents in terms of shot count. To outnumber Barcelona in that department is not easy at all. But still they lost both matches. Due to luck or poor finishing, I'm not too sure. But they are the highest scorer in German League. So it's pretty weird actually. I don't rate Klose highly though.Originally posted by Shad_666:Have you watched the Werder Bremen - Barca match? Honestly, Bremen should have won.

Any idea where I can get to watch live German league matches from the internet? I feel that Bundesliga deserves more recognition. They have got really good players in the league. -
It was bad luck *and* poor finishing.Originally posted by hjxfabio:Due to luck or poor finishing, I'm not too sure. But they are the highest scorer in German League. So it's pretty weird actually. I don't rate Klose highly though.

That's sad.. Hope that they can really do well in their remaining CL matches.. But Udinese won't be easy too though, now with Iaquinta back again. I like Micoud though. Too bad he didnt do well in Serie A.Originally posted by Shad_666:It was bad luck *and* poor finishing.

Sure.. Thanks for the link. Finally able to watch the German league.

I'd also keep a close eye on Frings, Klasnic, Naldo , van Damme and Pasanen. There's a really, really strong team forming there. It's great to watch them play, very entertaining.Originally posted by hjxfabio:That's sad.. Hope that they can really do well in their remaining CL matches..

BTW: the barca match can still be found on bittorrent. -
That's a group of great team players. They don't need stars to make the team work anyway.. Still early in the season. Interesting season. Top 4 are really close in my opinion. Great league to watch. Too bad that the league is not popular here..Originally posted by Shad_666:I'd also keep a close eye on Frings, Klasnic, Naldo , van Damme and Pasanen.

Is it? I will search for it and take a look. Seems like a great game. -
The next match should be good... the weakened Bayern Munich vs. Schalke 04.Originally posted by hjxfabio:That's a group of great team players. They don't need stars to make the team work anyway..

For premier league fans, Bayern is like Man U, and Schalke is like Chelsea... Too much money!!!
FYI: In their last match, the goalie-trainer had to stand in goal for bayern, because all their goalies were injured.

Bayern put on a good display today morning . Two first half goals crushed italian giants, juventus. mmmm.....who is at the top of group A now?
-
Bayern are now top with maximum points. How did the match go? Bayern dominated the game?
-
did not saw the match but certainly know that Juventus Was Away from home And Next Home match against bayern they would certainly show bayern who the boss
-
well, we'll see.
-
well, ghimpheng....juve certainly did not boss bayern around! It was a very good match and both side played well.....Juve had to rely on a late goal to win while bayern had an easier time at home weeks ago...anything to add?
-
this season should be interesting.
many top teams have lost games. -
but whoever win the match is still boss dude And late goal also is a goal unless u tell me late goal does not count then we don't need to play injury time or watsoeverOriginally posted by oliverpang:well, ghimpheng....juve certainly did not boss bayern around!

what I mean is that when strong team played against strong team the team that play @ thier homeground and more likely to win..... -
Juve won once Bayern won once, certainly it showed both teams are of good quality. Credit to Bayern who beat juve at the Allianz Arena and credit to Juve also for beating Bayern at the Deli Alpi.
