Yeh thats what ive heard, but that thing about getting rid of the 2nd group stage might not take place until season 2004/2005.

It will be the same teams as usual in the final 8

Juventus
Manchester United
Milan
Bayern (if the makaay signing happens)
Real
Barca

and 2 other pretenders

I think Lyon will make a good Champions League. Marseille can create a surprise but I don't hope so (I hate them )

In my opinion bayern will be very strong this year if Makkay joins the team.
Manchester & Arsenal will be hard to play too. Maybe the year of Arsenal.

I just hope Italian clubs will be eliminated early, they are so boring to watch...

martin had better get the finger out and start making some moves in the transfer market otherwise you can say cheerio to the second round this year for celtic.

Shut up you idiot.

Lyon are piss poor and will go out after the group stages more than likely getting beaten by an italian team on their way to the uefa cup.

I hope it's an all italian final again just so you "real" football fans don't get your way.

Come on the celts.

This year, they will be strong, you'll see


Italian football is very tactical but it's shit to watch at TV. Players themselves say it.
