We need to avoid Madrid and Bayern. Either of Chelsea or Barca would be an unfavorable draw as well. Monaco would be ideal, and Porto not too bad. Dortmund could represent a tricky proposition.

Order of Preference:

Monaco
Porto
Dortmund
Barcelona
Chelsea
Bayern
Madrid
But but but... Rus says we're pussies and losers if we don't want Bayern or Real for our next opponent?

My order is this:

Monaco
Dortmund
Porto

With this teams we have a chance but it will be difficult to eliminate them.

--------------

Barca - with their defense we have a slim chance to eliminate them if we park da bus well.

---------------
Chelsea/Real/Bayern - right now they are on the same level of impossibru. If we get one of those three teams - I will hope for a decent performance, but with a clear mind that our chances are slim, very slim.

The German teams continue to do well in the CL, I don't want to sound ignorant, but outside of Bayern and Dortmund I don't see much talent. There's something wrong about the Italian teams, and something right that the Germans are doing which the Italians are ignoring.
Schalke has a great youth academy and they were the ones that helped the reach the CL again.
Meyer, Goretzka(though, bought from Bochum), Ayhaan, Kolasinac etc.

Leverkusen has quite some talent in guys like Kießling(best german striker for years but not for Jogi), Calhanoglu, Bellarabi, Brandt(you'll hear of him and he's originally from Wolfsburg), Son, Wendell, Toprak, Leno etc.
Though, they always shite their pants as soon as a bigger name comes to town so I expect them to draw Real, Barca or Chelsea and get whacked in the round of 16.

Next year you'll see Wolfsburg, who've got loads of money and finally a plan of what to do with it. They also have the Lord, Lord Bendtner. :lol2:

You know the irony of Serie A, is that it's fall bares a lot of resemblelance with the fall of the Roman Empire; economy, morale decline, corruption, no longer innovating.

Thing is the Germans despite lacking the quality of the Spanish and the EPL, still have some say influence in Europe were as Serie a teams are utter garbage.
Really?
Bayern can compete with Barca and Real but the rest of La Liga(maybe Atletico, but for how long?) isn't better then the rest of the Bundesliga.

BTW: The reason german football's pretty good right now are the failures of the national team 10 - 14 years ago.
Back in the day we were eliminated during the group stages and the German FA just had enough and worked on a plan.
That plan included teams need to have a youth academy of a certain level to receive the licence for the first or second division. And with that in place, clubs grew some balls and rather played those younger guys(who they had to invest in anyways) instead of buying those mediocre foreign or over the hill players.

It took some time for the teams(Bayern was in a similar situation as Juve's in right now until about 2010) to make it work, but sooner rather then later the risk of playing younger guys worked out and now German players are sought after by everyone in Europe.

Zlatan to Le France after the match :"Cristiano better than Messi? Maybe in another sport. Messi is unique."

- - - Updated - - -

But i thought that Zlatan hated Messi, every player say the same thing that Messi but experts here say that Ronaldo is more talented and more complete.
