oh but andy, liverpool are one of the better sides i europe.. :D
Well I guess they are if they made it this far. Like I said with Houllier they would have been down and out, but with Benitez who knows how to play in Europe they were not that bad of a side. The Spaniard is a good coach.

No English side for the CL.
Hope your getting ready for the start of an english dominance in Europe.

Chelsea will continue to improve.
MU will thus be forced to spend some of their billions or face long term loss.
Arsenal will get there new stadium and finally start winning in Europe with the partnership of Henry and Trezeguet.
Liverpool will drift back into European obscurity.

I'll believe it when I see it. Manure might be in deep shit if my compatriot Glazer takes over the club (I would be overjoyed if he does). Arsenal will have the same coach and basically the same sqaud that will continue to fail in Europe, so they are about as scary as Pananthinaikos. Trezeguet with Henry? If they play like they have for their NT in recent years the world need not fear. Liverpool still has a way to go.

Chelsea will probably win the trophy once in the next two years. Who would have thought a billionaire would save England from their European distress. :rolleyes:

Glazer in charge would ruin MU. Win one championship and then sell off all the parts, so the club does not win again for 20 years. His Tampa Bay Bucs are a great example.

Yep, exactly. Run the club into the ground for the money. I love it. :D

I find it ironic that certain fans are annoyed with and hate Chelsea for buying players when their own teams have bought 95% of their squad. Whats the difference? Chelsea have done it faster? They have spent more money? That's not a reason to hate them. The richer you are the more you will pay.

Maybe you want to play the destroying players careers card. How many players careers have Juve/Inter/MU destroyed? More than Chelsea i'm thinking.

To many people are just jealous of their power. They didn't buy any championships. (Maybe thats what Juve do but this dosent work over here ;)). They have played every game the same as every other club. They have played as a team and won their points and earned their position at the top of the league and in the CL Semi.

But tell me. How many Juve players have been developed from youth and not purchased by a millionaire? Think about it.

I have no problem with the club Chelsea, as I used to like them before the Abramovich era.

But you have to see the difference between Chelsea and Juventus. The former can basically buy any player they want because their funds are unlimited, while Juventus does not have this money flowing from the "higher ups." We have to sell players or balance out the budget before we obtain new players, something Chelsea does not have to worry about. Juventus only buys players we need or will play a huge role for us in the future. It's not like Moggi has unlimited funds to pay for Carvalho, Drogba, Robben, etc, all top players. We have to settle sometimes for the scraps or the best deals, making do with what we have. You can't even compare the two clubs really.

And personally I'm not jealous of Chelsea because Juventus has more history than it will ever have. Nouvo riche clubs like Chelsea have the world brought to them on a platter with nothing to fall back on.

I'd love it if Milan got to the Final and beat Chelski with 1-0 with a Crespo goal. Not because I love Milan but because I hate Chelsea.
i hope so too,IMO the perfect thing to bring Mourinho back to reality.
