yeah, maybe that match against real overshadows some poor season in champions league. we really sucked. the only team besides barca we managed to beat away is dynamo kiev. that is not a rate of a great team. what bad luck? in penalties. that is not a bad luck, something was wrong with mentality. milan can call penalties bad luck because they deserved to win in 90 mins. we were lucky to go to penalties, and we were lucky that that buffon saved, in contrary to dida, 2 pens, we were lucky that figo took maybe the worst penalty of his life, we were lucky that luis enrique missed that great chance in quarters. we were lucky to reach the final!!! i can not say we were lucky to get of hroup cause if tudor haven't score agains depo then the draw against basel would have been enough.
yes, we have squad that is able to conquer europe once again. with great additions to it we are much stonger than last year. maresca, miccolli, legrotagglie - young players with anger and hunger to taste the victory in europe and could be one of main decisive factors. milan, man u, arsenal, inter, bayern, real have great teams, but our is great nonetheless. we can win, and this year it will be the battle of mentality and luck, not of class. all teams mentioned are classy, so players' ability won't edcide much. i hope lippi and the loss in final gave our players something to think anout and they will understand that they are a great team, and maybe they'll gain that winning mentality we lacked in europe in recent years.
juve can and juve will win the uefa champions league. or i'm not Vilhelmas "Fliakis" Volodkevicius!
