All 4 of my teams are in and all in separate groups. Groups A, H and E are da bomb.

 

[coyoteshockeyfan]

How about BATE and Anorthosis Famagusta making the group stage all the way from the first stage?

 

[Zeno]

I have my Zenit St Petersburg jersey & hat I picked up in Russia last month.

To be honest I don't know much about their players aside from Arshavin but I'll cheer for them nonetheless.

Group H: Real Madrid, Juventus, Zenit St. Petersburg, BATE Borisov

only possible upsets i can see at this point is Shakhtar taking out sporting... florentina taking out lyon... group G is pretty wide open after Arsenal and Zenit could surprise Madrid.

i would hate to see a Celtic surprise, but i have to admit i am not totally excited with Man U's draw....

Why no West Ham?

 

[gr000000vy]

Why no West Ham?

why no West Ham where? In the champions league?

 

[Renz]

Why no West Ham?

West Ham are playing in the UEFA Cup, not the Champions League.

Never mind. That was Aston Villa I was thinking of, not West Ham. West Ham aren't in the UEFA Cup either.

LOL i used to ALWAYS get those two confused.... i think they share the same uniforms.....

Del Piero with another goal. From about 20 out in the 17th min against Real. This would be a HUGE win for Juve today.

FORZA BIANCONERI!!!

 

[Mulli]

I heart Del Piero!!

Did Roma hold on vs. Chelski?

Del Piero just put in another free kick. 2-0 in the 72nd min. I can't believe that Juve is going to take both games from Real!


And yea, Roma won 3-1.

Congrats!

 

[BirdMan21]

Congrats!

Thanks. Just had knee surgery about 3 hours ago, and this is making the pain a little more bearable. Just a blast to watch Del Piero play up to this level again.

Leonel Messi is my favorite player in the world, but Del Piero is pretty much Superman.

Messi is amazing to watch, and you are right DP is just amazing. At his age to take his game to this level is just ridiculous. He always seems to just do something amazing when its needed.

The one player I am really pumped to start watching play more is Giovinco for Juventus....he is really small and quick like Messi and every time he gets on the pitch he makes things happen.

Messi is awesome. I think he is faster than Del P, but DEl P is pretty fantastic.

I wish I could watch Kaka play.
