    Yeah I always want to see this English teams to do well regardless of who they may be!

    Inter in the final? Oh c'mon they're not half the team they were with Mourinho- I can't wait for united v chelsea and spurs v real.

    But I suppose it's all about who will be able to shut out Barca in the final?

    I hope Spurs win. I can't stand Madrid and Tottenham are like a beacon of hope to clubs like ourselves, the Mackems, Bolton, Villa and Everton of what can be achieved. It's so refreshing to see an English club do well without having to buy their way into the Big Four.

    Barca to beat Chelsea in the final.

    I can see Spuds beating Real but its gonna be tough. I like the look of Bale and Lennon against Arbeloa and Marcelo :D

    Is it just me that hardly ever wants an English team to do well? I'm always rooting for Man Uniteds, Chelseas and Arsenals opponents.

    I hope Spurs beat Madrid though

    If it isn't an English club winning it I would like to see Real win, Mourinho to be first manager to win Champions League with 3 different clubs . . . . . . and none of them Chelski!

    What are you on about? They've been rampant since Leonardo took over.

    They have improved but they're still not the force they were. They leave themselves more open at the back, Inter only won the CL last season coz they played counter attack and thats not Leonardo's style. Man U or Chelsea will beat them.

    I like Arsenal, but I always tend to want the English clubs to fail. Especially Man U, Chelsea, Liverpool and Man City. I like it when there's a different English club up there though, like Spurs this season and Fulham in the Europa last year.

    So? They've scored nine goals in their last three, it doesn't matter if you leak the odd goal if you're smashing them in for fun at the other end. And you can level the same criticism at Chelsea under Ancelotti. I think Chelsea will make the final, but only because Man U and Inter have League and Cup campaigns to focus on as well. Inter are the best team in that half of the draw.

    Real Madrid v Tottenham
    Chelsea v Manchester United
    Barcelona v Shakhtar
    Inter v Schalke

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

    SEMI DRAW:

    Inter v Man Utd
    Real Madrid v Barcelona

    Inter v Barcelona

    My prediction.

    I really hope Real smash the Spuds. While at WHL they might get a win (draw i think is more likely) i think at the Bernabéu they will get hammered.
