    Easy draw for Smelltic.

    Could have been a lot worse.

    They should comfortably see off Juve in the first leg to make the second a formality.

    I think Smelltic stand a great chance of winning old Big Ears and be up there with the Big teams like Notts Forest.

    Real Madrid are 3rd in La Liga, 13 points behind Barca. Not in form, in other words. The Mancs have a chance, definately.

    CL form and league form don't always match. Plus, the games aren't until February and they might hit top form by then.

    bit harsh to call them average when they are 6 points clear n the premiership. If they are average what are the teams underneath?

    Champions League wins by country -
    Spain 13
    England 12
    Italy 12
    Germany 6

    Last 10 Champions league finalists -
    England 8
    Italy 5
    Spain 3

    Last 10 Champions league winners
    England 3
    Spain 3
    Italy 3

    All of Spains wins and finalists come from Barcelona. Whilst the English has provided 3 different winners. So to say it is inferior is untruthful. Basically, your talking nonsense.<ok>

    Plus the 6th best team in the Premier League (finishing 25 points behind 1st place) last season won the Champions League last season. Aye, really overrated <laugh>

    One day you English will agree with us about your league being over rated . Every season it gets worse , last season Chelsea win was a fluke , you will soon be down to only 3 teams then it might strike home . Last Sunday West Brom v West Ham actually gave me a sore neck watching it on the telly , seen more skill up the park walking the dog . Not one media outlet had the balls to slag it , but Man Utd beat either of them 3-2 coming from behind and you think your world beaters .

    You don't win the champions league by fluke. they had some luck, as do most teams that win it. I've given you the facts that say the english league is at least on par with any other. Your post is just full of bitter jealousy.

    Now Barca have lost out to Vilanova/cancer I can see them dropping points and as good as Atletico are I think Real will be the big winners, besides the fact that Mourinho will want more than anything to leave at the end of the season with big ears number three I fancy Real to win the ECL.

    Sad as it makes me, we'll lose another Eoropean Cup Final - unless our English cousins get behnd us in the final at Wembley

    No jealousy but the damage epl is doing to British football , the wages obscene , your sell out crowds are made up of people / foreigners more interested in taking photos than watching the football .The real football fan dosn't get a look in . Highlight of my season is Chelsea and Man City going out , yet still the media turn a blind eye to it , despite spending over 300 million on each team , yet my team can get through on spending only 10 million .

    Your league is incredibly ****. I'd have to be paid to watch scottish football, it's ****ing dreaful. If you really think it's any better than some of the stuff in League 2 in England then you're ****ed. I admit Celtic are decent, but most of the other teams are ****ing awful.

    And why is it sh£te ??the money in your league has killed football in Scotland . Why if the football is so poor nearly every club in your top two leagues has a Scottish player or somebody who has played spl football . Charlie Adams was below average in our league , 10 million pound player in your league !!! Remember our attendances are still top when you bring in % of population
