Exactly, it's a well worthwhile competition. There's a fair amount of ****e teams but when you get a tough draw, particularly towards the end of the competition it's as good as any, similar to the FA Cup. I suspect Arsenal fans will be "seeing the light" when they find themselves in what we've been told for years is a "**** cup for small clubs".
Too right, given you'd have to beat someone like Atletico (arguably better than any team in England at the moment - certainly the best we've played) it's a hard comp to win. You have to prioritise but a trophy is a trophy and if we're in it, i want to win it.
I know there's banter between the top clubs regarding this trophy but I'd love to win it. A potential trip to Amsterdam in the offing too
Exactly! We could have 2 trips to Amsterdam in this competition! I'm defo going for the away leg at Ajax if we both get through!
The Sparta Prague team: VaclÃk - Zápotočný, ŠvejdÃk, Holek, Hybš - Hušbauer, Vácha, Matějovský - Kadlec, Lafata, KrejčÃ. I've heard of Kadlec but that's all!
And the Chelsea team: Cech, Azpilicueta, Ivanovic, Cahill, Bertrand, Lampard, Ramires, Marin, Mata, Hazard, Torres. A very strong side put out by Rafa there
