    A,B,C are strong
    the nancy man looked not so happy with his group, maybe because of feyenoord.

    Are the schedules ready? And if so, where can I find them? uefa.com hasn't put them up yet.

    I'm biased but group C looks more interesting than your average CL group. Long live the UEfa cup.

    Yeah, Group "C" looks the strongest. "D" and "H" perhaps the weakest.

    100% correct.

    Here's my top to bottom.

    1.C...awesome.
    2.E....all 5 are decent
    3.G...Valencia and good small leaguers
    4,5. B and A (City v Schalke will be a goalfest!)
    6. F... Hamburg and Villa will go thru
    7.D... Udinese and well...I guess Tottenham
    8. H... They all suck.

    Errr... don't numbers 1, 2 and 3 qualify for the next round? I'm pretty sure they do.

    Anyway, great matchups. The UEFA Cup is definitely on the up again.

    That looks like a proper football stadium to me. So you'd rather see your Milan play in multifunctional roofed concrete monstrocities then?

    I wonder if Milan is going to take this comp. seriously.

    Don't even worry about it Neeskens.
    If they have Lil Fat Ronaldo and Sheva playing... they are bound to lose in any country.

    sc Heerenveen - AC Milan would be a fun match. After destroying Setubal and Ajax with 5-2 I'm curious to see what they are capable to do against AC Milan with their véry attacking playing-style.

    Their last 4 matches in Europe:

    20-09-2007 EC3 1e ronde SC Heerenveen Helsingborgs IF 5 3
    04-10-2007 EC3 1e ronde return Helsingborgs IF SC Heerenveen 5 1

    18-09-2008 EC3 1e ronde Vítoria Setúbal SC Heerenveen 1 1
    02-10-2008 EC3 1e ronde return SC Heerenveen Vítoria Setúbal 5 2

    sc Heerenveen is always fun to watch!

    Ronaldinho got 2 goals today.

    Inzaghi just came back from Injury and got one too.

    Now just for Pirlo and Nesta too come back and will be unstoppable.
