Very difficult? I'm not saying Steaua's an easy opponent, but they're one of the easiest-to-beat seeded teams. So i'd be (as most turks here) happy.

How would've Barcelona/Juventus/Asenal sounded? I would've forfeited the game :))

It's going to be great watching Fiorentina and Juventus this season, both back to where they belong.

I can't wait for Guimarães' match tonight, I really hope they can get past Basel. :CRY:
 
Marseille was solid but the result is average. 0-1 is a minimum and we have to be careful. We have to score 1st at home now, to make this easy.
Ben Arfa is going to be incredible. When he is running with the ball it's magic. But as soons as he stops, his passing is pretty poor. He has to improve.

Ben Arfa's dribbling is excellent. he was great last night when running with the ball. I thought Marseille played okay last night, didnt really create as many chances as I would of liked but should win at home..

LOL...........Aalborg would've probably slaughtered you lot, so best not being there. :-pp

Well had a laugh watching Liverpool getting destroyed. Very lucky to come out 0-0.

However the commentator and his co-host (I presume it's a brainless ex footy player, probably English too).

Standard Liege where deemed a good Championship team, it went something like "It's got that FA Cup replay feel about it for Liverpool, against a good championship team"..................LOL, believe me, it's not, the Championship is full of dross, I should know Celtic and Rangers have been buying shit from there for years and sending all our duds down there.

Also Spain and Atletico Madrid fans will be glad to know that Fernando Torres was really shit before he joined, according to his ex-pro beside him he was "Class player, but moved up to world class last year".

Very bad game from Galatasaray last night. We nearly lost our chance. We've to beat them in Romania but it seems very hard.
 
Great goal by Del Piero yesterday evening, I was delighted with the performance from most of the players, especially Chiellini! We need to make sure we go in the next game confident, but not to confident because anything can happen even though we're strong favorites.

The defense looks tight for Juve, And Poulsen and Sissoko are doing their job well, while our attackers are gelling well together, overall the team is in good shape, we should be well prepared for the rest of the UCL matches and Serie A.
 
yea strange game there, Bule.
in the first 15 minutes i thought that we will slaughter you. but then Steaua simply backed up...very very stupid of us :( . Good play by Nonda none the less.

btw, do u have any idea if some of Galata's injured players will be fit for the game in Romania ?
 
Bule, talk to 03Gs1905... he seems pretty optimistic :P

Gs1905... i have another statistic for you: Steaua have never been eliminated by a turkish team.

...AND have never lost a two-legged game after a 2-2 on away ground. It happened 5 times already. The last three times it was in the Champions League last qualifying round... 1996, 2006, 2007. Can anyone see '2008' following?...

Anyways, i've nothing against the club Steaua, but because of its leader (the Fearless Becalidiot) i will be rooting for Galatasaray. ;) May the Force be with you.

I really DO hope you'll qualify, but your own statistics are against you. GS have qualified with a draw at home only when they played the second leg at home. In the other cases (first leg home) they clearly won that game, so went relaxed into the second game.
