Well folks its only a few days now til the all important draw for the group stages of the UCL so who do you want?  Who do you want to avoid and who do you think will win this years competition?

For me I want to avoid going back to Barcelona, Milan, Doneskt and Lisbon - bored of these places.

For the budget I'd be happy to take on an English side - preferably Arsenal or Liverpool.

I also fancy a trip to Turkey or Greece this year.

And I do enjoy going to Germany, Holland and France for the football so would gladly take a team from one of these countries.

As for the winner, I reckon Barcelona will go well under Guadiola this year and think they could go all the way.

I would have to say , chelsea will be very hard to stop winning the PL and CL this season. On paper there squad is awesome , with plenty of depth i mean cmon Ballack , Lampard, Essien, Deco ,Obi mikel (meh),  not half spoilt for choice there , also Cashley cole and Bosingwa raiding the wings has alot of potential too.
They should go very close for the lot this season IMO

If barca get a tough draw they may struggle out the group, being only one injury away from disaster at anyone time is a bit risky. Man u are similar but they have a rock solid defence, minus the keeper, to help stay in contention.

Chelsea have taken another step forward this summer and most other top clubs have stayed still, if not gone backwards like barca.

I fancy Real Madrid to do very well in it this year.
They looked very impressive towards the end of last season, although the injury to Snejider and the probable sale of Robinho will not help.
But van der Vaart is a good signing and if Raul and Van Nistelroy stay fit they could go very close.
