    Arse, 4 english teams have 4 good managers with fookin millions to spend, with the money on offer in the PL 4 english semi finalists should be expected.

    real and sevilla simply could not defend, both teams have excuses Navarro injured for Sevilla and Ramos left, Real are just not very good at defending. Barca winging it , they got the handiest draw and their superiority showed vs a poor team.

    Inter are doomed, no way they will score 3 vs pool. Unless PL teams get each other i would expect an all english final. As Roma Fenerbache etc: certainly wont trouble them.

    A good manager and money and having more of it then everyone else will always win, look at the Pls dormant years they couldnt compete with italian and spanish wages now they can and they getting into a dominating position.

    Absolutely agree. English clubs are coming back to the top of the cycle again. If, as Kjacl suggests, 2005 was the start of their apex, we have until 2020 before the cycle passes to another league (Germany?). I see an Arsenal - Manchester Utd draw.

    And he's only a Roma sub. Pizarro, Aquilani, De Rossi, Taddei, Mancini, Giuly, Vucinic, Totti... ahh I wish I was a Roma fan. Imagine Arsene Wenger working his magic on that team.

    I could never take Dolan seriously after his Trapattoni rant saying he was past it:

    Nicholas Cage went to see Real-Roma the other night. Calderon got him best seats, he got to meet the players, whole nine yards.
    Trouble was, it was just a guy pretending to be Nicholas Cage but unfortunately noone told that to Calderon....

    LOL

    Maybe if I impersonate Bertie Ahern I'll be given the 1st class treatment he's given in Manchester! I've only got small pockets though, so I don't know if I could fit £8,000 in them :p

    I wqs getting 'deja-vu' reading that and then I realised that guy has done this before!
    It was at a Roma home game years ago (can't find it online anywhere)....and he really is a dead ringer for Cage!
