Default Who will we get??

Champions league drew at 11. Not as much interest now seeing most of the big hitters are out (chelsea/Liverpool), but don't forget we have a little team left by the name of Arsenal.

I want Ajax or maybe Benfica. Juve would just be a Arsenal v's Vieira. Barca would be scary as ****!! save that till the final....

I want Benfica - show you how its done, but to be honest I want Barca...

I don't want the italians, rather they meet each other.

Smart money is on Milan or maybe Barca. That would be a good semi-final.

It's interesting that all the best young South American talent is always snapped up by Real, Barca, Valencia, Ac, Inter Juve etc before weve even heard of the likes of Messi, Kaka plus many many others down the years, have we (English football) got such a bad network of scouts in South America or are the pussies just affraid of the cold and recieve offers from Prem clubs but turn them down for a warmer climate.

I can't think of too many South Americans that have set the game alight over here, Asprilla, Solano Ardiles and Juninho to some extent made an impact but many disappeared or just played poorly, Veron is a good example

I guess it's a case that the young players will go to a club with players of the same nationality. chicken and egg situation.
