Who are this year’s Champions League favourites?

Barca in final
Utd in Quarters
Chelsea in Quarters
Madrid in final/semis
Bayern in semis
City quarters

For whatever reason I think City will struggle again. Just for want of experience still playing together at this level. They'll get out the group this time but get caught cold against a less fancied side.

United will play a lot better for sure. Ferguson will demand it, and will keep the side more stable.

Chelsea will be very strong in defence of their title. They look excellent right now and will cause serious problems to anyone.

Barcelona will be a threat as ever, but the team I really fancy to FINALLY get back into the big time and win it is Madrid. They were so close last year, penalties denied them the final but I think they can take one more step.

united semis
madrid semis
barca final
city quarters
chelsea look a better team than last yr and they're always strong in europe but without drog for the big occasion i'd say quarters
