Champions League Draw
Hopefully Thierry Henry doesn’t blow out his knee the week after making his home coming back at Arsenal like David Beckham did soon after returning to Old Trafford. You know to believe that of all the clubs Barcelona wanted to avoid, Arsenal would be the one due to playing such a similar brand of football. Considering Barcelona vs Arsenal is in the same pairing as Inter-CSKA Moscow I’ll be rooting for Arsenal to pull off the upset as I’d love to see a Inter-Arsenal semi finals….if Inter handle there business against CSKA first.
Manchester United can’t be too happy either drawing Bayern Munich who are playing some of the best football from Novemeber onwards either. Also good for French football that Lyon and Bordeaux will go head to head which will ensure one French club making it to the semi’s.
