Since no one has opened it yet I tried to take a shot at opening a match thread.

They're an English team after all. we might find it easier to score goals [I'm not underestimating them by any means - I just think their style which is a lot different to Italian teams' will allow us to play better in attack].

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) As for Crouch, I think he would give us serious problems because of his height, we tend to make the most mistakes when high balls come into our area |

Defoe was injured for the weekends game, not sure about his fitness for this one.
Anyways, I'm hoping for a destruction, Redknapp didn't leave there long ago so they still have Dirty Harrys germs, kill them I say! |

Judging our current plight, I'd find it hard to underestimate anything. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) Least of all opponent teams, and that too from England that we know nothing of. It's not like they're someone from the league, where players are aware of the opponents skills and faults. It'll be a tough match. Period. You'd find it's better for your health, zd, when you take each match as a tough mountain to climb. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) I do, and it works wonders, really. I go in thinking it'll be the toughest match of our lives, and guess what, it usually is. Been the story of the season so far. And could continue unless we see drastic improvements. Or unlimited supply of luck. Or both. |

Porthsmouth hasn't been the same ever since Harry Redknapp left, but we should be aware of them. Hardest UEFA Cup match so far for sure. I'd say we'll play a goalless draw.

I'd say we'll play a goalless draw. I think Wolfsburg will be our toughest match. AS for Portsmouth, apperantly there have already been some complaints from our officials about the changing rooms at Fratton Park. Apparently they're a disaster, with mildew running along the seiling because of a leak they had when it rained |

Portmouth rose up a few divisions fairly quickly. So they're basically an EPL team with League 1 grade facilities, not nice.

Crouch will seek revenge for Athens. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) Senderos should keep him away from Dida.
Difficult match. A draw makes sense. 1:1 with Sheva scoring of course. |

I think a Shevchenko - Inzaghi partnership is the right combo upfront. Ronaldinho in support and Pirlo along with Ringo and Flamini

Ronaldinho in support and Pirlo along with Ringo and Flamini I think Kaka should play this one since he's suspended on the weekend and let Dinho get some rest, at least he should start on the bench imo. Pirlo and Seedorf should trade a half each, so Pirlo get's match time but doesn't over do it. Maybe start Emerson instead of Gattuso, he's earned some rest. Senderos and Bonera should start in the middle, no more Kaladze pls |
