Schalke is just as strong as Bayern on their day IMO. While they haven't been doing great lately, they are starting to climb back up the table and they have some very good players - they didn't come 2nd in the Bundesliga last year for no reason.
 
As there's always a not attractive game I'm pretty sure Shakhtar will get FC Copenhagen. Hope my team (Inter) won't go in Spain again.

Dont give me that bollocks.

We won our group which was probably the hardest, without lots of key players..

Defoe, King, Dawson (missed the entire group stage), Huddlestone, Kaboul.

So dont give me that ****.

Oh dear god don't blame the injuries. You should've won it anyway, even with injuries. Apart from that, fitness is a skill which some players have and some don't. If you're going to buy those who don't then you have to expect these things.
 
we will get either Inter Milan because we hate Rafa and he hates us, AC Milan because of it being Carlo's former side or Roma as i believe im right in saying Carlo supports AS Roma.

Either way im not fussed, to be the best you have to beat the best and there is somthing about playing the big sides that brings the best out in Chelsea as a club.

No but every team gets Injuries, Spurs had to go through the whole group nearly without Defoe but they still finished first with The Holders in their group
 
If spurs get Copenhagen they might swell just put us through automatically
