during last two seasons italian teams was knocked out by English....they will be under tremendous pressure to deliver this time....hope English team does hat-trick this time by knocking out Italians third time.
It will be a tough match for Utd against Milan. yes Milan has not been in good form until late, but post Cristiano Ronaldo, Man Utd has lost a bit of a bite. I would love for Utd to win this tie but then I guess a full strength Utd team can put it across Milan. Utd have injury problems off late, and they are not the same with the youngsters. So would wish to see Giggs and co. fully fit and fighting. Hope Sir Alex will find a way to blow off AC Milan. Go Utd!
All 3 english has a very tough tie:- ManU v/s Ac Milan Chelsea v/s Inter Arsenal v/s Porto last time no Italian team were in QF...hope they'll make this time as their 3rd team Fiorentina is pitted against Bayern Munich.

I am not sure whether AC Milan is that tough an opponent. May be based on their history but definitely not based on current form and team. The odds are the second highest for AC Milan so I think that is a fair assessment of what the punters think of them. I think this is the best chance for Utd to put it past them. Will be fun to see Beckham back at the theatre of dreams. Wonder what sort of a reception he will get

AC Milan were in tatters until recently, but they are having sort of a comeback with Ronaldinho in good form and Pato looking very impressive. Having said that, Utd are still the favourites going by current form. I'll be more interested in the Chelsea-Inter tie though! Btw, Rohit, are u the same as IIMC 2004 batch? If yes, then it's Samik from the same batch.. good to read ur comments :)
