Last night was completed under the "Magnificent Eight", or the teams that will battle in the quarterfinals of the Champions League. At Inter, the reigning and only Italian still in the race, will be added Barcelona and Real Madrid (Spain) Schalke 04 (Germany) Shakthi Donetsk (Ukraine), Tottenham, Chelsea and Manchester United (England).
is the grid of the vote, expected tomorrow in view of the draw, which will establish the board already leading to London's Wembley final.
TO AVOID
Barcelona and Real Madrid
Barcelona are the team playing the best football, and especially not indifferent, must redeem their defeat a year ago in the semifinals. Barca's attack could be very painful to the Inter defense, not flawless. Real Madrid has the Mourinho factor: a challenge with too many feelings involved and that the Portuguese were in some way to turn in his favor. However, if there is to choose the best merengues (defense certainly not puncture, not yet consolidated balance) than men of Guardiola.
THE OUTSIDER
Chelsea, Manchester United and Tottenham
The three British pros and cons: Chelsea is the strongest of the lot, has experienced players in high level competitions, but it is not in his best moment . Rooney and Manchester is dependent, at this time, pay duty for not having a full complement of staff, able to give breath to the owners. Tottenham, finally, by its freshness and surprise, but certainly not used to this kind of competition. Again, if you can choose better mates and Bale, then Manchester and finally Chelsea.
Affordable
Schalke 04 and Shakthi Donetsk
The Germans and the Ukrainians should not be underestimated: the first is to be feared the pair Huntelaar-Raul, second the sagacity of the old fox that is Lucescu, in addition to many talented South Americans. At this point, however, catch one of the two would be a real lottery.
