Chelsea Claims Top 8 Seed For 2008 Champions League

Chelsea have been awarded a top-8 seed by UEFA for next year's Champions League (mirror.co.uk). This will grant the blues an easier group stage and guarantee that they will not have to go up against top teams, like Barcelona in past years, until the group stage.
Also, an interesting side note: England is the only country to have all 4 of its teams seeded for next year (Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea and Manchester United).
