Group C - Real Madrid, Werder Bremen, Lazio, Olympiacos

Winner - It's hard to tell how good Real Madrid will be this season. They've had so many additions and subtractions to their squad, there's no telling if they'll be able to function as a cohesive unit on the pitch or whether they'll lack the team chemistry needed to be successful.]]>

Fabio Coentrao. Playing for Portugal in the FIFA U-20 World Cup, the 19 year old SL Benfica player has been heads and shoulders above all the players I have seen so far in the tournament. He impressed me so much on the left wing; I made a video of his moves in the game during New Zealand (hey, gimme a break, first try).]]>
