I think Lyon and Bayern will pass. Fiorentina can make a lot of trouble, last season in Serie A they were in constantly good form so it won"t be easy. I don"t know much about Steaua and their form so I can"t say anything. But Lyon and Bayern are top class

Steaua is a team from my country. I hate them, they suck, their president is an ex-herdsman (I'm not joking), who make some business and got rich overnight. He talks a lot of non-sense, an hour ago he said Steaua will finish on the first place of this group, so you can image his IQ level ;D They're not a dangerous team, nothing to worry about. Fiorentina has the third chance in my opinion. Bayern.. this will be tough To mention some players they have: Willy Sagnol, Franck Ribery, MartÃn Demichelis, Luca Toni, Lukas Podolski, Ze Roberto, Mark van Bommel, Miroslav Klose, Bastian Schweinsteiger. Good luck, boys! You can do it Allez l'OL!

I think Lyon should be able to pass through, however, I'm worried about Fiorentina now that they have Mutu and Gilardino, who has rediscovered his form. I watch a lot of Italian football, and I think they can be the dark horse of the group.

Giraldino is dangeorus but his form is not constant. In AC Milan he had great days but also very bad ones - it depends how will he fit into fiorentina team and will he and mutu be able to play together - it takes time to adjust to new club nad team mates so I hope by 17.9 he still won"t be in his right form... I think it"s important for Lyon to open Champions league with victory and beating Fiorentina would be great for them I still can"t believe Milan isn"t competing this season...somehow it"s not the same without kaka and ronaldinho
