To win champions league, odds

Wouldn't you be wasting money taking United & Milan since they are playing each other?

mlb · 02-14-10, 09:14 PM

I think they are just the ones he was thinking of ... I like man u simple because sir alex will make them competitve all season but I see Bordeaux as something to look at 2800 is quite ridiculos

theplagy · 02-14-10, 09:31 PM

those are just numbers that jump out, Man U at 9-1 is a pretty good odds i think. and Bordeaux +2800 would make a nice hedge if they go deep

JOHON8 · 02-14-10, 09:36 PM

I'm gonna make an outright decision after this and next weeks 1st legs, just to see a little more character in teams like United and Chelsea who are playing away.

man u wont win it- dont spend a penny on them

hedgejob · 02-14-10, 11:00 PM

Man U couldn't win it last season with CR.

mlb · 02-15-10, 12:30 AM

Exactly ... Sometimes you don't always win with the best talent if you can't use it .... Never said they would win but I'd give them a better shot than anyone else on that list ... Not even close .., he never asked WHO would win .. So I think we can chill

Barca or Chelsea for me.

Your long shot Bordeaux may not be the worst thing to take a flyer on, imo.

I´d like to go with the Milan pick but I realize that there is too much emotion in that pick.

they would have if Barca didnt pay for it

I think Milan are good value for money with these odds. I don't see them winning it, but a team of that experience and history will surely be good value for those odds. bet365 have them at 26.

Man United look all right as well for those odds to me. Champions League is much about experience and having done things before. For 9 or 10 the bet should be all right. It's a shame they play eachother.

Odds on all other teams look too small for me.

It was fair.

I think you get better odds betting each individual leg on the last 3. Not sure about ManU, +900 might be better now if you like them.

Shark79 · 02-15-10, 09:11 AM

How about Madrid ?

dachx · 02-15-10, 11:04 AM

I think that Real Madrid will win this year

Shark79 · 02-15-10, 11:06 AM

so do I dachx

theplagy · 02-15-10, 11:28 AM

Madrid at +500

took a little bit of Milan and Bordeaux

I like these numbers

, you guys think any of these have a shot?

1) Man Utd won't get to the finals this year.
2) Bordeaux lack what it takes to win the CL.
3) Milan's defense is a concern and they seem not to have a CL-class goalkeeper.
4) Bayern's chances are strictly down to Ribery's health and form. I can't put money on a team that's over-reliant on one player.

Outside of Chelsea, Barcelona and Real Madrid, the only 2 teams I'd consider are:

Sevilla +1250
Lyon +5000

JohnAnthony · 02-15-10, 11:38 AM

Which team does Bayern play if they qualify to semi-quarters? can anyone post a tree I can't seem to find..

theplagy · 02-15-10, 11:45 AM

I thought they redraw again after this round
