Ajax has been drawn into Group B of the Champions League along with Arsenal.

Alright. This is the last throe. No more Arsenal for me. I will no longer associate myself with Arsenal. Screw all English teams from now on. And earlier:

I'm not sure whether that is encouraging or not but according to reports, Ajax played quite well and was simply unlucky. On the side note, Ajax has got to stop playing Arsenal. OMG, every year, it's all about Arsenal, Arsenal and Arsenal. If Ajax is going to meet Arsenal again this season in the Champions League group stage (of which thank goodness, that prospect is too minute for me too worry on), I'm going to be an ardent supporter of the Red Devils. With van der Sar on that cursed team, I think I could live with that, temporarily.

My ass. Screw all English teams. From Manchester United to Arsenal to Cambridge to whatever teams in the history of English football. I will only support former Ajax players in the EPL. To hell with everything English.

On the bright side though, it is all too possible that Ajax might easily qualify for the next round. Reason is Group B comprises of Ajax, Arsenal, Sparta Prague and Thun of Switzerland. At the very least, second place. With a little luck, even champion of group B. Arsenal has always been overrated in European competition anyway.

More about the Champions League draw is at the new UEFA site.

And oh, the most interesting group is probably Chelsea and Liverpool's. Both have been drawn into a same cesspool.

Anyway, these are my predictions of whom will go through into the next stage:

Group A: Bayern and Juventus
Group B: Arsenal and Ajax
Group C: Barcelona and somebody. The second club is quite though to predict since the three of the rest, Panathinaikos, Bremen and Udinese do seem equally strong. But I'll go with Bremen.
Group D: ManUre and Benfica
Group E: Milan and Schalke. PSV might replace Schalke but PSV has been stripped of its firepower. Many of its players are gone.
Group F: Real and Lyon
Group G: Liverpool and Chelsea
Group H: Inter and Porto. Rangers might cut in at Porto's expense.

p/s - maybe Ajax doesn't have to worry too much about Arsenal. Somebody at Ajaxtalk, in reaction to my post said:

I hear you but they struggle in the Champions League EVERY year the past few years, even though they seem to have always had a fairly easy group to qualify from, until now.....

Not too worried about them, their most consistent striker is bound for Jail!

Guess who we are talking about at Ajaxtalk. Hint: some Dutchboy that Arsenal bought recently from Feyenoord.
