Eugene BELOZEROV
Before the draw more than a week, but since ended the last European Championships, taking place on the fall-spring system, I think it's time to announce the list of participants.
Although, maybe not all, for 21 and 22 June disassemble the responsible men of the UEFA disciplinary case against the "Steaua" and "Besiktas", accused of corruption.
The next day, in a similar case would go and "Fenerbahce", and if the last chance to get rid of slight shock large enough, the first two I would not be jealous.
Not so long ago put behind bars for three years president of the notorious "Steaua" Gigi Becali, convicted for taking a bribe before the game with the "Universitat" from Cluj in 2008.
A "Besiktas", fell under suspicion for "strange" the Turkish Cup final-2011, forgave the past year, but now, I think, the Turkish club not wriggle, and will need to find a replacement.
On the "Metalist" is no mention in the release of Nyon yet. And Lausanne is silent ...
"Shakhtar" on upcoming hands, while not think less of everything. He comfortably took a comfortable place in the second basket, and must pray to God that he has not got out of the third "Juventus", "Manchester City" or Dortmund "Borussia".
Newcomer of the Champions League, "Metalist" while there is no need to worry, too. All contestants are passable. Is that PAOK, strengthen the financial with the arrival of a Russian businessman Ivan Savvidi, and "Grasshopper" from rapidly progressing lately Switzerland (think which reached the semifinals of the Europa League, "Basel") are able to surprise.
Three other weaker. Belgian "Sylt", though, and went into the Cup UEFA-2006/07 Moscow "Locomotive" and then left the band, "Metalist" no match. "Nordsjaelland" can take place even without heads in the style of Louis Adrian. And another acquaintance "Salzburg" recently cut funding with all the ensuing consequences. But here's more ...
In the Europa League will begin the first of our forgotten about the European competition "Chernomorets", replaced in the top six Ukrainian blundered at the start of the debut evrosezona, almost became for him at all last season, "Arsenal". Odessits start in the second round and the first of our know their opponent, or even a couple. Must pass all though, mindful of last year's fiasco in the duel with the "Tromsø" Donetsk "Metallurg", meetings with the Norwegian "Stromsgodset" strong lead in the championship of the country, we would like to avoid. Hopefully blow over.
On the third qualifying round of the European Cup starts veteran battles since independence "Metallurg". He is sowing. Strengthening the structure, the second Donetsk club has a chance to break not only in the fourth round, but in the group stage. But, first, the composition of the team until Yuri Maximov does not strengthen, but quite the contrary. Sale of Alexander Volovik, who left in the "Miner", seriously weakened the center of defense. And secondly, worthy opponents in the bottom of the list of missing. Opponent may be as Krasnodar "Kuban", which podnataskali Dan Petrescu and Leonid Kucuk, and the same "Tromso", which "metallurgists", taking into account the mistakes of last year, will try to take revenge. And not only so, but from the heart.
Evroturnira regulars and the inhabitants of the zone seeding "Dnepr" and "Dynamo" begin with the 4th, the last qualifying round. From Kiev, by the way, can be called bronze medals League. They have a third factor, and for this indicator are second only to the "Valencia" and "Tottenham". Nor with those of any other, Dynamo, as the "Dnepr", of course, will not play. Especially that "Valencia", as the representative of the country of the first eight UEFA rankings, already in the group stage. It is not funny to the same "Chernomorets" and "Metallurg" innovation of the upcoming season ... The funny thing is that thanks to him in groups has proved not only "Guimarães" and "Freiburg", but also taking off in the English Championship "Wigan".
Another thing is that his life be expected in any case it is not necessary. In addition to the mentioned "Kuban" will appear and weight, or to be precise, the 15 teams that escaped at the last stage of the Champions League. Among them can be anyone - as "Milan", "Arsenal" Gazprom's "Zenith" and "Schalke", "Betis", PSV and frank wimp. Therefore, wondering how in the case of "Metalist", already knowing all five potential enemies (the choice of options for the "Chernomorets" shrink before the draw) is not necessary. Just wait.
Wait and hope that the upcoming season of representation of our teams will be the maximum, not the same as in the past when the Donetsk "Metallurg" and "Arsenal" could not jump over last quite surmountable barrier. That, perhaps, was the cause of the fall, "Gunners" in the depths of a lack of money ...
