BIG CUP DRAW

Last updated : 17 December 2004 By editor

"The teams I would like to play are those who went to the Uefa Cup." Mourhino told Chelsea TV. "I think it is very difficult and Man U and Liverpool did not help us. If Man U and Liverpool topped their groups, we would have a chance of playing Olympiakos or Monaco. But we can get a group of five teams - Madrid, Barca, Bayern Munich and Werder Bremen and PSV. We don't have many choices, but if I could choose, it would be Barca. Why? Because I love Barca. I was there and it would be emotional but happy to return to Barcelona."

"Barcelona play wonderful football and want beautiful matches," he added. "They are not there to kill the game, they are there just to play and to be better than their opponent. I think it would be two great matches, in Barcelona and in Chelsea."
