I don't see us having too many problems against any of those teams...

I don't know what the hype about Real Sociedad is all about...

None of those teams worry me at all. Fenerbahce would be a difficult away trip but we've always played well in those sorts of games and at home you'd expect us to be comfortable favourites. Sociedad and PSV would be the same.

It's difficult to judge competition at the moment, though, since many things can change in the summer. Our squad could very well be a lot better than anyone's in the qualifying stage, while the likes of Pacos and Sociedad could easily have their better players poached after a great season and may not even find that sort of form again (Montpellier are a good example of this).

Udinese was difficult a couple of seasons back since we were in absolute disarray. Every other time we've done this we've always progressed comfortably.

Wouldn't mind steering clear of Fenerbahce too. We would make Dirk Kuyt look like Bergkamp circa 1998
