Ranieri has no control over the squad and has had to take Fiore away from the first team due to the disruption he's causing. Corradi hasn't settled in down the right. and their top scorer is out injured for 6 months. Porto - are obviously not the side they were last year, Mourinho has gone and a lot of the talent has followed. Sat Rock bottom of Group H, arguably the weakest group in the competition. Maniche is the only world class player they have left. being the playmake in the side it's important to them that he plays well, he is not performing and hasn't been all season. Roma - Another side bottom of their Champions league group. Montella, the top scorer injured his ankle in the Leverkusen game and is reported to be out for 4 - 5 months. Baldini the director of football at Roma has recently said he was on the verge of walkign out then changed his mind. The coach Delnieri is tasting his first time in european football and has obviously made tough work of it. Celtic - Larsson is gone, Hartson is reportedly on his way out, Thier domestic form is lookign good, but to be fair to them, West Brom would finish in the top three in that league. The only thing I would consider challenging against Celtic is Martin O'Neills tactics, He's come up with some amazing stuff against us in the past when he was boss at Leicester. I will admit that Boro look the weaker team on paper than all of the above, but if you read into it slightly the table definately starts to turn.

The only one of those who might make the UEFA Cup (Ie 3rd in their group) are Valencia.
