9. Liverpool

It’s been an eternity since the Reds won the Premier League, and with an over-powered Man City, Arsenal and Chelsea (talent-wise) on the slate, you’d have your work cut out for you.

8. Bayer Leverkusen

Take on the challenge of slowing down Bayern Munich with the distant second-best team in Bundesliga.

7. Sevilla FC

Can you knock off Barcelona, Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid AND Valencia in one year?

6. Chelsea

Surely someone who has never actually managed a football game can do a better job with this Chelsea roster than Jose Mourinho has!

5. Nottingham Forest F.C.

Try and take this legendary club back to European glory – they haven’t been relevant since 1999.

4. Juventus

Go ahead, try and have the same kind of success this year without Tevez, Pirlo or Arturo Vidal – we dare you.

3. F.C. Internazionale

Bring an Italian giant back to glory, and play with those cool kits all season.

2. AFC Bournemouth

If you like underdog stories then Bournemouth are about as good as it gets: It’s their first year in the Premier League and they have never won a major English tournament, much less a competition in Europe.

1. Your favorite club

There’s nothing more satisfying than conquering Europe with your favorite team.
