I was hoping Ajax because of Cruyff.

But... We did win our first European Cup against Sampdoria. Under Cruyff.

Ajax didn't want to because it was too late into their pre-season or something along those lines. Anyways, Sampdoria again is pretty boring. Shouldn't be hard to find another team of that calibre wanting to play us. Even if it is an away game for them.

I'm interested to see if the reason we can't get new teams is that we thrashed ones like Santos, Leon or Napoli lately.

I didn't see the Sampdoria one especially because they didn't interest me and I remember how bad it was against City when we were lining up youngsters and they preferred to defend as if it was a Champions League SF against out best XI.
