They are always among the favourites for this competition.” Last season, Madrid completed three in a row by seeing off Liverpool in the final and Ronaldo went on to insist the four English Premier League clubs are capable of causing an upset. “Many of the teams have reinforced [in the transfer window], but it’s a very difficult competition when the group stage ends and we get to the knockout rounds,” he said. “The Spanish clubs know this very well, but I think we might be surprised by the English sides, because they are very strong and have the economic power to buy top players."</blockquote>
