Favorites for next seasons Champions League

So rather than ask "how do you rate the best teams in Europe" I figured this would be a better way to do it.
We can't all agree on whose best but we can (maybe) agree on who will be considered favorites for the tournament that decides who the best team in Europe is. Movement over the summer makes this list subject to change but I want to get everyone's opinion bearing in mind the seasons these clubs have just had and their potential to improve next year. Make sense?
Rate who you think will be the favorites, no need to include odds or anything like that but I think it makes sense to do it in tiers.
Real Madrid
Barcelona
Man City
Bayern Munich
Man U
Dortmund
Milan
Arsenal
Juve
Valencia
PSG
Chelsea/Spurs
Porto

I might have to put Dortmund in tier 2.

It really depends on the transfers that happen this summer.. this seems a little reactionary rather than predictive.
I can see a distinct possibility of Dortmund and Arsenal on even terms with your tier 2 next season.

I wonder how Barça will look without Pep. Bayern should be stronger next season. Shaqiri and Dante will both provide great depth. They may be interested in making another signing as well, maybe another striker since Jupp never gave Petersen any games. Also, Emre Can should be full time in the squad next season that will give Schweiny a chance to relax sometimes.

If Milan get Rossi and balotelli they will be solid.
City should make a nice run
Real is pushing for Ibra so they won't win the UCL if he's there.
Bayern will be stacked as will dortmund
Malaga will shock some folks

As much as I'm a United fan and know they'll do good things, if they don't make some changes and maybe stop deciding to go auto-pilot, they might as well give their spot to someone who actually wants to attack and win.

We'll see how the summer plays out but, right now, I'd say Juventus is solidly better than Milan. Their defense is truly exceptional and you would imagine they'll upgrade quality depth a bit and bring in another elite striker.
Milan's success may depend on whether the move from Fiorentina sparks Montolivo back into top form. He's an elite talent but really hasn't played that well this past year. Milan have a lot more work to do in the summer to catch Juve.

Just wanted to bump this thread now that the season is coming up. I made a few changes to the tiers, what do y'all think?
