Champions League Draw & TV Pairings

Good draw keeps us honest.

If we ended up with something too easy I'd be afraid the laid back City would turn up whereas now we have to play.

They still lost 4-3 to a David Moyes lead Real Sociedad side last season. They are good but not great.

that same david moyes sociedad who beat real madrid,atletico and barca. In contrast we lost to burnley. Looking at one off games are stupid but i feel city are more equipped to do well in europe with the signing of otamendi
 
I was kind of thinking Wolfsberg would get put in our group when it came to their group ball, that would have been typical lol.
 
Guys Gladbach lost 2-3 Keyplayers but their Coach is immense. Its no easy, last year Gladbach lost to Sevilla, but they were the far better Team against Sevilla.

This Group is immense, because all Teams are tactically top class. Sevilla is better than Arsenal and Juventus is CL Finalist
 
Going to Seville. Always wanted to visit the city. Don't care of the cost. Will take a week off and go to a nearby resort.
 
We can get through but you know we'll get lumped with Barca again next round whilst United and Chelsea get the weakest draw in the group and then in the last 16.
 
On sheer player quality, we have the strongest team in the group by a country mile. The fact that we have beaten Bayern multiple times highlights this. Hopefully we can show some tactical quality in Europe this year.

There won't be any easy games, but any day of the week, we would be strong favorites against Sevilla and Gladbach. Juve were fantastic last year, but let's see how they cope without Pirlo and Vidal.
 
Could have been worse but could have been a lot better.

In the plus side not too much travelling for the team and close (ish) aways for any of us that are going.

Makes me piss though the group the rags get, watch CSKA fucking roll over for them.

I don't know why you all think it's an easy group.

5th 6th 7th and 19th best teams in Europe so three of these teams are QF standard.

It will be interesting but very close and zero opportunity to play anything but our strongest team.

I agree with you mate. I think we can win it but it is no piece of piss. They are all strong at home, as are we but there is a lot of unknown in the group.

They are better than arsenal to be honest. Arsenal are too naive. Sevilla play exacttly like arsenal do but they don't have a stubborn managerlike wenger

If they were as good as Arsenal, they'd be getting to the quarters of the CL not playing in the Europa.

We beat bayern when bayern were already through and dropped their intensity. This group will be really tight so all teams will be putting alll of their energy into this.
 
Happy with the draw, nothing to fear in the group. Anybody know when and where we find match fixture dates ?
