Champions League Draw & TV Pairings

[The Richard Wright Fan Club]

Not really, look at Juventus last year. They had to beat the mediocre to be (almost) the best.

Yep Real Madrid are utter fucking bat turd.

The mask is starting to slip. We will have a tough time, but the rags won't lose a game.
You've spent so much time on this thread pissing on peoples chips, it makes me wonder.

I find it petty that Sky have given this draw no coverage or discussion what so ever.

We will see pogba then ;-). Would of liked to see tevez at the etihad again but now he's gone.

Not a bad group tho on paper. Of course every game is tough but we didn't get on of the 'big ones'.

 

[Ducado]

Not bad it could have been better but as I see it, if we play to out potential we will go far and the Rags may have an easy group but has anyone seen them play recently they are awful

People asking why Sevilla could only go in City's group...

When Sevilla were drawn there were 6 groups open but 4 already had Spanish teams in. That left groups D and G.

The five teams still to come were Lyon, Roma, Galatasaray and the two Ukrainian teams.
Lyon had to go in the blue groups (E-H) to be opposite PSG.
Roma also had to go in the blue groups (E-H) to be opposite Juventus.
And finally the two Ukraine teams has to be split one in A-D, the other in E-H.

So that meant group G was not available.

At least we've been drawn against different teams instead of Bayern and CSKA. We played Juventus in the UEFA Cup group stage a few years ago (when they drew all 6 games and went out) but you'd have to be nearly as old as me to remember playing Borussia Moenchengladbach and we've never played Sevilla in a competitive game before.

Nicky Reid's debut in the home leg IIRC.

Coulda been worse. Think Juve"s run last year was a bit of a fluke but nevertheless theyre no pushovers. Sevilla have arguably more genuine european pedigree. Lets be honest we'd take two uefa cups in two years i woyld. And bm. Well like cska we need to do em home qnd away and probably will but theyre a potential banana skin. Id say tqlent wise theyre on a par with the likes of spura or stoke. Once again no easy games but Roy Castle would tell you if you wanna be the best ...
The strongest leages in europe are
Spain
England
Germany
Italy .........
