As things stand, I reckon our hardest route to winning it is:
Chelsea
PSG
Bayern

And the most favourable route is probably:
Porto
Liverpool
Dortmund

I can only see a winner from City or Bayern and have them as favourites.
 
I don't want Liverpool anywhere near the Final ... not that I'm worried if we are too and they might beat us, no, we'd probably beat them still ... but what pisses me off to this date is how the media in UK has built this whole narrative of them being successful over three years ... when first year of what the count as THREE was just reaching the CL final and losing. That was OUR Centurion Season but somehow is credited to them for a run of great three years consistency at the top. They were TWENTY FIVE points behind us that season but last season specially when the whole talk was they are the best team ever in Premier League BECAUSE of their THREE years continuous success. So for them even reaching the Final and losing is somehow turned into better than us being Centurion that very season (and there was a League cup for us too btw) so our two trophies were somehow less than that lot just reaching a European Final.

So should they God forbid reach another final, they'd just go about FOUR years of success and that best team of the century or whatever narrative will go on ... ignoring our ANOTHER domestic treble or maybe even a quad.
 
We will most probably get shafted anyway so it is a moot point in some ways. We all wanted Lyon last time out and look how that panned out. I just hope we play our best team injuries permitting and no tinkering with formation or random selection. If we are good enough and our matches are free from outside influences we have a great chance.

i hear you. if they do well in champions league this year even reaching semifinals or final will gloss over the truly pathetic season theyre actually having by our mainstream media.

Shafted in what way? The draw? We are the favourites, or at least joint-favourites.

Agreed. There's too many opportunities for bias from our enemies. It's like we've got to score more than the ref can disallow. Pep knows this imo
