Champs League Draw

[kupest]

How come when we get pulled out the bloke says we can only go into Bayern Munichs group? If that isn't a rigged draw I don't know what is?

Wasn't that because Shalke and Dortmund were still to be drawn and couldn't go in the same group as Bayern

Yes, but sensible talk and reason doesn't come into it with a lot of our fanbase. May as well try talking to the dog and telling him that it's not a conspiracy, he'd take more notice!

Pretty sure Juve were also left at htat point

UEFA sticking the knife in with typical gusto, tough group with a possible effect on our prem fitness with chelsea getting a piss draw, puts them in the box seat.

So the champions of England get the most difficult group out of the four representatives?

Coupled with the farthest distance to travel in Europe?

Those saying stop moaning.

It's the direct impact the competitive nature of these games will have upon our Premier League fixtures.

Chelsea can literally afford to put the reserves out before they play us.

Chelsea have earned the right for an easier draw by being in Pot 1 though

Yes but it's a perpetuating cycle.. They get more points because they're in easier groups and so finish top and play easier last 16 teams. We just need to break through we'll get there buy will have to do it the hard way.

I agree with this. Its not that the draw themselves are fixed but how the top seeds are looked after and how difficult it is for others to become top seeds. But we will eventually.

UEFA must hate Juventus because they've been drawn against the Spanish champions and last year's finalists.
UEFA must hate Olympiacos because they've been drawn against the Spanish & Italian champions and last year's finalists.
UEFA must hate Malmo because they've been drawn against the Spanish, Italian & Greek champions and last year's finalists.
UEFA must hate Liverpool because they've been drawn against the holders.
UEFA must hate Arsenal because, despite being in pot 1, they've been drawn against the Ukrainian champions and 2013's finalists.
UEFA must hate Bayern because they've been drawn against the English champions.
UEFA must hate Barcelona because they've been drawn against the French & Dutch champions.

Exactly!

But people will take no notice of you!

They will if he keeps bumping his own post.

Just need to rise to the challenge. Had we got Bate Borisov instead of Roma it would have been identical to last years group, which we breezed through overall and almost topped. Hopefully we don't roll over to Munich like we did last year. They are not the team of two years ago. I reckon we will top the group. Probably will still draw Real and Barca in 2nd Round. Agree that pot thing is ridiculous. Roll on next year when we will be in Pot 1 drawing PSG, CSKA and Roma instead

Group of death 3 out of 4 seasons and the only major club in Europe to be fined fortunes. mmmmmm?

It was because of our sudden emergence that any froup we were in was going to be the group of death for the first two years at least
