NOTE:
and we cannot draw any spanish teams luckily for us because in pot 2 IMO the only teams better than villareal and valencia is ac milan and lyon.

TEAMS TO BE WARY OF:
pot 2-> ac milan, lyon, OM due to our recent european rivalries. nothing new here
pot 3-> mancity very strong squad: do not envy any team who draws them. potentially very dangerous
pot 4-> bvb and napoli-> both very strong teams; could pull an upset in any group by making it through to the knock out stages

Would be epic if we got City and one of Dortmund/Napoli.

Id like to have a strongest group possible. So we can ditch those small minded people who think Madrid is a small club.

It's a bit obvious we're winning the CL this year.

I wanna see Barcelona, AC Milan, Man City and Dortmund

Yep wanna see that, unfortunately knowing UEFA I feel we'll be grouped with the strongest teams, barca always get it easy

I don't mind a tough group because it will prepare us early on

All in all we can have two death groups this year.

Draw is @ 17:45CET so take note!

I wouldn't mind seeing us with Benfica, Man City and Dortmund.

No more Milan and Lyon, I want some variety.

Give us Milan,City, and Napoli or Dortmund

most difficult group for us would be

us, ac milan, man city, bvb

easist:

us, moscow, bate borisov, and anyone other than bvb or napoli

we will prob get something in between the easiest and hardest closer to the hardest i bet we are the ones that draw either bvb or napoli

I want Man Tity!

This guy, thumbs up

Allegri has said that Barcelona are the only team better than Milan.

Hope we get Milan now to remind his candy ass that he's a nobody in football.

exactly what i want as well zealous, lets all pray shall we

we will hand their asses back to them within seconds lol

remember mourinho's quote regarding allegri:

allegri has PLAYED 2 cl games while ive WON 2

Lucas Barrios has also said that Dortmund want us LOL

Hope we get Dortmund now as well.

For the first time in a long, long, long time, i fear nobody. Bring it on!

I dont need lot of Strong teams btw,it will force us to use First team players alot more .

We have a large squad, we can handle it.

It'll obviously be a lot harder than having an easy group but I personally want to do this the hard way.

we have a large squad but our star players will have to start every matches against big teams.Knowing mourinho he never takes risks ,

I think we're in good enough shape to do it Adit. All it means is that the stars will rest a lot in CDR. We have plenty of bench strength to get us past the early CDR opponents.

Pool play is over by the end of the year anyhow.

CDR shouldn't be a priority.

We'll be fine in whatever group we're in. In a matter of speaking of course...

Real Madrid
AC Milan
Man City
Borussia Dortmund

Would make every match interesting. However I'd like Man City to get to the knockout stages so hopefully their not in a group like that.

Go to chatbox It'll start soon

Sport, we're there already
