Namika 922 Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 Bilbao will be the new Dortmund/Atleti. They are amazing at home, beat RM and Barça quite often at San Mames. Atleti should be one of the favourite with their style of play, I can see them go in the Final again but I still back us to win it all.

RoyalBlues 4,050 Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 Browsing around newspaper online and read the comments. Some of Liverpool fans seems happy with their draw. I would think Basel could create some problem for them. Basel has a very good records against PL teams. Great to see they are already underestimate Basel.

Jase 43,479 Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 Not too worried about the fixtures directly after CL games. We seemed to have handled it pretty well last season iircWe did. Most of the league defeats last season came before a Champions League match but on the other hand, none of the league games after a CL match (in particular the group stage games) were all big games like the ones we have this season.

Platini has mentioned some time ago he will discuss the idea at the UEFA meeting. Just of course, it looks like the idea has been approved now.And if THAT change does happen, then the group stage is gonna be really fun and scary at the same time. Eeek!

Ollie 4,400 Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Cracking draw, couldn't have hoped for anything better really especially having tough games after. Good travel too, very happy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHOULO19 24,332 Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 I think Maribor are being underestimated a bit. I watched almost all of their EL matches last season (they were in the same group as Thorgan's Zulte) and they are a good organized side that is very difficult to beat. They will take points off teams in the group, make no mistake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
