Damn. Haven't looked ahead at our PL fixture list but lemme guess, a bunch of matches against the big boys right around our CL ties again?

how many chelsea supporters in israel?

Decent numbers. Obviously Man united and Liverpool are still ahead. But give us some time.

But on younger ages, Chelsea are topping Liverpool (obvious reasons).

And now for the most important thing, where can I but tickets for the game? I guess via the site it will be only for members or w\e ?

OMG CR7 looks so poor when i watched his and Massi&Suarez playz He only shooted to empty box, Messi and Suarez look more creative then him

Happy with that group.

Here are some stats/facts about our group...

- Chelsea last played Porto in the 2009/10 group stage, winning 1-0 home and away. Nicolas Anelka scored the winner in both games. Overall, Chelsea have won 3 and lost 1 against Porto in the Champions League.

- Chelsea have never played Dynamo Kiev in Europe before but Jose Mourinho has - his Inter Milan met them in the 2009/10 group stage, drawing 2-2 at home and winning 2-1 away.

- Maccabi Tel-Aviv are currently managed by ex-Watford boss Slavisa Jokanovic. Chelsea have never played them in Europe before but we have played a side from Israel previously - Hapoel Tel-Aviv in the 2001 UEFA Cup, where we lost 3-1 on aggregate.

not sure if trips to Kiev and Tel -aviv should be seen as us dodging bullets just yet..

We do have 2-3 big matches in there. Am hoping the Dynamo Kiev match will be on Matchday 2/6!

we can't ask for anything better. Lets just not fuck it up !

Good chance to focus on PL and CL, we better be at the top of the table by the time CL group stage matches are over

I can see United struggling to finish top of that group. They could even miss out again, how funny would that be!

No way. PSV is weak, CSKA is decent, Wolfsburg is usually pretty good but the loss of De Bruyne is massive. No creativity without him. Their strikers are Dost and Bendtner... I was surprised to see they didn't strengthen during the summer.

All those teams would kill for Utd's players. If Utd doesn't top that group they're absolutely terrible.

City should finish top of their group as well with all that quality. Disgraceful European record yet they're such a big dog in England. Them choking in Europe again wouldn't help Chelsea in the league.

Mid-week trips to Ukraine and the middle east....

This is by far the group with the most air miles. Gonna be a problem for the following EPL matches for us.
