UCL Draw Thread

[Billy. 2,742]

According to the retard fans of Arsenal and Liverpool Chelsea fixed the Champions league group draw

[sLOVEnian Blue 74]

First Chelsea played against my local team Olimpija in preseason and now they will square up against their arch rivals NK Maribor. Even though they are our rivals I'm still happy that they qualified for Champions League, because it's a huge achievement for the whole slovenian football. I always support all slovenian teams in Europe, but this will be different because Maribor will play against a team that I've supported since a child. I just hope we don't trash them badly, so i would take a nice 3-1 win at the Bridge and a high-scoring draw like 3-3 in Maribor, so it can be an exciting match for the whole country of Slovenia.

Liverpool are gonna get fucked by Madrid, but should get through. City-Roma will be one sided and City will win their group. Arsenal should come in 2nd again. We should clinch R16 qualification after 4 games. WHAT A GOOD DRAW!!! (:

Pretty decent. The only real problem is right at the beginning of the comp with Schalke H then City away four days later.

Charlie Nicholas on SSN "those famous Anfield nights". Oh do fuck off.

On those away leg nights, expect the resumption of liverpool players houses being burgled....

[Chelsea Legend 11 4,062]

I just figured it out... The Liverpool game is November 8th, not October

Woops. My bad.

[RoyalBlues 4,050]

Just seen the draw

Hahaha at Gooners, Pool and Citeh.

So this is what it feels to be like MU fans when they always get an easy group.

[Namika 922]

We got lucky with the fixtures, we will play all the big teams in the PL after or before a though CL game, sweet.

[Kezza 1,965]

Not too worried about the fixtures directly after CL games. We seemed to have handled it pretty well last season iirc

[Namika 922]

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.

[LAM09 6,744]

Real Madrid and Liverpool combined XI
