The stronger ones would be only:

- Real

- Barca

- Bayern

- Dortmund

then Juve and us, then Manu.

IMO ofc.

Wouldn't mind a toughish group, a couple of big wins in the Champions League can really boost our confidence in the league. Plus, its a great indication to see where were at to win it.

We're going to have to beat the best teams anyway.

Think the Champions League is really wide open this year. Have a feeling it could be an all English final, call me crazy!

jallet, alex, silva, maxwell, matuidi, verrati, moura, pastore/lavezii, cavani , ibra.

their 1st team is good enough to give nightmares to any1.

They're not UCL material yet trust me.

I too am surprised not to see PSG there.

PSG is one dark horse to me. I would even place them ahead of Dortmund, Real, Chelsea, MUnited, Juve any day.

They're not UCL material yet trust me.

but the mould of experience and youth is amazing in that team. moreover the no. of matchwinners are the real reason these guys give me the hibbie jibbies... can turn the game around in a second. i for one dont want them in the group , infact atleast until quarters.

Yeah ofcourse I'm not saying they're weak I'm saying that I don't see them winning the CL.

[Peppen 934]

Hope we draw Copenhagen!

Pottential difficult groups

Chelsea, juve, Dortmund, Real socieldad

Chelsea, PSG, Galatasaray, Anderlet

Chelsea, Athleticomadrid, Bayern leverkusen, Napoli

These are the worst three possibilities. I dont want to face

1. Galatasaray (i surely dont want to imagine our CB's vs drogba)

2. Dortmund (Klopp has beaten Mourinho a few times now)

3. juventus (Just so tough to beat)

4. PSG (Cavani, ibra, lavezi, lucasmoura is a bloody attack)

5. Athleticomadrid (Their high pressing is outrageous)

But with our depth (Eto + willian + schurrle + KDB + lukaku + MVG) adding to last season squad, we are equiped to go far this season.

[Miracle 249]

Want: Marseille or Schalke 04, FC Basel and Anderlecht or Austria Vienna.

Probably get: PSG, Borussia Dortmund and Napoli.

[BOSS 372]

I hope that we get Ajax so that i can see my Chelsea play in Amsterdam again

[puri 6]

Please dont let us bitch around like City Fans. From the teams we can draw we only need to be wary of Juve/Psg Dortmund and napoli. What are the odds?!

it would be nice to see drogba back at the bridge for the first time since munich though (as long as we win)

[TorontoChelsea 4,064]

Not too worried. I don't care much about pot 2 because 2 good teams go through anyway. The one thing would be to avoid Dortmund as the C team because that could cause real problems. Anyway, as an A seed, no excuses not to go through no matter what.
