UEFA Champions League Group Stage draw

[Aria 19]

Hopfully we'll get decent refs as well this year..with our luck though

Are you kidding? We will never get decent referees

We gotta fight our way through a storm full of enemies, including not only our opponnents, but also UEFA and their referees.

this group could have been a lot worse...

I'll be hoping to get tickets to either MSK Zilina or Marseille

oh and by the way, 4-0 was the scoreline at Stamford Bridge when we last played a French team... Bordeaux, and I went to that

4-0 was also the scoreline I went to a CL match last time, Atletico

Looks an interesting group, never heard of MŠK Žilina. I would think Marseille could be a tricky game. Just looking forward to evening games at the bridge, good atmosphere. Hope we get ref's that are fair and not short sighted. A lot to ask I know

[- 25 - 167]

Nope we were there for the railways cup in 2008 couple of months after.

Marseille will be interesting, Drogba is a god there.

Hopefully try make it to the home game.

Oh yeah, completely forgot about that. Hope Didier turns it on against the French.

Žilina and Spartak should be easy games, but they'll really be up for it. If anyone thinks Marseille will be a walkover, I'll be here laughing.

Dont think an away tie to any Russian team is an easy game tbh.

Champs League draw.... Interesting! Interesting to see Drogba to play against his former club Marseille. Should get an ovation.

I'm with you, away matches in Slovakia and Russia are harder then at the Velodrome. Think about the weather, the pitch, the crazy fans.

Pretty hard journeys tbh, but 9 points at home and we win the group.

Think you're right, reckon we'll win at least one of our away games aswell. Can't wait for the 15th!

Let's hope so. As I said 3 wins and 3 draws should be enough to win this group, can't really see us win at Luzhniki and in Zilina without Drogba.

We better win in Zilina, I've been to 4 European away games and we've never won! I'm hoping this will be the first.

[Aesthetic Relic 301]

Delighted with the draw. It could have been a hell of alot worse.

[EskWeston 696]

I think we can be very pleased with this draw, couldn't have asked for a much better one really and will our campaign in the CL that much easier.

[magic weeds 446]

so how many games is Didier going to miss?? I think he will be missing the marseille home game too due to that Platini ban.

nice draw anyway except the fact that we playin in Moscow.

Two matches, Zilina away and Marseille home.

Good group. However, I have some "fear" of the game agains Spartak in Russian.
