Youse have an easy group as it goes

[Jayze]

Yes, we had one last year as well.

[Dec]

Group D looks tasty as hell so will be interesting. Arsenal may also struggle but I think apart from Juventus we have a nice draw, just need to get something out of the trip to Ukraine.

[anfieldsquirrel]

Yes, we had one last year as well.

Yeah you were unlucky last year... I'm sure Fergie will sort it out

[Chelsea8]

Yes, we had one last year as well.

But you a meal of it.

[Jayze]

Chelsea fans am I the only one who seems to think you play Shaktar every year? We didn't get Benfica for the first time in donks. If City get through I will be amazed.

[anfieldsquirrel]

Celtic to play Barca... That's huge for Scottish footy. They could well get something at Parkhead. Believe me I've been in the away end (For Killie game) at Celtic and its bloody intimidating

Exactly. That's my point!

Slight difference between Killie and Barca.

I wasn't talking about the team they were playing. I was saying how intimidating the crowd were. They have had big results against teams. I think they beat Man United a few years back and Liverpool

[Jayze]

Yeh they beat us. I agree with you, but Barca are too good.

[Dec]

Jay, we've never played Shaktar before.

[Jayze]

Really? :lol:

[anfieldsquirrel]

Yes. There in it every year! :lol:

I meant Chelsea vs Shakhtar they haven't ever played in Europe

[Chelsea8]

Nope, never.

[Ashez]

[Franco]

[anfieldsquirrel]

Liverpool have got to Be in pot 1 for EL surely?

[DanLUFC]

Manchester United fan's wont be singing Istanbul any more, there group is the REAL group of death.

[Ashez]

That was one strange LFC game lol, wtf was Reina doing .

At least we are through, but god how many times has Suarez hit the post in our shirt now .

[Chelsea8]

Liverpool weren't great, I'll say that .

[Ashez]

Haha, we just didn't look interested as if they thought the game was already won.

[ImABlueToo]

Group D (Man City's) and Group G (Celtic's group) are the hardest as everyone is at the same level. Each other group has at least one team who is not very good so all the other teams have a good time of it.

[Ollie]

If only juventus were picked in Group D then the top 4 leagues in Europe would have had the league winning teams in one group :lol:
