Off Topic European Football

I personally think Croatia vs Greece will be the most one sided game tbh. Italy should beat Sweden comfortably as well.

Both the Ireland games are going to be the closest imo.

Ideal draw would be Lokomotiv Moscow Benfica Liverpool and AEK Athens.

Worst possible would be Barcelona Dortmund us and Inter

Russia is a crap trip though, but maybe it's worth it for easier opposition though lol. 

I wouldn't be shocked to see Real, Roma, LFC and Hoffenheim after last season haha. Yikes, I didn't even register that's Inter in pot 4 :o.

By the teams involved this will be a excellent group campaign to watch, I obviously wanted a easier time of it but we're built for European nights as last season showed. They'll be as scared of us as we are of them for sure!

Not a good draw for all Uk teams really, Not liking Group C 😳

[Nucleus]

Group B though! 😳

[samhardy]

What an absolute fucking stunner Group D is. Can't wait for that one.

[PilgrimAsh]

They are all Pretty tough groups and some big boys could or should I say will be going out early doors 

[Dave994]

Since I'm a Valencia fan, I hope they beat Man United. The best French midfielder will be playing.

Kondogbia.😝

Sorry to bump this @samhardybut this chat needs to be revived.

Welcome to the European Football chat. Talk about anything here in other countries whether it’s 4 English Teams in the quarters (🍻) or Real losing 4-1 to Ajax.

In what way? Only one of the four ties is competitive and even that's pushing it.

Because if all goes to plan we'll be spanking Coutinho or United as we head to Madrid to take the double from City.

You'd already won the CL at this stage last year if I recall correctly as well

Thankfully our shithousery has improved this season. 

Tbf I hoped to avoid an English side or Juve which we did and hopefully done until the potential final so I'm happy. 

[Gunners Rishi]

I’m just scared that we’ve drawn Napoli...

[samhardy]

Wtf went on here

[Ashez]

Read bottom up

While I'm hear, what a heart breaking collapse from Dortmund 

[Ashez]

What a night! We take a positive yet dangerous lead to Portugal while City have work to do, simply lovely!

Keeping a clean sheet is massive for you so one goal over there and the tie is pretty much over.
