There is enough sweat in our tank, spirit in our belief, quality in our technique and remarkableness in our consistency to progress.
But do not forget we have also a 103.5% chance of resting our special quality players against Olympiacos, coming little bit short of first place in the group and becoming embroiled in the dead/alive zone in the last 16 against a team which travels with 94.23% petrol.
Little bit good post.
I can see us playing Montpellier, Giroud missing 5 sitters and them snatching the win 1-0 late on :lol:
Didnt they just beat Barca?Quote:

Predictions to go through?
Group A - PSG and Porto
B - Arsenal and Schalke
C - Milan and Zenit
D - Real Madrid and Dortmund
E - Juventus and Chelsea
F - Bayern and Valencia
G - Spanish FA UEFA FIFA Refs and Benfica
H - Mancs and Galatasaray
Cos we are by far the weakest team in Pot 1Quote:

Yep, sometimes we Arsenal it up and let it go to the last game of the group but none the less go through.Quote:

Our record suggests we'll get out of the group so if we're in their group that effectively means there's only one place left.
It's more apt to say we'd be one of the favoured draws in the knockouts, seeing as our record is awful considering how long we've been competing in this competition.
You are both wrong because in your desire to be miserable, or in Ach's case wum, neither of you have thought it through.Quote:

Drawing us in the knock out stage is a separate matter altogether.

I really don't give a shit what other teams think.
It's a great draw for us, and we should top the group.
If I was a manager getting us out of Pot 1 would be a great draw, the other teams have better players and are on the whole stronger teams, thus the possibility of picking up points against us is greater. In addition 2 teams qualify from the groups and we have a number of times come 2nd.Quote:

You'd have to be delusional to think that we're not one of the better draws seeing the other teams in Pot 1 tbh.
We have a better record of emerging from the Group stages than just about every team you mentioned.Quote:

Very little in the way of a point to be made here. Self-loathing isn't healthy.
