Champions League Group Stage Draw 16:45 Thursday 29/08

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Hamsik pisses on any of our midfielders.

Reina is better than all of our keepers.

No not really.

Santi shits on Hamsik and Reina has been poor for the past few seasons. There is a reason why Liverpool got rid of him.

Hamsik pisses on any of our midfielders.

Reina is better than all of our keepers.

Plus all three of our opponents has a manager that understands at least the basics of football. They could use tactics and all sorts of shit against us, it's worrying.

Reina hasn't kept a clean sheet against us in god knows how long.

[Marc Overmars]

When are the fixtures out?

Hoping for Dortmund away first like we had 2 years ago.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Should be within the next 20 minutes. Doesn't take too long generally.

[Herbert_Chapman's_Zombie]

Should be within the next 20 minutes. Doesn't take too long generally.

We want the fixtures we are most likely to lose out of the way first

Dortmund and Napoli at Home

[Ollie the Optimist]

Come off it Ollie, they were CL finalists last year and destroyed Real Madrid.

Better players and better manager. All there is to it.

I'm not one of the eternal pessimists on here but it'd be a complete upset if we finish above them. I do think Napoli are perfectly doable though ... Higuain aside they don't seem to be that good.

and we beat bayern 2-0 (only team to win at bayern all season) . they lost to bayern every time last year i think. im not saying they are a bad team, but two years ago they were a good team, but have sold a lot of their best players. kagawa, goetze for example. on our day, we are a very good team and can beat the best. no reason why we cant beat dortmund or the others.

Different circumstance...Bayern had effectively already won the tie by the time we played them in Munich and didn't know how to approach the game. Plus the away games won't be a problem, i fancy us to get draws in Napoli and Dortmund. It will be at home where Wenger is blind to our midfield deficiencies where we will be slaughtered on the counter attack.

[Niall_Quinn]

Lots of good chat here, but we're losing sight of the main reasons for being in this tournament. Anyone any idea how much cash we (by we I mean they) will claw in?

the argument that bayern had already won so didnt know how to play is rubbish imo. htey went barca 4-0 up and won 3-0. we were just better then them that game and came close to winning overall.
