    Dortmund should rightly be seen as favourites for this group. They won two consecutive Bundesliga titles and their performances in the CL were outstanding last year. I'm not sure the current Napoli team is as dangerous as the one headed by Cavani and Lavezzi a few years ago. They have loads of new players to bed into their team, although Rafa has a good record in setting up his teams in Europe. But he still has other Rafa quirks which could be beneficial for us. Obviously getting six points from Marseille is essential.

    Unless the squad's completely decimated (which it almost already is tbf) I see us getting second place, especially if we can pub some good results against Dortmund again.

    Should be fun.

    Quite happy with a tougher draw. We're not going to win the thing anyway so we might as well have some fun while it lasts.

    Trouble is now I'm tempted to go to some of the games and I don't really want to line the board and Wenger's pockets any more

    Draw was probably fixed by Wenger and the board for that reason so fans would want to come and give them more money.

    Napoli away is a pig of a fixture if we need a result to qualify.

    Looking forward to it though.

    Decent draw, qualifying is likely assuming lucky with injures (lol).

    Will be good to see us play against proper teams rather than the usual filth.

    Good fixture draw

    We get off the mark away to Marseille so by the end of matchday three we have a good chance of only having lost twice.

    Scrape a draw in Dortmund, Win at Home to Marseille (close run thing) and then the game at Napoli is all to play for.
