To be fair it is definitely one of the better teams compared to other pot 4 teams
We reached CL finals.

Our group looks rather easy. Barca is tricky but we can surely beat them too. They are far from their best level and they even lost Neymar.

We can be first without much sweat imo. Sporting and Greeks are easy points. If we screw it then it's only us to be blamed.

What a joke of a draw. Fucking union get away with easy teams. It's a pretty tough group for us.

I have mixed feelings about the draw. We are definitely goid enough to top this group just have no room for the usual slacking off and drawing inferior teams we love to do in the group stages. No room for error this time cause you can be sure barca wont drop a point against olympiakos or sporting. We can beat them but they steam roll little teams

based on the fact we have no outlet at the back with bonucci gone leaving Pjanic as the player having to drop deep to receive the ball, put a man marker on him and thats nullified. We look completely lost playing from the back with pressure on the defence, again the barca and spurs friendly matches highlights this issue. We did ok against cagliari as they didnt mark pjanic so it was easy in that instance but better managers will figure this out
Stop using facking friendlies for reference FFS

The groups are ridiculous, either 2-3 strong or very strong teams or no really strong teams. Basically it doesnnt matter if you finish first or second, finishing first you cann sstill get the likes of Barca, PSG or Chelsea

Meh maybe this isnt so bad. In the past weve done poorly with very easy draws maybe a tough one will be proper motivation
We got a an easy draw.


A tough draw would been Tottenham /Liverpool and Leipzig. Not this we got, 1 top team and two alright average teams.
