It really isn't, I don't know why people keep saying this. Ramos and all of Barcelona still exist.
I was joking of course..
I believe it was coincidence that the refs missed Ronaldo`s goals vs Bayern..
Considering our style of play vs Barca`s style of play its obviously bad news for us as we are more tactically sound where as Barca are more about attack attack and when you have nothing to do attack even more which means they are more likely to spend their time in the opponent`s area which means more places for referees to make mistakes..
We are more tactically sound which means we are more likely to create less despite Cristiano and spend less time in the opponent`s area..
I was talking about situations that VAR could make a difference and didnt imply Barca are better as overall yes Barca will probably score more but we are less likely to be surprised at the back..
I think the two favorites are Juve and Barca - and while I believe we can have something more as we now have Bonucci to reinstate the BBC we also have other quality players since we last had BBC..
D.Costa is simply amazing and C.Ronaldo effect will surely be felt
I dont believe in jinxing so yes I think that this is our year but as there are so many teams that can win it - it means it will be tough to do it even if you are the best..

Who are the teams you would like to avoid from each pot (pick only 1 from each)
I`d like to avoid Tottenham since they are probably the best 2nd pot team ,Liverpool obviously the best 3rd pot team and Galatasaray because of bad memories..

NO. We burn their stadium down after winning 4-0. Vengeance is necessary.

It would be interesting to get Man Utd as we havent met them for ages.. I wouldnt want it to happen though as I rather see us face teams who we know how they play rather than teams that will probably change their coach and their whole style is a mystery...

If we manage to get Ronaldo and Dybala up and running together then it won't even matter who we draw, despite our midfield.

There’s a very good chance you get an English team - Spurs, Utd or Liverpool - given the amount of Italian sides also placed throughout the pots.

I’d expect Juve to qualify whoever they draw.
