Barcelona never looked this bad so early in the season. Despite having 7 pts in a tough group, they were all over the place in all 3 matches. I've never seen them under so much pressure like tonight in Prague. Slavia have a nice team that plays sexy football, tho, and that result against Inter wasn't a fluke.
Anyway, after a long long time, I won't put the Spanish giants among the CL favorites.

Napoli were not good tonight. People here complain about us being careless with possession when in front, but Napoli took that to a whole new level. They are going to get spanked sooner or later. And Mertens is such a little cunt, that midget is almost unbearable to watch.

It's still early, but based on what we've seen thus far this season I agree.

City, Pool, PSG and Juve the favorites for me at the moment. Wouldn't bet against there being some surprise teams that do well this season just like last year.

I agree although I'd put PSG there only for the players they have considering there are still question marks on their mental block they have in this competition.

City, Liverpool, Juve and Bayern, with an outside chance

Each seaon it's the same optimism wise, but I really think we have all the cards in our hands to make a breakthrough this time. Provided we continue to adapt progressively to the new style of play.

I'm personally not super confident on how'd we do against Pool and City. Think either of them could be a bad fit for us.

Yep they both have style of plays that could cause problems. By then if we tighten up the defence and score when it matters we might have our say. That'd be great encounters, I'd look forward to them honestly.
