Champions League 2024-25 (36 Viewers)

I still find it unfair that some teams have much more difficult draws than others when playing in a league format. Compare ours (very balanced) to Milan’s or Inters.

It happened in the group stages too, when there were groups of death and some piss easy groups. Until they decide to go for a superleague where everyone plays everyone, it's gonna remain unbalanced.
If this was the old format, our group could have been: City, Juve, Lille, Stuttgart. It also could have been Leipzig, Juve, PSV, Aston Villa. With the new format, we get a bit of both.
Some team will get very lucky with the draw, some very unlucky, but for most it will be a balanced draw.
The advantage with the new format is that you reduce the probability of being eliminated in December in a City, Juve, Lille, Stuttgart group due to one or two fuck-ups.

Inter were going to win yesterday because the English media were banging on about the time Arsenal beat them 5-1 in Italy, even spamming YouTube with that old match. You'd think that England would've learnt by now, but there you go.

The last group game is in January after the transfer window and in that time, some of these clubs could flip on form and injuries. It's too unpredictable right now.

I read the article too. It was billed as 'two teams at the peak of their powers' above the graphic - at the time Arsenal were bottom of their group with 4 points from 4 games, but it was their soon to be invincible team in the league. Whilst Inter started illuminaries such as Brechet, Lamouchi, van der Meyde and a smattering of other good but not so great players such as flop Cannnavaro and Cristiano Zanetti. This was peak meme era Inter before Farsopoli. It's mythology essentially because Arsenal have no CL history, and still don't to this day.

People tend to forget that Inter beat Arsenal 3 - 0 in the first game under Hector Cuper he was then fired and replaced by Zach and proceeded to lose 5 - 1. The loss was down to how terrible Zach rather than how great Arsenal were. In the same way how we lost to Fulham.

I agree with what he's saying about the format of the new CL though.

did it happen in the same season?

Yes, it was the CL group stage in 2004. Inter under Cuper beat Arsenal 3 - 0 at highbury. Cuper is sacked and is replaced by Zach (lol), they then go on to lose 5 - 1 and are eliminated in the group stage.

Halfway through the UCL league phase, who is overperforming and who is underperforming, according to the UEFA coefficients.

How about those lovely 32D BREST?

Losing to Stuttgart was unacceptable

Losing to Stuttgart was unacceptable

I expect a similar result against Villa next round.

Have Arsenal ever won the CL?
What are their fans proud of?!

Thank god this piece of shit didn't win Ballon D'or

This sport will always be a joke for as long as things like this aren't punished.

As was losing to Nurnberg 3-0 my Stevie bro.

Shit got real back then, but few here could see and admit it.

What a ridiculous penalty for Leverkusen. These refs really need to get a course in body mechanism on how the human body naturally moves.

Still more points than Jj…. Could we face an Italian team in the knockouts 9-24?
