Thankfully we didn't. We can pass 1st of 2nd. Depends what City shows up, Sevilla is tough as well but we are better. I don't get these rules, why could we only get Sevilla. Why couldnt we get Genk or Dinamo. Ridiculous.
Because they try to keep teams from the same countries in different halves of the draw for TV.

Since Barca and Valencia were already drawn in one half, Sevilla had to go in the other so that there would be two Spanish teams on each night.

Same that Gladbach and Wolfsburg had to be in Juve's half of the draw because Bayern and Leverkusen were already drawn in the other half.

TV money put ahead of sporting intergrity and a more random draw.

The only good thing about having a group like ours is that almost anyone can take points off each other, which is good and bad, we just need to make sure we get points from our games. We need to finish top and start well.

You are wrong. When Sevilla was drawn boths halves had 2 Spanish team. Real and Atletico in one, Barca and Valencia in another.

Yep.

A Juventus at top level can beat all those teams though, if we cant beat Seville and the German side, then we don't deserve the CL.
This. We'll get through this group, EuroMaXX brought the confidence back to Juventus in Continental games, plus we've got some new players who will be hungry for success. Difficult group but to be honest I'm just excited to start watching the Champions League again.

Fucking rigged. It's amazing how easy a group Manchester United got. And Manchester City, the black sheep of England that always gets a hard group is in a hard group with us.

We should be the favorites of our group but it will be difficult, we have to start strong and win our home matches
