August 25, 20213 yr Pot 2 looks the pot to be in this season - at least one of Chelsea/City are going to draw a big European team in their group this year.
August 25, 20213 yr Champions League winner predictions? for me with the signings that they've made if PSG don't win it then something is seriously wrong over there.
August 25, 20213 yr PSG and City will rightly be favourites, but neither have ever won it before and that definitely counts. City will never get as good as an opportunity to win as last season and it will be interesting to see how the no away goals rule changes things. Can you really see City/PSG needing to get a result at the Bernabau/Anfield/Allianz if they needed a win in the 2nd leg? I fancy Liverpool/Chelsea this season. Think it will be an English club or PSG that wins.
August 26, 20213 yr Pot 1: Chelsea Villarreal Bayern Munich Manchester City Atletico Madrid Inter Milan Sporting CP Lille Pot 2: Real Madrid Barcelona Juventus Manchester United PSG Liverpool Sevilla Borussia Dortmund Pot 3: FC Porto Ajax Shakhtar Donetsk Red Bull Leipzig Red Bull Salzburg Benfica Atalanta Zenit St Petersburg Pot 4: Beskita Dynamo Kiev Club Brugge Young Boys AC Milan Malmo Wolfsburg Sheriff Tiraspol
August 26, 20213 yr Pot 2 is definitely stronger than pot 1. How did Sporting and Lille make it there? :lol: , any of the teams in pot 4 would do well to qualify for the knockout stages.
August 26, 20213 yr I’ll take that draw for United. Avoided Bayern from pot 1, Milan from pot 4 and any long trips to Russia, Ukraine or Turkey. City in actual tough group shocker :o
August 26, 20213 yr Full Draw Group A: Manchester City PSG RB Leipzig Club Brugge Group B: Atletico Madrid Liverpool Porto AC Milan Group C: Sporting Lisbon Borussia Dortmund Ajax Besitkas Group D: Inter Milan Real Madrid Skakhtar Donetsk Sheriff Tiraspol Group E: Bayern Munich Barcelona Benfica Dynamo Kiev Group F: Villarreal Manchester United Atalanta BSC Young Boys Group G: Lille Sevilla RB Salzburg Wolfsburg Group H: Chelsea Juventus Zenit St. Petersburg Malmo
August 26, 20213 yr All the English teams should qualify, Liverpool's group looks the toughest on paper but I'd expect us to get through it. It doesn't leave us much wiggle room though if we have more than one defeat.
August 26, 20213 yr Author Glad to see everyone else getting involved in the discussion now the group stages have been drawn 😁 Yeh tough group for Liverpool as ever and as usual United get an easy draw. Maybe Ole can score another OG this year?! Group E looks a tough group as well. Well done to Sheriff Tiraspol being the first ever Moldovan team in the group stages, they normally start in the 1st or 2nd qualifying round. Decent achievement even if they are paid for by petrodollars!

August 27, 20213 yr Author Well maybe not last year and yes looking at ours last year it wasn’t too bad albeit you could hype any teams up such as Ajax etc. But Yous normally do get a handy group. Still should have qualified from it mind you!
September 14, 20213 yr Wrong Manchester Steve. City get the easy group Year in year out. Back on the proper side of Manchester i see we are determined to re-enact 2020. Soft red like and this ref is a complete eejit but that was a deserved loss. Shitshow second half. Gave up after the red card and tried to see out a 1-0 and got burned. Not good enough And I never want to see Jesse f***ing Lingard in a United kit again
September 14, 20213 yr I only saw the 2nd half but from what I've seen we didn't play well, it was a terrible mistake from Lingard and there were dodgy substitutions from Ole. I still remember David Wagner doing us dirty as Huddersfield manager a few years ago and now he's done it again.
September 14, 20213 yr Taking VDB off for Varane at half-time was the most pathetic substitution I've ever seen. That's when the game was lost, they would have won comfortably if they didn't decide to play with no midfield and literally leave a 36 year old up front by himself. If they continued with 4-4-1 I'm sure they would have won. United won't win anything if they don't even have the balls to try and attack against Young Boys even with 10 men.
September 14, 20213 yr Ah Ole how we love you!!! Can't wait to see the Man Utd PR machine in full flow now. I wonder if they will show Ronaldo talking to a young Jesse Lingard again? :lol: Probably spout some rubbish about how Ronaldo now won't be happy because they lost and he will have very strong words with the team :rofl: United will still qualify with ease, it is ok to drop points, but this has given me a great laugh. It's almost like signing Ronaldo solves absolutely zero of the bigger problems that exist with the manager and squad, who'd have thought :lol: Not seen the game but Ole did the right thing by playing for a 1-0 with 10 men, it's just the 10 men he had were not well coached and only set up to play one way. Compare that to how Tuchel played vs Liverpool a couple of weeks ago.
September 15, 20213 yr It's an unacceptable result but the red card really f***ed us. I'd have been happy to escape out of there with a point and the defence was largely brilliant. One slack backpass from Lingard shouldn't overshadow EVERYTHING but it is a really annoying outcome.
