PSG need to pick up another defender in the winter if they want to win the CL.

They're really nothing special. I'd much rather we face them than any of the Spanish teams.
They'll be far more difficult than Sevilla with most of their injured players back.

Other than Barca are there any third place finishers that we should really be keen to avoid in the Europa League?

Hats off too Benfica.

They have been brilliant in the CL. Playing like a top team.

I hate it.

Also Nuno Mendes is the most exciting young left back in the world

Looks like Liverpool are heading to Portugal. PSG are getting knocked out next round.

Deserved 1st place for Benfica, our game against Juventus B team showed we didn't deserve the top spot.

PSG deserve it for just completely giving up after the second goal. And all the chances they missed the last match.

Benfica were by far the best team in the group. It’s more then deserved.

As I said PSG dont impress me. Unless Mbappe or Neymar have the game of their lives they will get bounced by the first top team in the knockouts.

Randomness but in the Milan game they panned to the crowd and they had a flag of Daniel Day Lewis as his Gangs of New York character on the Milan colours. what's that about?!

Their attack is still good enough to score vs anyone but they just cannot keep a clean sheet and look shaky vs pretty much anyone. I think they had zero clean sheets in their CL group. That's just not good enough.

Benfica have a super realistic chance of getting to the quarter final

7 outfield changes for Chelsea but Chilwell was not one of them and does his hammy. Both first choice full backs out, again.
Chilwell didn't start against Brighton last weekend though. Came off the bench with 25 mins to go.

That group of Milan ultras is called Nativi Milano. In Gangs of New York Daniel Day Lewis aka The Butcher is the captain of Natives..

You just know them or Porto will get Liverpool though.
I would put money that Benfica will get Frankfurt or Brugge and steam roll them both.

Porto Will get Liverpool.
