2nd? We can get top spot!
Champions League Draw | Group A: FC Harry Kane, United, Copenhagen, Galatasaray
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
Probably almost impossible.
make friends with Copenhagen supporters and sit with the home fans and be quiet.
wouldnt mind Milan and Newcastle getting through that group, would be another season wasted for Mbappe
Decent draw, happy to have avoided Spanish opposition. The United-Bayern games are going to be great.
Lots of fun matches. Braga is one of those teams that can steal points from Real or Napoli but they’ve also struggled against Union in the recent past.
Can’t wait for Porto vs Barcelona and might have to grab me some tickets.
I put money on Milan to win the Champions League but that group has me worried

When will the fixtures be released?
Yes. And they got payback for that first draw which they did not deserve.

Remember when Evra scored that screamer in Munich? That was a good 60 seconds.
Beat Galatasaray and Copenhagen away and I’d like to think that we’re home and dry. Bayern will be an amazing test - I genuinely think that they were as good as City when they met last season, at least for large parts of the tie. With Kim and Kane, I think they’re the best team in the world now. We’ll probably lose in Bavaria (hopefully not), but we can beat them in front of a packed OT under the lights.
Quality matches. Anyone could qualify from group D & F
We're going back to hell!
I think Bayern is probably a bit early for us, but we beat and drew Barca six months ago, so we certainly have a fair chance. København (0-0, 1-0) and Galatasaray (0-0, 3-3) are classic banana skins for us according to my memories, but we certainly have a good opportunity for going through.
would think Utd will lose a couple of the away games but beat Bayern at home
where and who do we play on Matchday 1: September 19-20 ?
Best 60 seconds of the entire season.
City with an easy group again, what a surprise.
Just stand on a table in a bar and sing 'Wonderful Copenhagen'. That should endear you.
They want us to get top 4 to play EL teams
Your guess for reality wasn't too far off... kudos!

I'm stoked, it's the perfect group. 2 smaller teams but not shit-tier that makes for boring matches, and United. I've been waiting for another tie against United for such a long time, they are always exciting and memorable.
Easy 18 points
Will take that group. It’s not an easy group per se (we’re in the UCL, it’s not meant to be easy), but we’ve got two teams who we’ve got a great chance of getting the better of over two games and then Bayern who is a great test.
I don’t like this draw. Bayern and Gala will be tough games, and there is every chance we underestimate Copenhagen.
Sods Law we would draw Munich after losing out on Kane to them.

I’m trying to talk my colleague into it, go to hell for a footy match and come back with a hair transplant
If we can't go through here, we don't really deserve to go through
very hyped for the Bayern matches though!Not a bad shout, I need a new set of teeth!I’m trying to talk my colleague into it, go to hell for a footy match and come back with a hair transplant
I’ll add that to the list too, need a crown
Bayern are a shadow of themselves these days, it's Kane i'm worried about.
It’s ridiculous. Can’t remember the last time they had a belter of a hard draw, whether it’s groups or knockouts both domestically or European
It doesn’t really matter though they’d still get to the stage where they’d get someone tricky no matter what their group or R16 draw is, but it’s a bit sus at this point!
Am thinking this is the way as well, I don't care where I sit if I can just see it at the stadium (though obviously it would be ideal not to be in the hardcore FCK zone)
Could always be worse people. The Geordies have a group of death, and a local “rapper” just released this, to celebrate their achievement
They may be a shadow of themselves, but themselves were so good that those shadows are quite enough to give respect. Besides they have a lot of relevant CL experience in their set up now compared to us, counts for quite a bit.
Has a football feeling ever went from pure joy to complete sadness as quick as that
And the format changed in 2000 just like it's doing next year. I'm not saying we are going to win it, but......
What the feck is this City group? Their luck in these draws are insane.
Newcastle group will be a great experience for them considering that it's their first time playing at such level. They might not get through sure but I think they will benefit from this than playing shit teams.
Our group shouldn't be that hard to be honest. Two big teams and two teams who are supposed to be fodders. Just get 10 points at least from the the other two teams and we will go through regardless of Bayern games.

Good that Beheadcastle Utd aren't going to make it to Europa League either. And Atletico the cnuts will win their group too! Excellent.
Utd with 50/50 chance of seeing Thursday nights again after December.

Probably ended up with the hardest options from Pot A and C we could have asked for. Going to be tricky but, injuries permitting, we should be ok.
