I think we would want Lokomotivs group
-
In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran hold a long overdue conversation about United's awful league form with 1 win in 7. They discuss a disappointing draw at Bournemouth, a not so disappointing draw against Liverpool and a crushing defeat at Chelsea - Is time nearly over for Erik Ten Hag?
Then in a special second half of the pod, Nik welcomes Natalie ( https://twitter.com/natalie_17) to discuss the fortunes of Manchester United Women as they booked a place in the FA Cup Final after a historic first ever win vs. Chelsea.
I got
Juventus
Man Utd
PSV
Plzen
two matches v Ronnie and two matches for Shaw to run all over PSV.

Fun game that, we ended up with Juventus, Valencia and Plzen.
Liverpool lost LC final, we won it the following year.

Why did I think this was tomorrow, it doesn't feel like Thursday today.
The scousers will get Lokomotiv Moscow and probably one of Dortmund/Roma, somehow bagging themselves a very winnable group despite being in the 3rd pot.
I got :
Juventus
Man United
Valencia
Plzeň
I think Valencia is really tricky for us , we suck against Spanish teams.

I'd take Real Madrid, better chance of beating them than with Ronnie and it's a glamour tie.
if we get PSG or Barca I can see a 4 or 5-0 loss on the cards.

My hope:
Bayern
United
Ajax
Inter
Classic games.
Bayern is going to win the group. And (yes, i support Ajax but i really believe this) the rest can fight for the remaining spot(s).

We'll probably end up with Moskow and two other not that good but quite rubbish enough to actually be rubbish teams like we always do.
Got Bayern, United, Ajax and Red Star in the simulator. Would be happy with that overall, though would probably prefer someone other than Bayern as I went there for the friendly earlier this month.
That'd be great tbh.
Really do not want Bayern. We have a terrible record against them at the best of times.
Would rather a draw with all big games tbh. We aren't winning the CL or coming close, last season we basically played Europa league calibar opponents and still got knocked out. At least let's have some big games.
We haven’t faced the elite of Europe since Moyes.
I’d be happy enough to get one of the big boys. Will make for an exciting occasion.

I hope we get a decent group this time. Though I wouldn't want a group of death.
I'd fancy something along the lines of:
Barcelona
Shakhtar
Liverpool
Brugge
This year the Pot 1 is so dangerous though. I think all of the english clubs will be satisfied finishing 2nd in the group. Except someone gets Lokomotiv, of course. I find it extremely funny seeing us in Pot 3 and those guys in Pot 1.

I’d like to get red star, something nostalgic about them
In the simulator I got:
Real Madrid
United
Monaco
Inter Milan
I'm certain we will get a very tough group. It's almost impossible to avoid a big team from pot 1 unlike last year and even pot 3 has some tough teams like Monaco, Lyon, Ajax and Valencia.

Moscow United Ajax Athens would be great.
Other wise
Munich United Monaco Inter is great.
Would rather avoid every Spanish club.

Group B
Lokomotiv
Benfica
Liverpool
Club Brugge
Group D
Barcelona
Man United
Lyon
Galatasaray
Group F
Paris
Tottenham
Valencia
Young Boys
Group G
Man City
Dortmund
PSV
Plzeň
I'm pretty sure I don't like this simulator, maybe I should look at the "draw" and calculate, not just click until the end of it.

Plzen I would actually be able to travel to by car which is tempting. Shame Salzburg bottled again because they’d make an excellent away visit from Kraków.
I want big side to face us tbh, feels as if we haven't played one in ages. Juventus would be fun with them having Ronaldo.
Did the simulator and we got a bitch ass draw. Think we had Juve and then two nonsense teams.
Hoping to avoid Ajax in pot 3. Seeking for revanche and a lot stronger than two years a go.
Got real madrid United Schalke aek
I know we are not doing that great atm but very excited to see us play in CL. Hopefully we can see us play one big team. It's been long since we played a major European team.

Juventus would be tasty. Pogba vs Ronaldo

What time is the actual draw? Usually things like this drag on and takes ages to get to the actual draw
Hmm, got Bayern, United, Valencia and Plzen on the simulator. I'd have that, decent chances of progression and interesting games against Bayern.
We haven't played a big team in Europe for over 4 years. Since Moyes season.
Mine:
Watching the draw in Spanish since TNT is only streaming it on their site.
Seems like a lot of people are getting us drawn with Juve.
I got Madrid, United, Lyon and Inter. Hope that's not the real one..
Liverpool will get Lokomotiv, or one of the weakest team in seeding group 2.
We will get one of the Russian teams.
