Edgar, you posting this now reminded me that there are no Romanian clubs in the draw. You still have Steaua in CL, but this is quite a failure after last season. Greek teams on the other hand are performing fantastically and are the most pleasant surprise.
As for my Dinamo I'm pretty happy with the draw if I take into consideration that we were in pot 4.

Tough draws for Leverkusen and Nuremberg... Bayern has to advance, HSV should.
