Back at the Big Boy Table: A Champions League Thread

Monaco, Barca, Celtic.

 

So we could have Chelsea, Man United and Celtic.
It would definitely cut down the travel times.

We could also end up playing just in Portugal - Benfica, FC Porto, Sporting CP
or Germany - Bayern, Borussia Dortmund, RB Leipzig

For me I think Benfica, Barcelona and Celtic would do nicely.

 

I think nobody in any of those pots will fancy facing anyone in the other pots.

 

I forgot that no team can play a club from their own association

 

we can't get a Prem team, but could get Celtic.

 

while we're waiting fr the CL draw, the EFL draw happened and we got the toughest draw of the big teams. what a surprise:

Third round draw
West Bromwich Albion v Manchester City
Everton v Sunderland
Leicester City v Liverpool
Manchester United v Burton Albion
Brentford v Norwich City
Wolverhampton Wanderers v Bristol Rovers
Burnley v Leeds
Arsenal v Doncaster Rovers
Bristol City v Stoke City
Reading v Swansea City
Aston Villa v Middlesbrough
Chelsea v Nottingham Forest
West Ham United v Bolton Wanderers
Crystal Palace v Huddersfield Town
Tottenham Hotspur v Barnsley/Derby County
Bournemouth v Brighton and Hove Albion

 

Really hope we don't get too far in this comp. Don't need the extra 2 games in January.

 

Call me crazy, but I'm fancying a Bayern/Barca group of depth. We have enough to get something from both of them and would be good to put one of them out of the comp early, preferably Barca.

 

I'll never hope we lose but I'll definitely hope Klopp plays the kids.

 

that's exactly what he should (will?) do.

 

He may be forced to play some of the yoots. ...then again all managers want to win the 1st trinket

 

LFC have sent to Monaco Danny Stanway (club's secretary) and Ian Rush, who cant negotiate anything. They insisit they not selling Coutinho

We could conceivably have been in Pot 4 .... Pot 3 was as high as we could hope for, Speke.

I's like Benfica, Feynoord, Celtic ..... thnx!

But I'll take anything not involving Bayern.

Worst Case Scenario would be
Real/PSG/Leipzig I think

 

I'm not hoping we lose, I'm hoping we play 7 or 8 kids and win!

 

ok- I'm calling you crazy, since you asked!

 

Sevilla and moscow

Group E

 

I'll bet we'll get Group B which already contains Bayern and PSG!

Oops! My feed Is a couple of minutes behind!

 

Between the 2 options we had, I'll take it.

 

one shit away trip, one great one.

Selliva scare me a bit, but we owe them one. Spartak is crap right now.

 

Manchester teams have been lucky Spurs and Chelsea have some hard games coming
