Champions League draw

[Grehnhewe]

This a test, this only a test to see if there are any soccer fans/haters on enworld.

So Arsenal draws Munich and Man City draws Barca.

Chelsea draws Galatasaray, Drogba will receive a warm welcome at Stamford Bridge!

Easy draw for Man U by comparison. Gives them some time to get their act together.

And if they can't improve in the prem, they can concentrate on Champions, I bet at least two English teams will be knocked out.

 

[Ahnehnois]

Surely they can improve. They have largely the same team that won the league last year, and a highly respected manager. Some growing pains were not unexpected, but there's every reason to believe they'll get better eventually. The more the table leaders flounder around, the more time they have to at least get back to respectability. Same for their CL draw. It gives them time to get their heads in the right place and acquire one or two significant players to fill out the squad. Which might or might not pan out, but that's why we watch.

At the moment, they are pretty awful.

 

[Grehnhewe]

Yeah still lots of time in the prem, never discount United. I think Liverpool with no CL games is in the house!

Ha ha! Tottenham sacked Villa Boas today.

Go Blues.

It looks to me that most of the clubs that finished their group 1st gonna make it. Only the Man City - Barca and the Milan - Madrid Match I cannot really say.

The Milan one cause I haven't seen much of their matches and Barca will need Messi being Messi back or City to go back to their CL form in past seasons.

Arsenal vs. Munic may be interesting. Arsenal's strength surely didn't deteriorate with Mesut Özil's addition.

One can only hope that none of the numerous players of the German National Team in this match gets hurt.

Heh, I saw a soccer thread with the word 'draw' in the title and immediately assumed it was talking about the final score.

Problem is that last year was probably something of an aberration - they didn't really win the league because they were best, but rather because they were the least worst. And I wouldn't be entirely shocked to see Moyes out before too much longer - the cost of missing out on the Champions League next year is too high to contemplate, and so football at that level is just insane.

As for the draw... I have no idea.
