Subscriber Dan+ Posted August 24, 2021 Subscriber Posted August 24, 2021 That is surely the weakest pot 1 ever.
Redcanuck Posted August 26, 2021 Posted August 26, 2021 United draw Villarreal, chance for some revenge, though the last 5 meetings have been draws , 4 of them 0-0.

Rick Posted August 26, 2021 Posted August 26, 2021 I’m genuinely fed up of Atletico Madrid. I get to forget about how much I dislike them through the year, but then we get drawn with them in Europe and it all flares up again.
Subscriber Coma+ Posted August 26, 2021 Subscriber Posted August 26, 2021 Besiktas, Sporting, Ajax....Dortmund. I'll take that.
DeadLinesman Posted August 26, 2021 Posted August 26, 2021 Another boring, on paper easy group for us that we’ll somehow struggle out of. Yawn.

Eco Posted August 26, 2021 Posted August 26, 2021 1 minute ago, Tommy said: RIP Leipzig. Yes. 3 pricks in one group. Too bad a team like RB Salzburg couldn't have joined that group.
Subscriber Coma+ Posted August 26, 2021 Subscriber Posted August 26, 2021 Did anyone else see that the Portuguese league bumped Ligue 1 as the 5th most competitive league? I swore I read that yesterday. Will affect future CL spots for French teams. Edit - nevermind, I think it went into effect for this draw
Subscriber Dan+ Posted August 26, 2021 Subscriber Posted August 26, 2021 Man City v PSG is a total fix.
Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted August 26, 2021 Subscriber Posted August 26, 2021 Groups A, D, E and H pretty much foregone conclusions yet we won't hear anything about the 6 games it takes to get to an inevitable result causing unnecessary fixture congestion. That Wednesday night trip to Cardiff in the 4th round of the League Cup for Chelsea or Man Utd will prove to be totally beyond the pail though and prompt another debate on whether we should scrap one of the domestic cups altogether. Zzzzz.
Subscriber Viva la FCB+ Posted August 26, 2021 Subscriber Posted August 26, 2021 I am curious to see this Barca team in action somewhat but pretty uneventful draw otherwise. That group A is hilarious though.

(If it remains all of this season) But it'll only affect Europa League / Conference League really. Fifth gets 2 Europa and 1 Conference. Sixth gets 1 Europa and 2 Conference.

We’re all fed up of it, most boring tie of the lot feel like its been going on for years but probably hasn’t just feels like it.

I can only recall us being drawn against them 3 times and two of those were in 08/09 and 09/10.
Smiley Culture Posted August 26, 2021 Posted August 26, 2021 United’s group is fantastic, some good sides in there. Also, 16 teams coming from 4 countries is shit.

Suppose it’s more of an Athletico thing than Liverpool, Simeone’s style, a yawn came out naturally when they announced it just now.
