Bluewolf 7,161 Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 Interesting group for us... Get it right and it's winnable but honestly not expecting too much for us in this competition this season.. Lampard has plenty of experience in this competition as a player but as a manager he has none, throw in our leaky defence as well and it might be painful watching at times, on the plus side though they look like they should all be open and attacking games so will be good to watch..

SirBalon 2,692 Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 Groups A, D and F are completely mental and extremely interesting. Chelsea's group is also very hard to call and a must watch. Everything else is mediocrity and no hard call on the first two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Real Madrid and PSG going through for sure. As for group D, Atletico got huge ambitions this season so I can't see an upset there, and Juventus... a side with Ronaldo in the CL has to go through. Group F, G and H definitely the most balanced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Group F, G and H definitely the most balanced. I may be wrong and this is all hypothetical by taking various details into account but Real Madrid are a total disaster and we have to ignore the first La Liga game of the season against Celta. I can't see them winning away to Galatasaray and with Brugge I can see a shock. I see Real in the same way as they were for 6 or 7 years after the "Galactico" era right now. Let's see on that one... With Atleti it's true that they're very optimistic for this season but they were exactly that last season and a poor spell before Christmas saw them end their hopes in everything. It's all about Simeone and not the tremendous quality they have in their squad because squad-wise they've been up there with the elite for quite some time. It would be great to see a kid lead them to glory and a club their size deserves to have won that cup. There are some real tough groups out there but most are predictable right now for me mate.

They got to play a spineless spur side that was lucky to get past Ajax. Several days of rest and I'm sure liverpool would of seen the Ajax version that dominated RM and out of 10 times ajax would win 9 given how much space taa gifts opponents and at that time, the Dutch team had a way more superior midfield. Also. I doubt I will ever see another Barcelona team give up such a big lead with messi once Valverde is gone. Long gone the days were liverpool didnt just won but with class as well. That cheap ass and poor sportsmanship goal by TAA can only come from a klopp led team.. as much as I'm a fan of Mayweather, I hated the way he KO Sergio(?) when he wasnt looking... yeah you have to protect yourself at all times and no rule was broken but that showed poor class and disrespect for the sport itself. Barcelona bend over themselves and a poor sportsmanship goal by the "defender" and klopp is consider a great ... a great coach is dethroning a way better barcelona team with your own tactics like Mourinho did, not by Valverde being a coward So, just to confirm, you’ve first gone from ‘Liverpool had it easy last season’ yet conveniently forgetting they had to get past the German, French, and Spanish champions en route to the final, to now they were lucky they didn’t face Ajax in the final? Also, just to confirm, you put down Liverpool for beating a poor Barca side, yet praise Ajax for beating a poor Real Madrid side? Did I get this right?

Think you're heavily underestimating Real mate. Yeah they're not what they once were in terms of their strengths but they're not as bad as to expect a potential shock in Brugge. I don't know what Galatasaray are like these days so can't comment on that one. It's quite obvious to me though that Real and PSG ease through the group.

God is Haaland 618 Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 Inter have invested €365mio in new players this summer, for example: Alexis Sanchez and Lukaku. I was surprised that we didn't get Lukaku when the deal was announced. The fact that we have to face him now, annoys me even more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True Blue 971 Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 I like the group, it looks easy but it isn't at all. Very let's say equal? They young guns can play with these teams and i expect us to qualify. Hope we can top the group and avoid a difficult game in the last 16. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
