Of course, as it happens nearly every year, Real coincidentally gets the opponent that is the weakest on paper.
United drops out in round of 16, then.
Atlético might just be the worst opponent for Juve.
Liverpool vs Bayern looks very exciting.

Atlético might just be the worst opponent for Juve. Liverpool vs Bayern looks very exciting. Hmmm...I think Real will have a tough time against a much improved Ajax side. They’ll probably go through but it won’t as easy as seasons gone by. I hope Dortmund destroy Spurs. Liverpool will fancy their chances against a Bayern side who aren’t having the best of times right now. And I can only give Man Utd my most sincere of prayers and well wishes.....they are going to need it. 😆

FrancescoAbidesOur unbeaten streak is finally over. Typical that it’s at the hands of one of the worst teams in the league. 😒 But we literally had no defence since everyone was either injured or suspended. Bosscielny was so far off the pace but that was to be expected since he’s been out almost a year. Still, we need to get a couple players in the Jan window, or utilize some of the youngsters. Saka and Medley immediately spring to mind.

Well, it's about 2 and 1/2 years too late, but better than never, I guess.

Pogba's now deleted tweet was pretty classless.

LubezkiDamn that was a fucking nightmare...we are pretty much at the stage that Liverpool was under Rodgers when Klopp took over in 2015. Lots of mediocre players all round, team languishing in Europa League, but a decent base with a few class players to build around like Aubameyang and Lacazette. At the end of the day it's gonna take time (probably 3 years) to rebuild, especially with the current top 4 looking so strong. We just need to back him and give him time to make this team into his own. Yes the owners aren't giving a lot of investment and that will be an issue, but Emery has shown with Guendouzi, Iwobi, Holding etc. that he is good at coaching young players. Our players played for many years under Wenger, it'll take a while for them to adjust to a new philosophy. Let's hope for the best. As for Liverpool, they deserve this goddamn title.

Exactly mate, Emery needs a few transfer windows to get the players he needs to transform this team into serious title contenders. We really aren’t that far off in the grand scheme of things; attacking wise we are easily one of the best. Auba is scoring for fun (although honestly this guy should have like 30 goals by now) and Laca is always a threat even though he keeps getting subbed! 🤬 But defensively it’s a complete shambles. That said, the amount of key injuries we have had in that department has been a joke. You think Liverpool would have been so solid had VVD, Robertson etc sustained significant injuries like our defenders have? Especially during this grueling Christmas schedule? Our squad had been strectched to the max. Thankfully we are starting to get players back and with another addition or two this transfer window it can propel us to the top 4. Normally we finish the season strong, so fingers crossed Emery can continue the trend. I have faith in this guy. Thoughts on Rambo joining Juventus?

I have a question. In champions League, you can have a maximum of foreign players, but UE ones count as locals if the team is from an European Union country. What happens after Brexit? I heard there's time til 2020 to fix the issue. I remember Lichtsteiner counted as extra UE as he's Swiss and Juventus couldn't put him in the list in a semester. I guess some players will be sold at a discount price. 🤔
