Are we predicting all scores or just the top two that advance from each group?

That's quite a lot better than Real Madrid and Liverpool

So, are you already over the play-off defeat?

Yup.. To be honest, Steaua isn't really ready for the  UCL group stage anyway.. Right now, Steaua is lacking in many aspects and I think UEL is actually much better for them.. :S

Two days with no internet. I nearly died here, had to go to the library to check the group stages out. Thank the gods I didn't have a pre-DRM Xbox One.

Anyway, as an Athletic fan I'm pretty happy with group H. All teams are tough in the CL and it won't be easy, but at least we avoided the top teams in Europe. Porto is the rival to beat.

Group E looks like the only big group. Group C and Group H are extremely poor. The rest are well... Average.


 Group E is going to be fun to watch, all are very strong teams. What a way  to return for Roma.

Napoli people should seriously be upset with their team, seeing group H should be very painful for them.

PSG-Barsa, Atletico-Juve, liverpool-RM & Roma-Bayern are the most exiting games of the group stage IMO.

 

 Sad not to see Milan there, and even ManU. But well life goes on.

The only team that Napoli might be stronger than in group H is BATE.

Porto, Shaktar and Bilbao would all stomp Benitez team.

 I do not really believe so. Napoli did not play well againts Athletic, however they did a great champions league last year. Porto is at the same level, but the other teams are not.

I haven't seen Athletic playing yet but if you check our track record in European competitions, we'll only lose to R. Madrid, Barca, MU, Milan, Bayern.

The other scrubs get stomped on the regular basis.

Yeah, Group H is pretty good! I have a feeling that Athletic can even take the first place if they try hard enough!

Big games today!

Looking forward to Everton v Chelsea and Burnley destroying United hopes.



                            

I wonder why you guys still care about the CL. Same crap every year, same teams, one of the money shitters will win it. It's more obvious than ever that CL and the people behind it are slowly destroying European club fotball.

And the media still sell the same boring groups as group of death or something similar stupid.

Even if it is the same old teams playing and winning, we still see some brilliant football being played.
