Damn, rough draw for the Belgian teams
Club Brugge obviously won't get a result against PSG and Madrid, but I think the board will be happy with a couple of marquee matchups. Hopefully we play PSG first now that Mbappe and Cavani are out. I'm confident we can finish ahead of Galatasaray though, although I really have no idea how good they are at the moment.
Genk will have no chance I think. They're rebuilding after losing a lot of talent over the summer and that will need time. Liverpool and Napoli will be way too strong, and even against a smaller, yet well oiled machine like Salzburg I can't see them getting more than 2 or 3 points.
I cannot complain about the draw but getting a different team than Napoli would have been nice.It's a bit different feeling not really minding who Liverpool get in the draw.
Arsenal 2-1 BarcelonaWhen did Arsenal beat Barca?
And no its not bias and I don't hate EPL and I hate their arrogant/ignorant fans. Never said the top 6 weren't good teams.
That's because you lot want easy teams to play against. Of course 5th and 6th place clubs like Arsenal, Spurs, and United will give Liverpool more of a challenge than the likes of Genk, Red Star, Donetsk, LOSC, etc. Sorry, but those are facts.Your team failed to even finish fourth. I think I speak for everyone when I say nobody wants 5th and 6th place teams that couldn’t win a trophy in the CL.
That was a fluke, but finishing 5th was not. Arsenal just had an extremely poor run in the last month of the season including an absolutely brutal away record. None of those are excuses, just facts. What is hilarious is when people put Arsenal so far behind the likes of Chelsea and Tottenham who both had terrible forms like Arsenal to finish the season.Of course, a fluke. I guess finishing 5th in the league was also a fluke? Always some excuse.
I get that it's Europe, but even those clubs of the smaller nations are the richest in those nations so they tend to do the best and then you put them with the giants like the Hercules Arsenal and they get whacked like a mobster. Arsenal would make the round of 16 in the group stages' B, C, D, E, G, and H. You telling me we don't belong?That isnt what the competition is about. If you wanna see your team in competitions they maybe be able to compete and win in theres the Carbou cup and the FA cup. CL is for UEFA not English teams.
Arsenal wrecked Red Star, the only good thing about Red Star was that their fans went down with the Titanic admirably.This is not more appropriate at all because Arsenal failed to make the CL. Please put this in the Europa League thread where Arsenal posts belong.
P.S. Red Star got a better result against us last year than Arsenal have gotten in years.
Nobody cares? You just said that Red Star is more dangerous than the Arsenal to Liverpool and I cleared your common misconceptions that Arsenal wrecked Red Star when we played them. Didn't Liverpool set a record with wins at Anfield or are you trying to diminish your own lots home arena and how tough it is to play there?Nobody cares. This is boring.
Is the countertrolling really expected to be effective?
This is the more appropriate thread

And that was against Barca's golden age team too.

I'd like one of tottenham, Ajax or Dortmund for different reasons. I also would like Inter.
