Essential The Official Football (Soccer) Thread - New season, same old United

Actually wouldn't mind a difficult group again this season as we're far better equipped to deal with it than we were last year.

Think Arsenal's luck has to run out at some stage so can see them in this season's group of death.

Dortmund in pot 3 ?
How is that CC value calculated ?

These are the same exact ratings from FIFA 13, though.

based on 5 years. Dortmund wasn't that strong in Europe before last year.

Imagine a group of Barca, PSG, Dortmund & Napoli

or

Bayern, Juve, Citeh & Sociedad


Would love a group of Benfica, Olympiacos & Plzen.

As far as I'm aware it's calculated over a five-year period which explains Dortmund in pot 3. It wasn't that long ago that Real Madrid were in pot 2 because they couldn't get past the round of 16.

Moyes' baptism of fire. I can legit see him having a panic attack in a big CL game.
Pot 3 is full of quality. A Drogba homecoming would be laaaaarvely.

Can't have two teams from the same nation in the same group breh...


with all this group of death talk. Arsenal-Olympaicos are the only certainties. I could see PSG in there too.
