You'd think him falling down on his knees would be a clear sign, I suppose not. So if Jorge would leave who'd replace him? Di Matteo and Mancini are available.

Mancini could work here, we get along with the italians. <3 Trapattoni.

 

[Ushojax]

Damn, Arsenal have amazing luck. Drawing a team that will be thrown out anyway.

Do they just get a free ride to the group or does another team get drafted in to play against them?

 

[confuziz]

I only think that Zenit would have been a worse draw than Milan for you because Zenit will be much more match fit since our season started over a month ago.

Maybe, but it's not worse than Schalke or Arsenal.

If Balotelli and/or SES are not playing...then maybe we have chance to win against Milan. It's not completely hopeless.

 

[Yurt]

Honestly, the big Italian teams have been from decent to shit this pre-season imo so luck might be on your side.

It's pre-season.

pre

season

United lost to North Korea but they're still going to win the league by 20 points in December.

Wait, why are Fener in trouble?

free ride if i'm not mistaken.

cause they're cunts. seriously, that's the reason.

 

[confuziz]

Match fixing, corruption etc. Usual business in Turkey.

 

[D_prOdigy]

They've not, they've drawn Arsenal.

Match-fixing allegations or summat

lol. Although I see that they're playing their CL games in Astana instead. Not that it makes the trip any shorter for you guys lol.

 

[phaze]

Wait, why are Fener in trouble?

They were banned by UEFA for 2 years for match fixing, but they managed to get it overturned in the CAS. Currently under a legal battle but in the meantime they have their license back.

At the bottom of all the UEFA draw / match pages it says "* Please note that the participation of Fenerbahçe SK and FC Metalist Kharkiv in the competition is subject to pending disciplinary and CAS proceedings."

Juve-GAF, give us Conte or Benfica-GAF will cut off all ties with you.

IT IS ON NOW!

I can already imagine what he'd say to the Benfica players during their first meeting. Same thing he said when he took things over at Juventus.

"Gentlemen, it's time to stop sucking."

Conte <3

 

[spidye]

What? Seriously? Would be a good signing by Arsenal.

Bild was saying this. normally I don't trust them but they have been pretty right so far when it comes to bayern rumors

 

[LegoArmo]

lol Celtic knocking out the only Swedish team in CL again. Get bent Celtic.

Elfsborg were so bad, they'd probably get relegated from the SPL.

Spoiler

Celtic were so shit too

If Fenerbahçe beat Arsenal and their ban is subsequently upheld, they'll be replaced in the group stages by Bursaspor, not Arsenal.

After watching Motherwell over two legs this year and Dundee United last season I dread to imagine the quality of team that can actually get relegated from the SPL.

Oh yeah so lucky. The hardest team we could have got days before a NLD. Sooooooo lucky.

To be honest, after Celtic, the other 41 teams in Scotland are all around the same level.

What a little twat.

Que? Last time you were Ajax and Barca supporter.

 

[CrunchyB]

Some of the Dutch folks seem to think Milan is a good draw because the Serie A hasn't started yet. And they think it's likely that Milan will underestimate PSV. I dunno, they have to make up for a big part in quality first...

PSV trashed Napoli last year, number 2 in the league. That's a fact. Another fact is that Napoli didn't give a fuck about the EL and they never really tried.

AC Milan will care about CL. PSV will be the underdog, it should be an exciting match at the very least

 

[Tc91]

Lol Raheem. Twat.

Most interesting match after Fener - Arsenal!

Kuban Krasnodar vs Feyenoord!

bye bye Feyenoord. Dat coefficient.

Lol, I was about to say Napoli couldn't give any fucks but luckily you said that yourself

But it's funny to see the different fora. On one forum I frequent everybody seems down and another forum I'm like the only person who thinks PSV isn't gonna make it against Milan. Some dude even makes it personal by calling me out for not knowing anything about football except for Ajax

 

[Suen]

Suen pls. Don't you remember last year when AIK eliminated CSKA?

AIK was probably funded by based Gazprom then. Seriously I was very surprised from that result. Not what I expected at all, Wernbloom and Elm didn't want to betray their country.

 

[D_prOdigy]

sorry, I have no idea how this works

 

[Sviatoslav]

Kuban vs Feyenoord. Eredivisie getting fucked further. Kuban is a bad draw for anyone.

Rubin vs Molde. Should be easy for Rubin.

 

[Yurt]

Juve will only be seeded in 2nd place in the Champions League if one of Arsenal, Milan, Lyon or Schalke are knocked out in the qualifiers.

Get your shit together Milan, Lyon, Schalke and Arse.....oh fuck.

The only major threat in Pot 2 is PSG. :/

 

[bud]

sviatlov, what is an "fc kuban krasnodar?" are they any good.

Arse-GAF, have we signed anyone yet or is Wenger still saying something along the lines of "some great signings are coming"?

diaby will be fit soon. he's the hero arsenal deserve, but not the one we need right now.

 

[Linius]

But just to be clear, can we really expect from a fully reformed team with a lot of youngsters who don't really have any CL experience that they can beat the likes of Milan? If you ask me their only chance is Milan underestimating them or Milan having a total off day at San Siro so they can snap an away goal or two.

 

[bjaelke]

Saint-Etienne any good?

 

[Lambda Pie]

Saint-Etienne any good?

meh. nothing special.

Braga and Estoril got easy sides.

Yeah no, you're absolutely right. Milan needs an offday and Bakkali needs to shine.

Balotelli has bought a pet pig

Just like Honey Boo Boo.

I take it he's asking this because of some Danish club? Then they probably are good

Oh FFS we drew the Georgian team.
