Nice draw...not bad..Chelsea,Porta,Atletico and Al..something...

Bring on APOEL FC!

hell yes finally a 'nice' team to play against!

The Complete one

Group A: Bayern Munich, Juventus, Bordeaux, Maccabi Haifa
Group B: Manchester United, CSKA Moscow, Besiktas, Wolfsburg
Group C: AC Milan, Real Madrid, Marseille, Zurich
Group D: Chelsea, Porto, Atletico Madrid, APOEL
Group E: Liverpool, Lyon, Fiorentina, Debrecen
Group F: Barcelona, Inter, Dynamo Kyiv, Rubin Kazan
Group G: Sevilla, Rangers, Stuttgart, Unirea Urziceni
Group H: Arsenal, AZ, Olympiacos, Standard Liege

Kaka against AC
Zlatan against Mourinho..what a drama..

hmm not the best of draws to be frank. porto came awfully close to embarassing united last season if not for the brilliance of ronaldo, and atletico can beat anyone on their day. looks like chelsea and liverpool have a huge battle on their hands. lyon and fiorentina are class as well.

Woah.

Group D: CHELSEA, FC Porto, Atletico Madrid, APOEL

Group of death to me.

yap Lyon and Fiorentina is a good team now...

I believe Chelsea can play Atletico and Porto...

How about the rumours that Carlo already list the rank of the striker..

Drogba,Anelka,Kalou,Sturridge,SHEVA...look like he wont make it in the UCL team...

there is no group of DEATH this time for me...

the toughest group i would say are:

Group E: Liverpool, Lyon, Fiorentina, Debrecen

cuz there are 3 good teams from each respective leagues.

chelsea can meet new opponets this time albeit i get bored of meeting porto again in CL.

I think we can pass this group stage..no problem..

what i'm concern is the team for the UCL...Stoch and Sinclair or even Di Santo will be include or not...and Sheva fate...

I did a quick check on APOEL FC and found out that Nuno Morais is in the team. If you all remember, this guy had shared a short history with us. He was signed into the reserves back in 2004 by JM. Hardly used in the 1st team. I can't even remember much about his 1st team appearance but wiki says it is less than 20 minutes in total against Man Utd and Everton at the Bridge. He left on a free transfer in 2007.

based on my PES outcome: chelsea will BURN burnley 5-0 this weekend!

congrats to our captain!

eh our group quite tricky leh

on paper, man utd and arsenal does have it easy.. hmm

yeap. i think this draw isnt as easy as it looks. i wouldnt underestimate porto and atletico. they can beat any team on their day. this is dangerous.

how does drogba's ban work? i heard something like a span within few years?

Total suspension: 5 games. After appeal, Drogba will be suspended for 3 games. The other 2 games will depend on the 3-year probation.

Total suspension: 3 games. After appeal, Bosingwa will be suspended for 2 games. The other 1 game will depend on a 3-year probation.

how many games did the stupid ref got ban for his part in the debacle?

so sad for drogba ban n bosingwa too...


our draw.. hmmmm....

shouldnt look down on porto, they won once under you know who, atletico madrid also a very good club. APOEL??? i dunno...

oh mannnnnn. this is totally not good. 3 games ?! so izzit the first 3 games or we can choose. haha. but im guessing the first 3 games right?
