Obviously Real are a brilliant side but the 2nd and 3rd seeds are as weak as you could hope far. Decent chance to progress and at the very points = £’s. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jinky67 Posted August 25, 2022 Share Posted August 25, 2022 It’s as good a draw as we could hope for imo, Real Madrid can now and then drop silly points in the group stages just look at the Sherif result last season. We have to be aiming for 2nd here 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They haven’t played a “home” game in about 8 years with Donetsk being occupied since 2014 So they’ll be used to playing away for home games I wouldn’t write them off at all 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lionsof67 Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 (edited) ignoring real madrid i see this as a group of 3 between us, RB and Donetsk. 1st gets CL after xmas, 2nd gets europa league, 3rd is out. so just outdo at least one of them and we're good. but looking back at Madrid over the last 5ish group stages they've been beaten home and away by cska moscow and donetsk while also losing to Sheriff so maybe just maybe this could be one of those kind of years for Madrid and we get to be the lucky recipients. of course its hilarious that both cska and donetsk despite winning both ties over madrid somehow managed to finish last in both groups Edited August 27, 2022 by Lionsof67 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HailHailHayley Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 Gotta be getting European football after Christmas as a minimum. 2nd needs to be the aim & is doable, 3rd & a long run in the Europa wouldn't be a disaster. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you could have hand picked the 2nd and 3rd seeds that’s the ones you would have picked. Also playing Madrid last is a bonus as I expect they’ll have qualified by then and won’t play all of their ‘galacticos’. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have shown in previous seasons they can be slow starters and been on the receiving end of a few upsets, fingers crossed we can be one of them and at least start with a point. The draw and the fixtures have been kind to us imo Edited August 27, 2022 by Jinky67 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
