Did ya'all saw the group announcing of the Champions League?

WOW, This Group (1) Is the group of death in the Champion League (just like the group of death in EURO2000) These teams are in teh group of death:

- REAL MADRID
- JUVENTUS
- FC BARCELONA
- FC BAYERN MÜNICH
- SS LAZIO ROMA
- MANCHESTER UNITED
- AS MONACO
- and VALENCIA

woowy, I cant wait until the CL will starts!

any oppinions about this group of death?

Either you go to a crap site or you don't understand that well.
What you have listed is the seeds, and that is the top seed group. The draw only takes place in 10 minutes time as far as I'm aware and should go like this
There is 4 seeded groups with 8 teams in each. The pick one team from each to make up 8 x 4 champs league groups.

It is not a group,it is just the first pot.Nor of this teams will be in the same group.They are top seeded.In CL grups have 4 teams not 8.

ohh, I didnt mean that!!

the 4 groups of 4 are in fact 1 group!!

Ok, sorry this is the group of death:

1. FC BARCELONA
2. AC MILAN
3. LEEDS UTD.
4. BESIKTAS

What a marvulous day for Olympiakos and most of all there fans. Our dreams came true. We get to play against that punk Zahovic and be placed in a fairly easy group. Two in one, it doesn't get better than that.

1 Olympiakos Piraeus
2 Valencia CF
3 Olympique Lyonnais
4 SC Heerenveen

What a day. Thank you futbol gods

Barca will crush anyone and everyone!

Barca arent invisible and this will be proved at Elland Rd...

well hopefully!

I hope so too... otherwise the TV cameras will have a job showing the match... http://www.soccergaming.com/ubb/smile.gif

Well Kostas, all the other sides also think it's an easy group. Even Heerenveen think they can get through. So it could be an exciting battle for the second place behind Valencia.

There isn't really a group of death.

I highly doubt Leeds or Besiktas will even slightly bother AC Milan or Barcelona, the 2 giants will cruise through.

Eredivisie, Why do you say EVEN Heerenveen,
They are good, just like FC Barcelona!

I do not get it. This is the third year in a row that Barca have been in the "Group of Death." First in '98 w/ Bayern and ManU (who did not beat them, two 3-3 draws) and then last year w/ Arsenal and Fiorentina. What gives??? Oh well ..... guess we will have to win it again. And Dan, I think Leeds will give Milan a run for there money, and maybe even Barca. Last year Barca played two games in England. While we beat Arsenal (in Wembly), it was not in front of an Arsenal crowd. In Chelsea, well, that was a disaster. So do not underestimate Leeds, I know Ferrer will not, and neither will Barca.

Come on Philly, Heerenveen hasn't proven anything in Europe. I also hope they will do well because the number two of the Netherlands should be a force in Europe. I only think they have not enough experience. But as I said: they believe they can get through. And Europe will look up when those crazy friezen are going with 10.000 people to an away game. It must be possible for them to win the homegames against Lyon and Olympiacos. And also to take some draws away.
