Nice draw for Rangers. Chelsea got the worst of it in terms of English teams.
All four to progress i would think.
Chelsea will finish second behind Atleti! Some big games in there- Bayern vs Juve, Real vs Milan, Inter vs Barca... Arsenal got an easy group!!
Arsenal get a pretty easy group again.
Rangers group is ridiculous, but still think they're unlikely to get through.

Juve to beat Madrid in the final
Not too far off, but think that Atletico Madrid > Porto this season (expect loss of Lisandro will hit them hard), and in group H there'll be an almighty scramble for the second, would give Olympiakos a slight edge at this stage.
As for the final, Real Madrid may get there, highly doubt Juve can.el grapadura2009-08-28 08:40:13
Reds to twat Real in the Final! And Atletico over Porto, as you say.
FOR�A PORTO
Just you wait and see.
And it's Juve's time, Diego will be HUGE
MUFC got a crap draw
Obafemi will be fored up to give it to them
the other good thing is we will get two games shown because the TV station is only allowed to show MUFC or Real Madrid it seems
it'll be backward somersault city

Continued hate for Chelsea. 
Can't see us losing one game on our way to pick up our well deserved CL Trophy which was stolen from us last season.

I FEAR this means no of us can be hired as TV Football analyst lads.

No-one stole anything from Chelsea. It was their own incompetence that denied them a spot in the final.

Yah, but Chelseea will win their pool.
Not sure if Chelsea will finish top. They've got the toughest group of the English teams - but they should qualify.

Group F? No.
I don't think there is a real group of death this time round. Bit boring really.
It was more of a trainspotting comment rather than my actual thoughts.
If there is a group of death, it's probably either Chelsea's or Bayern's group, in each of which where there's three teams that would probably have expected at the start of the draw to progress to knockout rounds.

Lisandro who? I'm all about the FALCAO now
Long way to go, amigo.
Declaring Liverpool out of the Champions League before their elimination doesn't have a proud history. I honestly can't believe that they'll fail to get through the Group Stage.
Of course, Barcelona will be walking away with the title, and they're so much better than any other club it's hard to even imagine who will meet them in the final. ;-)
