UEFA Champions League General Thread 23/24

Ah Ok, I had it reversed. I thought the Spanish Gvt were stopping him being removed and they were going to pull out of all comps in protest over it which would be insane. Now I see they are being insane for the opposite reason.

That's what nobody calls vice signaling There is no way they're going to throw away hundreds of millions over this.

They obviously wouldn't go through with it. And won't either way. It's just quite hilarious to make such huge threats for people completely uninvolved in the saga.

Really hope we don't get Newcastle. Would be dead dull playing them 3 times before Jan

 

[Gooner Zig]

Anyone but Bayern ffs

Won't be able to stomach Kane scoring against us (again)

Don't think we can draw an English opponent in the group stages right?

I thought not but I've completely forgotten how the CL works now tbh

Would love to smash PSG and Celtic twice though.

The Spanish FA are angry that their government has tried to remove the president, so they’re threatening to leave UEFA if this happens. I don’t see how that’s “virtue signalling”, they’re basically willing to screw over their club teams rather than admit Hermoso was wronged.

I understood the same way as N5 because the possibility of their FA doing something like this never even crossed my mind.

I'm still trying to wrap my head around this. They're not only beefing their own government in public, they're doing it by pointing a gun to their own head to threaten UEFA into bullying the Spanish government to back off

No matter who we draw, it's going to be great to hear the Champions League hymn over the tannoy at the Emirates again. It's been too long.

We might be in Pot 1 una:

Wow, they've done everything but given Greenwood a job.

 

[Morning_woody]

Every other team but Brokealona.
Xavi and Tets, two bald fraud wannabes, meeting eachother in an official game. No thanks. They would be micromanaging everyone to sleep.

Btw, Tets would prefer drawing PSG. That game would be like a job interview for him. Than he can go to Paris and be like Fraudiola with unlimited funds, in a farmers league where he can get away with playing 7 inverted full backs.

In my heart I've only ever really wanted the champo

Arsenal should be above the Europa league so it’s embarrassing we never won it.

 

[Bucephalus]

Anyone but Bayern ffs

Please, please, please Bayern (and the worst possible clubs from pots 3 and 4).

Won't be able to stomach watching us crash out to Bayern in the round of 16 again.

 

[Bloodbather]

Yeah, should've gotten one along the way. Chelsea and United both did it, in fact Chelsea did it twice.

 

[Thrice]

Think Rangers will be lucky to make it through. Though I kind of hope they do for the banter potential.

When was the last time Celtic or Rangers made it through the group phase? They seemingly always get embarrassed in the Champions League.

 

[Hunta]

Pretty obvious we’ll get Sociedad now.

 

[Beany]

Saving Kane for the final.

Saka vs Tesco? Yes please.

 

[Riou]

Looking forward to being back in this competition, it's for the best of the best.

Get a little annoyed when I see Arsenal fans on social media saying they will celebrate it like a trophy knowing we are playing on Tuesday/Wednesday night again, state of it!

Heard one Arsenal fan on Don Robbie's YouTube show say how he would be crying when he hears the music again, makes us look so small time ffs
