What do you think then people?

1) Deportive La Coruna

2) Liverpool Football Club

3) Monaco

4) Olympiakos

I personally think that all of the English teams got a great draw, with Chelski probably coming off worst, with tricky trips to Porto, Paris and Russia.

The Mancs got the usual good draw, and Arsenal are likely to struggle.

I think we should easily come out of that group, and have a good chance of topping it.

Also we are in the right group alphebetically, A ..........

Not a bad draw but all the away trips will be tough tasks still. Just glad that Morientes wont be around for Monaco aswell.

All Groups are hard, but overall a good draw

Yeah, I felt same as you.

But we can do it and I am confident we'll get through, no problem at all.

It's going to be tough but if we ever thought we had a chance of winning it this season then we would have to beat the best. We'll just have to do it a bit sooner that's all.

Are you mad

Chelsea have a handy draw seeing as they have a weakened porto and a dodgy psg and to top it off cska who ambramovich has many links with and no doubt they will not put up any struggle against chelsea.

Celtic have the hardest group by a distance.

As for us it could have been alot better but then again it's a group we are capable of winning.

Olympiakos, could be a surprise package - Encouraged by the Greek success at Euro 2004.
Rafa will be well versed in Deportivo and Monaco and will have a cunning plan !!

Tough draw for us, Monace at home in the opener will be massive - a win would set us on the way nicely

Posted: **Thu Aug 26, 2004 5:16 pm**

all three away trips will be tough, but i reckon we wont finish any lower than second
