Group A looks like its going to be amazing to watch, there are a lot of very talented players in that group. Aguero/Tevez, Rossi, Cavani, Hamsik, Neuer, Schweinsteiger.

Oh look, man U got an easy group again. What a surprise.

 

[Mathew81]

Not an easy group for Arsenal but not extremely difficult either. Should finish first. Of course they had an easy group last year and finished second. Ended up having to play Barca because of it. Hopefully they'll avoid that this year.

Are you kidding? That storyline is way too juicy to avoid. Quarter/semifinals meeting is bound to happen.

I've seen that story play out the last 2 years. Doesn't end well for Arsenal. Looking for something different.

Dortmund is better than Arsenal right now.

Dortmund is better than Arsenal right now.

Mario Gotze, Nevan Subotic, and Lucas Barrios are very good players. Had they kept Nuri Sahin, they probably would dominate that group.

 

[Renz]

Dortmund is better than Arsenal right now.

I watched Dortmund in the German Super Cup and in Week 1 against Hamburg. Dortmund were very impressive. Very good players who play well as a team.

I could see them making a deep CL run the way Schalke did last season.

I watched Dortmund vs Leverkusen on Saturday and they were less than impressive.

That's not saying much.

Dortmund ran away with the Bundesliga last season. Watch more than one match. They're a very good team.

I'll watch more when I can.

 

[Renz]

Dortmund's making me look bad. They looked great last year and the beginning of this season. Not so much now.

 

[Mathew81]

Give it up for Arsenal. Only English team to win this week.

 

[Mathew81]

Arsenal were frustrating today. Didn't create much at all but then, BAM, last minute winner. It's great to be on the winning end of one of those. Arsenal looking pretty good to get through now leading their group with 7 points and 2 of the 3 remaining games at home. Dortmund with only 1 point after losing 3-1 to Olymiacos. What the hell happened there?

Arsenal clinch 1st in their group with a game to go! They are the only English team to qualify so far. Who would have thought that would be the case when the groups were announced? None of the other 3 teams have it easy for the final games either. In fact, Man City need to win AND have Napoli lose or draw to Villarreal, who haven't even got a point yet.

Shocking really.

Glad Arsenal is doing well.

Anyone going to watch the Euro 2012 draw today?

 

[Mathew81]

Wow. BOTH Manchester teams out of the Champions League.

The Rooney miss was pretty brilliant, but I think the fact that man u will have to play in the Europa League makes me even happier.

How does that work that the manchesters will both be in Europa league?
