Interesting draws:

Chelsea naturally gets Athletico Madrid.  Crazy.  Tough group that includes Roma as well.

Man United have a very favorable draw IMO.

Real Madrid has a very tough draw.  Group includes Tottenham and Dortmund.

Bayern and PSG drawn together as well.

Juventus and Barca also in the same group.

i'm sooooooooo shocked that United got the easiest group. who could have seen that coming, nobody in the whole world.

Being picky but I think Group G is actually the easier group.  Initially I thought Liverpool had a good chance but I'm not completely sold they can overtake Spartak and Sevilla.  I think they probably fight Sevilla for the top spot.  That will be interesting.  Group F won't be a cake walk for Man City either...but I think they'll top it in the end.

Almost feel bad for Spurs getting the group of death, Group B should be entertaining with Bayern and PSG, City have a manageable group, would say either group A or group E are the easiest.

at least they have all those new signings to help them. lmao.

It's collusion I tell ya!!!

FIFA and UEFA are both corrupted...  I think it's been proven multiple times.

That said, I have no clue if there is collusion or not but it's odd MU always gets weak teams in group stage.

Group H will be fun to watch for sure.  My dream Group of Death was Real/PSG/Tottenham/Leipzig but Real/Dortmund/Tottenham will be pretty damn good

Group E is the weakest to me, followed by Group A

Groups B and D are the easiest to pick you R16 teams, the question will be which of Bayer/PSG and Juve/Barca get the in the Group Winners pot.  Group C probably is next in this category with Chelsea/Atletico although perhaps Roma can keep it interesting, I do not see that possibility in B/D

If I were to pick the team most likely to top their group it would be City in Group F

I find Group G very interesting.  You have two teams outside the Big Four leagues that have experience past the group stage while the group's lone Big Four team (Leipzig) is brand new to the competition.

I think we can all agree that APOEL got screwed

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      What the hell?  How is presenting Cam's stats hating him?  The point is not to hate Cam, it is to show you how similar Jones is to him and why you take a look at him.  I mentioned Jones has the skill set to take a look--the response is, "look at his 5 years of performance."  So I compare him to the greatest QB in franchise history, and the stats are similar--while Jones was in a worse situation.  Now that is "hating?"  Come on.  This is a meritless, ignorant, personal attack because you are wrong.  Just stop it.  You all attack the poster when you have nothing.  So saying "we should consider a guy with similar stats and size to Cam Newton" is now hating Cam and making me a Jones super fan- that is just stupid.

      LOL wut? His career stats. 24-44-1 With 9 wins his highest ever.  With Barkley 64% 14000 yards passing going over 3000 just 1 fuging time 70 tds 47 ints to go along with 50 fumbles.  50 fuging fumbles In short he has 1 season over 5 wins.  1.

      So a starting QB with 5+ years of experience and whose stats are very similar (if you do math) with Cam Newton's stats (who had much better defenses and offensive lines) here becomes available, and Bryce is your QB and you do NOT kick the tires on Jones.  You simply call him a "broken toy" and do nothing.  That sounds like a very passive approach.  Remember, you labeled him, not the stats he accumulated on some pretty bad teams since 2019.  I am telling you what a smart GM would do, and even if Jones is broken and can't be fixed, you make that determination after giving the matter due diligence.  You and Completely are simply forcing your opinions about his play into logic, and the stats do not support them.  Put him in a better situation and he will do better, but in a bad situation, with some terrible offensive lines, WRs, and bad defenses,  he was on track to have stats that parallel Cam Newton--like it or not--numbers don't lie, nor does his size, arm strength, speed, and intelligence.  Broken? I am saying he is an interesting prospect and should not be overlooked by bias, misinformation, and context.
