[ADG]

Good Lord that is the deathiest Group of Death I think I've ever seen.

[Matt]

Madrid, City, Ajax and Dortmund... OUCH!

[MJB]

City got Dortmund, Madrid and Ajax.

Ouch.

I'm fairly happy with United's group. But then again, I was ecstatic with last year's and look how that turned out

[GoGo Yubari]

Hahaha, Group D.

[Blaze09]

Seriously, Fuck My Life right now

[therockbox]

Group D is awesome.

[Dan]

Nice to see a group like that, usually we have a group with two or sometimes three big teams in, but a group like that is very rare.

[Lineker]

Way to go me, forgetting that there are actually eight groups!!

The groups, now in full:

Group A: Porto, Dynamo Kiev, Paris St Germain, Dinamo Zagreb.

Group B: Arsenal, Schalke, Olympiakos, Montpellier.

Group C: AC Milan, Zenit St Petersburg, Anderlecht, Malaga.

Group D: Real Madrid, Manchester City, Ajax, Borussia Dortmund.

Group E: Chelsea, Shakhtar Donetsk, Juventus, FC Nordsjaelland.

Group F: Bayern Munich, Valencia, Lille, BATE Borisov.

Group G: Barcelona, Benfica, Spartak Moscow, Celtic.

Group H: Manchester United, Braga, Galatasaray, CFR Cluj.

We'll be fine this time around!

Winning in Turkey will be difficult, though.

[EddieG]

Real, City and Ajax. That would be one hell of a group for dortmund.

Good call.

WHY?

I'd much rather have City's group, the point of getting to the CL is to try and win it, but it's also to play the best teams in Europe. Some cracking games for City fans and I'm sure you'll have a great day or two at the Etihad.

[Cheeky Hughes]

Oh fuck off, random drawing.

Gonna be fun calling Benzema every name under the sun though!

It's nice to have those "big games" at the last 16/QF stage, though.

[Lineker]

Arsenal always tend to get a piss easy group yet somehow always only just scrape through.
