    In order of most difficult...

    Group A - by far the most difficult...FCB leads FFP charge to put an end to ManC types
    Group D - Lyon aren't what they used to be but Ajax can always surprise
    Group E - three big league teams that finish near the top
    Group H - for obvious reasons
    Group F - Dortmund salvage what could have been the easiest group
    Group B - must travel to Moscow
    Group G - easy teams overall, but a lot of long flights for Porto
    Group C - honestly a joke of a group, and no surprise who gets to lead it

    Milan will be raped twice by Barca but will advance.

    Man City have the toughest road.

    ManU's group just makes me lol. Amazing how SAF has only won two CL's with the path they are usually handed.

    Really excited for the CL this year, though, there are definitely some great matchups in the group stages. Group A will be a blast, it's great to see two clubs with Barcelona and Milan's history meet twice, and D,E, and F will also have some very good matches.

    I think people are overestimating A, personally. Their number 1 doesn't stack up to the better number 1s (5/8 1s at least are better). Villarreal is a bottom half 2. Man City the toughest 3. Can't speak much to Napoli but I know Barca just spanked them 5-0.

    I don't think Man City has that hard of time as they're obviously the 2nd best team (minimum) in that group.

    Why are you mad about that? Outside of Barca/Real people should be happy when they draw a Spanish team.

    Valencia are now without Villa, Silva, and Mata and too broke to buy replacements. Think about it....

    Valencia brought in Canales, Piatti, and Rami. I think they're still a pretty decent team.

    I'd rather draw Villarreal than Valencia with Cazorla gone to Malaga. I don't think Villarreal will finish top 4 in La Liga this season, Valencia still has a good shot at that.
