shit format, might as well do Superliga but uefa wants that bag.

Damn seeing these teams our draw is actually a blessing

True, we need to finish top4 in the league format. Only a loss against Bayern can happen. Provided we don't lose more players to injuries of course.

Soooo, from 32 teams: 8 go through directly, 16 play playoffs against each other and 8 are out? That's rather low stakes for the big teams.

Last years CL group was about as lucky as could get and made that a struggle.

Should expect better this time round.

I like it. Tougher games for everyone basically.

 

[serghei]

But they didn't solve luck playing a big role.

Soooo, from 36 teams: 8 go through directly, 16 play playoffs against each other and 12 are out? That's rather low stakes for the big teams.

FIFY

Should finish top 8 on this draw. At least 2 of the other pot 1 teams got a much tougher draw. PSG and Arsenal. Dortmund got a bad one too, some others.

Also, what's important in our financial situation.

You get 2,1m for a win and 700k for a draw. IIRC in previous years you were awarded around 3m for a win so less money now.

But OTOH you get more money the higher you finish on the table. Winning the group gets you 9,9m and then 275k less for every position lower. So pretty important to finish as high as we can.
