The Association Football Thread

Group A: FC Porto, Dynamo Kiev, Paris Saint 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 Amsterdam, 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: Man United, Braga, Galatasaray, CFR Cluj

So how does United keep getting these groups?

Group D is going to be a nightmare to get through. There's not a side there that wasn't the champion of their league last year.
 
So, if you were one of the top athletes in the world, and only dated the most beautiful women in the world you would be humble?



Yeah, right.

(excluding the fact that you're almost a billionaire)

He's nowhere near a billionaire, but I agree. He has every right to be cocky. I'd rather him be himself, than fake humility.

Iniesta might be the most respectable athletes on the planet. Messi isn't too far behind. the way Ronaldo was acting on stage was ridiculous.
 
Liverpool made another bid for Clint Dempsey. That bid was soundly rejected by Fulham.

wait, nevermind

Well this Dempsey thing is going all over the place isn't it? Both Fulham and Liverpool have told ESPN that there has been NO BID for the midfielder yet. That may change of course...

BBC reporting that Liverpool isn't accepting any more transfers tonight...

Looks like Dempsey is going to have to hope Arsenal or Tottenham comes in.
 
Hope Spurs get him. We need another striker and Dempsey would be more than suitable to fill in for Bale on the rare occasion that he sits
 
Clint Dempsey is at Tottenham for a physical.

pardon my ignorance but can Dempsey possibly get his shot at CL with Tottenham?

Depends. city and man u are likely the only league title contenders, then chelsea, arsenal and tottenham should be in for the rest of the cl bids. Newcastle is in the mix, maybe a surprise contender like everton and liverpool if they can make something happen in the silly season

Not with avb at the helm. We will contend though

I would be hoping for 6th if I was a Tottenham fan. As an Arsenal fan I am hoping for top 4, but you all aren't better than Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, or Newcastle and we are all behind Manchester.

There is even a chance that Everton will push to finish ahead of you.
