are lyon any good, bunnyman? no benzema etc etc
[/quote]They were pretty ordinary last season. Can't remember who they've bought this summer.
Either way, they're certainly not at the same level they were at five years ago.

Well our 'Managing Director' just said after the draw, when asked whether there is going to be any transfer activity before the window closes:
"Don't bank on it"

Ok not such a bad group.. and like someone said, if we cant make it past this group then we dont deserve to be in the finals.
i watch the serie a and ive seen the ligue 1 aswell..
ill some it up for those who dont know much about these teams...
Fiorentina:
Players to look out for: Mutu, Jovetic, Gilardino, Kuzmanovic, Frey, Danielli, Vargas and Montilivio
Lyon:
Players to look out for: Lisandro Lopez, Kallstrom, Ederson, Gomis, Pjanic, Toulalan and Cissokho
Debrecen:
Wouldnt have a clue but if we dont destroy this team then we have serious issues..

Good draw but forget the fact Lyon finished 3rd last season didn't they spend like 50M or something this Summer and twat some qualifiers by a cricket score ? Dangerous team if we to WIN the group.
However is the final 16 a draw ? I hope so and not us playing 1st or 2nd in the next group - Barca or Inter.

if uefa carry on making it easier for all these nobody teams to take up the th team whipping boy position its only a matter of time before we see a new type of european super league emerge. sorry but regardless of if we win four of those games in our group are shit and there's similar number of shit games in the other groups.

Wenger did an interview recently that doesn't seem to have been widely disseminated in the Uk,but basically he thinks a European League is inevitable.
He mentioned that a lot of behind the scenes work has already been undertaken and moves are definitely afoot to get it up and running.

Rafael Benitez is relishing the start of Liverpool's Champions League adventure after the Reds discovered their group stage opponents on Thursday afternoon.
The Reds will face Lyon, Fiorentina and Debreceni in Group E of the competition following today's draw in Monaco - three sides they have never previously met in European competition.
"You know in the Champions League there will always be difficult games and tough teams to play against," Benitez told Liverpoolfc.tv.
"Lyon might not have won the league last season but before that they won it many years in a row, so we know they have lots of good players who can play good football.
"Fiorentina are an historic club in a nice city. I know from experience they have fanatstic supporters because I spent some time there when Claudio Ranieri was the coach.
"And we have experience of Hungarian football because of our relationship with MTK, so if Debreceni have won their league then we know it means it's because they're a good side.
"The important thing as always is that the travelling isn't too bad, we don't have too far to go for any of the games. We're just looking forward to starting the competition now."

I was actually in Florence on the 29th September last year. Beautiful city. If anyone's going and has a spare ticket, please let me know.

Have they cleaned it up? The last time I went was a few years ago and, while I enjoyed my visit (I've always liked Italy), the buildings were consistently grubby on the outside.

We're more than strong enough to top this group, but we could do without our whole team playing like they've got AIDS like they have been recently.

Hooz should be our press manager/ club spokesman.

The reality is we always moan about our group in case we come unstuck. But, as always, its fairly piss easy and if we don't qualify we need shooting. If Lyon came 3rd in the French League, they're shit.

Like Marseille were shit when they beat us at Anfield a couple of years ago? Put it this way: they're better than Aston Villa. If we play like we did the other day, we'll probably lose against Lyon.
