Atmosphere in Germany will be amazing. Didn't we design one of our new stands to be like Dortmund...

The harder the better imo, we played "lesser" sides last year, and I feel we underestimated them. Can't see that happening this year. If we make it out of our group we will have nothing to fear in the knockouts.

if you fear the big boys then why you want us to play in CL...:banghead:

Because people are worried about not getting out the group. Getting knocked out is nothing to be ashamed off but to not get out the group is seen as being embarrassing.

Guys, I'm looking for Arsenals group. Has there been an error?

I thought the same thing during the draw. In my mind, I was like "When does Arsenal get drawn?". Then I remembered! :D

Isn't it funny that most of the comments on THFC's twitter are from disgruntled Arsenal fans. Sure, we got a though group, but at least we are in the Champions League. When's the draw for the Europa League? Don't care, it's a loser competition! :cool:

Excellent, I'm chuffed to play the holders. You don't get the glory glory nights by playing the mugs, you have to take on the quality for that. Bring it on. COYS.

I was hoping for Barca and Juve but..

This is a fucking epic group. We did alright last time we played the reigning European champions. Fucking bring it on.

Well Dembele is heading to Barca so there will be no battle of the Dembeles :(

Wow what an amazing group though. Neither away game is too far either which is nice. This is what the CL is all about though. Bring on the Cypriots!!!

I'm not familiar with many of the Athletikos Podosferikos Omilos Ellinon Lefkosias players,
but I see they've got aussie international Tommy Oar, who flopped at Ipswich two years ago.

Bet Dele is even more pissed off now seeing as he's going to miss a couple of heavy hitters.

Dortmund are on US tv 24/7 and I watch them all the time. We can absolutely do them. They don't play defense.

Get in our transfer targets and there's no reason we can't quality from that group.
On our day we can give anybody a game...COYS

They're not what they were, that's for sure. 2nd is very much up for grabs, we have to be be full strength and clinical though

We can beat Dortmund to second. They're a team in transition with a new manager and losing their best player. We on the other hand are a settled side.

It will be difficult with the Wembley factor and being without Dele for the first three matches but if Kane, Eriksen, and Son are fit and on form we can do it.
