    If you asked football fans to pick the top six European leagues, I wonder how many would have Russia in there?

    I would have thought it would be England, Spain, Italy, Germany, France and Portugal.
    I'd expect the Netherlands to be higher than 11th, too.
    Russian teams must be doing well in games that I haven't noticed.

    What an exciting group! I think we should finish at least 5th.

    Why were Genk lobbed straight into your group? Do we have too many Belgians or something? Weird.
    They beat us last time though, so perhaps Red Star is a better draw? Definitely a worse visit for the fans, though.

    I wonder who City will get in the next round?

    At a guess, it would have been something to do with the remaining teams.

    There was one left, which was Red Star. Is it because of what happened there last year?

    No idea. Would need to see what teams and groups were left at that point. I instantly lost interest once or group was confirmed :)

    We can’t be too unhappy with that. Mind you, the way we’re playing right now!.....!

    The three toughest groups are D and F, then maybe G, as it's quite an even one?

    All look a bit dull to me bar perhaps Barca's group tbh. I'll probably just wait until the ko rounds as per.
