Hardest game first, like it.

 

And how do they match up with league fixtures before and after?

 

that at a quick glance looks about as good as could be hoped .

 

Yeah that's not too bad, couple big games follow European games, but then so do our rivals

 

Man City and Spurs immediately after CL games but they may have the same. Can't grumble at five home and one away though

 

I think we should be able to get a point away to Napoli at least.Carlo Ancelotti was unhappy with his defeat at Anfield last year. He is going to be ready for us.

 

There is not really a group of death this time around it all seems quite evenly spread.

 

F?

 

Um, yeah ok may have missed that.
