Who's group is tougher? - TalkCeltic

At the start everyone thought the huns were going to get humped but none of their teams have played very well, whereas shahktar are on fire and Mlan are the holders. What do you think?

Is there an easy group out there????

On paper Ranger's group is the easiest and if all the teams in the group played to their potential they would be crashing out. However Lyon and Stuttgart are nothing like the teams that won their respective leagues last season which on current form has made their group easier than expected. In our group we have a Benfica side who are always dangerous and Shaktar who will be a real surprise package in the CL and a Milan team who's name speaks for itself

rangers is easier. i said this when the draw was made i did not want shaktar!
i'd have preferd lyon! and there second seed's

Rangers do not have the easier group at all will we dredge up all the posts laughing at their group and how much they'd get humped? As much as it pains me to say it they've started well in a very tough group. Lyon aren't the force they were and Stuttgart not as big a force as Bayern in the past but they both won their leagues then there's Barca.....

They're not through yet anyway 2 defeats to Barca and they're deflated for the rest of the campaign. Let's not jump on the 'they have the easier group bandwagon it's far too easy for Celtic fans to act so fickle.

i wasn't hammer! right after a the draw a text a mate saying rangers have it easy and were fucked.
was AMAZED when everyone thought rangers had it harder

I was saying Rangers before it all started, but after the way Stuttgart and Lyon played was very awfull for teams being League Champions, i voted for Celtic being in the harder group.

**thebhoymalone** · 05-10-2007, 08:25 PM

We are in a group with the European Champions therefore our group is the hardest in my opinion

**Immortal** · 05-10-2007, 08:28 PM

have to say their group is tougher.

Although we have milan, donezk and benfica ain't really big numbers in european football based on their recent achievements.

Lyon, although totally shite at the moment, won their league 6 in a row and achieved some reasonable results in europe last season.

Barcelona, imo the best team in europe and they are back!

stuttgart, german champion.. the bundesliga ain't really easy to win.

As much as i hate to say it but the huns have a harder group imo. barca are better than milan

topbhoy1967 · 05-10-2007, 10:00 PM

I thin Benfica have the toughest group - they are in with Shaktar (fuckin good team), European champs Milan and the now unofficial Euro champs CELTIC - WHOO HOO.

luvin it!!!!!

PaddyBonner1 · 05-10-2007, 10:38 PM

GuitarBhoy · 06-10-2007, 06:43 AM
