    Looking at the quality of some of our potential opponents, can't help but think we're going to struggle :54:

    Of course it will be, as it will for just about everyone. Even the rich English clubs will be struggling.

    If Brendan is ruthless though, makes a couple of big signings and gets his team selection spot on. Then we have a chance of at least being competitive in the Group and not embarrassing ourselves, which at the end of the day is all we can ask for.

    Plus if we draw Benfica we know we're in the last 16.

    Before you sometimes had 3 top seeds from England and spain and I'm sure Germany and Italy a couple times have has 2 top seeds. Now no nation can have more than 2 top seeds and 7 leagues assured a top seed place surely that was a move in the right direction?

    Lyon, PSV, Gladbach and Sporting are far more 'glamorous' than a team that hasn't won the league in over half a century and has only ever won 2 league titles.

    Celtic going up against Spurs would attract far more viewers then Celtic versus any of those teams.

    Just me who would love Celtic? Definite home win and probably away too, it's cheaper and easier to get to. Also3rd in the group guarantees European knockout so there's an extra place to visitanyway and 3rd is easily do-able with Celtic in our group


    that european powerhouse leicester getting above themselves already....sorry to say but you will have your * handed to you in the groups .....id love them at CP in the CL to shut them up.

    I really think some people are unrealistic about Leicester and especially Spurs. Rodgers is a sensational manager, but he's not a wizard FFS, he needs at least a full season to get us back to being a force. This is still basically Deila's team with a couple of key additions, a bit more tactical nous and a bit less mental frailty. Spurs would bend us over home and away and Leicester would probably beat us in both games too.
