    PSG doing a number on Nice just now. 2-0 HT but it should be 4-0, Cavani and someone else (can't mind who) missed quite easy chances.

    11-1 with Marathon Bet or you could lay Bayern at 3-10 on the exchanges.

    Let's build on Bayern with more of the same vs PSG and Anderlecht. Noticed Anderlecht are yet to score in the Champs Lg (we have 4... 3 @ Anderlecht, 1 v Bayern), so it's hard to see them overturning us over the two legs.

    If we can keep building momentum, the team should be well up for Europa. Hopefully the draws we get aren't harsh, cuz it would be great experience to get at least a couple of ties in the knockout stage.

    Pundits talk *, in another group we may well be in a position to go through. Our group contains PSG (who have essentially bought the CL) who have hammered every team in their path this season and Bayern Munich, winners and regular semi finalists and finalists, who skelped Arsenal 10-2 in aggregate earlier this year (no one saying English clubs can’t compete when that happened). Lastly Anderlecht in our group, who last season went far in the Europa league and Man U were VERY lucky to beat over two legs.

    I think Celtic have done well. Always need a few games to shake off the awe and build confidence. Unlucky not to take any points from Tuesday but the longer we’re here the more belief and confidence we’ll have to see that we can hang in there and really make some noise in Europe again (realistically).

    See tbh tho it might be an earlier start to the season but having an extra competitive tie might not be a bad thing!

    The champions league is getting worse and worse has been for a number of years reason bring its the same clubs from the same leagues playing each other season apon season the games are boring they sit back and try not to loose rather than win and yet we the so called small leagues just allow this * to happen

    Crazy number of games.

    We seem to go into every period of CL qualifiers saying if we make it this season it will be a massive achievement. Pretty clear already, if we make it to the groups next season, it will be an incredible achievement given the obstacles continually being thrown our way.

    Can't help but feel losing a league game and taking away the need to go full pelt for 38 would be a huge blessing in disguise come July.

    Scotland not getting to the world cup is huge aswell

    Shows how corrupt it is. What’s the point in having FFP rules if they aren’t enforced. Hope streaming bursts the Bubbles of the big leagues, make it a fairer playing field again.
