Fortunate then that its not for you who decides it for them.

That's for sure, because, as it is clearly evident, I don't really care about those particular teams.

I understand your point of view from the perspective of the European powerhouses, but I cannot understand how you fail to notice that for every other continent in the whole world this "promotional tournament" is the only chance they got to beat the legendary Real Madrid, for example.

Making an analogy with BW, it's like your chance to beat Flash in a tournament. You beat all your fellows in your home turf, in your continent. Now it's time to face the final challenge, to beat god himself. Would not you want to give all your strenght to go down in history? Would not you be excited, even if it is unlikely you could win?

From Flash's perspective, he might not care that much. But from your perspective, it is the highest you can achieve, the day you go down the books, make the tales for the future generations.

You say you don't care, like I don't know any bulgarian football teams, and it's perfectly okay. But I for sure would be happy to watch some unknown bulgarian team bravely taking down Ronaldo, Messi, Neymar, etc.

Just like Leicester did in 2015-16 in the Premier League. It was magical, even though I am not attached to that club in any way.

so apparently Sun accused Guardiola of saying vulgar things to a player but the player himself stated that nothing of that is true.

I really hope Guardiola sues them.

the player could easily just be defending the manager and the club. i think the sun would know better than to write up some random shit that is just gonna bring a defamation suit against them.

Don't think pep will sue even if he literally said what Redmond said he said. Which i still can't believe it is true. He was going absolutely crazy shouting and foaming at the mouth and im supposed to believe he was saying "your an amazing player, you shouldn't be defending you should be attacking" etc etc.

Here is a video if you have not seen it btw.

well, tbf that was quite awesome.
Now for the draw, I just hope we get a draw that gives us low chances of meeting croatia or serbia in the knockout stages, because we never give those any respect and underperform. If they are on the other half of the draw (aka no meeting before the semifinals possible), I'd happily take a group with spain, costa rica and nigeria.

Outright hard imo. Although Germany has plenty of quality to top it still, it's about who gets the best 3rd team, and Sweden is up there.

But both teams cannot defend. Germany destroys teams that cannot defend.

Group A and H are weak but hard to predict.

Group B and G are the most clear groups.

Groups C, D, E, F have a clear #1 but 2nd place is up for grabs
