It's not the worst. We don't have a big name, but all 4 teams are leveled, which may lead a sort of balance among the 4 teams. All of them have possibilities of making to the elimination stage.
Olympiakos, as an example, as typical, standard group. A big team, which is Atlético. Juventus with a little more experience and more quality on their roster when compared to Olympiakos's roster, which is better than Malmo's.
Sincerely, I don't know which is better. A group like yours or a group like ours.

Nice group

I think it's a tough group. There are no clearly weak teams in there: Monaco is a good team, the same can be said of Leverkusen and Zenit.

We can either go through easily or just screw up just as easily.

Tough group. What scares me out is that we are in the end of the month and we still do not have certains about the team. We need a striker, or two, a midfielder and we do not know if Enzo will leave or not. So many things to do in such a few days.

Now, with a good team, playing at home, we should be able to win every game. But if we don't fill our problems we problably will end the champions league with a bad sensation.

Watched the game. Was a little confused why Samaris was not given some minutes so he can get used to the stadium/fans/style etc..  I know Samaris is 100% fit, he played the summer friendlies and was training until the day he left for Lisbon.

Seems JJ believed those in the bench were not good enough..

Many of us asked ourselves the same things. Also, Júlio César was supposed to start today and not Artur.

Shows what a crappy GK and a lack of a good striker do.

He was basically trying to send a message to the board - "I need players, the squad isn't good enough".
It's ridiculous. He could and should've won this.

Putting Artur once again instead of Júlio César was pure unprofessionalism.

[Faliro]

Now I have seen Artur play 90 minutes, I say Karnezis is miles better.

Sad but true. Pathetic goalkeeper.

In Italy they say he's a good talent, I think he can do well
