Few interesting groups and 2 of which stand out as one of the hardest:
Group A and Group B. Group A is like Last season's group H: Just swap out United for City, which still makes it a difficult group. However, I think Majority would say that the group of Death is Group B which is us. Initial thoughts, wow, this is gonna be a rough group. But I like it. Jurgen actually 'Laughed, pretty loud" as his reaction. But really, it's a tasty group to watch, not gonna lie. However, AC Milan did lose players this window, one of whom was perhaps the best Goalie in Serie A, Gianluigi Donnarumma. We are still stuck with Jan Oblak in Atletico so it'll still be again a challenge. Which leads to...
Group A is still a tough group, PSG heavily upgraded their squad. Now Messi's there, Wijnaldum's there, Sergio Ramos, Hakmi and now Gigi Donnarumma is there too! Expect PSG to dominate there or it'll be totally unbearable if PSG doesn't qualify. And Man City's countless spending also led to Jack Grealish who is also in form too.
That said, if you think about it, if we can dump any one of AC Milan or Atletico Madrid or even both, this will make our path subsequently a whole lost easier. With that said though, I really hope FSG really pulls off some transfers right now because this is insane, we're gonna have to keep playing heavy with our first team because there's no dead rubber match unless we happen to secure the group early.
