Nah, for me as a fan you'd have spent the last 4 months dreaming a day out at the bernabau or the nou camp or allianz, would be brilliant if they don't get it they instead get some ropey eastern European game that they struggle to travel to and no one gives two shits about Then get knocked out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two of those teams are within 2 hours of me so yes Like I said if I was a "rival" fan I'd want us to get Astana Edited August 31, 2023 by villa4europe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BleedClaretAndBlue Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 I reckon they can beat all 3 especially at SJP. Hope they finish rock bottom though of course Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaAlex Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 Id be delighted if I was them it's not like they're going to win the thing. I'd love for us to play against such teams. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rbcuk Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 This draw is good, as they will have to play the best lineup every game to try and get anything from each game, no chance of rotation in this group, which hopefully hits the league form 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demitri_C Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 What a draw couldnt have happened to a nicer club. Bet they moaning how everyone is against them eith this draw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJBOB Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 Draw isn't bad for them. Think they honestly would have struggled more with some of the other teams. PSG, Dortmund will come at them. Haven't seen enough of Milan to see how they play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 Yeah I'd love that if I was a geordies, they're not going to win it so what do you actually celebrate in may when you finish top 4? Games exactly like those 3 top nights at home and then 3 very doable away games That's exactly what villa should be aiming for and buzzing about, it's not necessarily about winning it's about the famous nights and big games vs big teams, they've got exactly what the CL is all about 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
