Haha if we end up in G then it’s got to be rigged surely?!
Well we didn't, and it wasn't.
Once the mancs were in the same side of the draw, we couldn't be in Group G. For tv purposes, no more than 2 sides from the same country can be in the same side of the group draw.
So there was only 3 groups available by then. A C or D. We got C. Could be better and could be worse. We all know about Napoli, PSG will be as close to playing City as it gets at this stage, while Red Star will be difficult at home.
In short, it's the usual kind of group a third seed can expect to get. Tough but manageable.
