Didn't win their leagues, so yeah, fair enough, but the Pot 2 teams for this year's group stage draw make for one hell of a list - Real Madrid, Barcelona, PSG, Juventus, Sevilla, Liverpool, Manchester United, Dortmund.

Pot 1 is strong, obviously, but less fearsome looking - Manchester City, Chelsea, Sporting Lisbon, Bayern Munich, Villareal, Atletico Madrid, Inter, Lille.

Other pots still taking shape, but Ajax (3) and Milan (4) are floating in the lower pots ready to create a 'group of death'.

We could get Manchester City, Real Madrid, Ajax and Milan. Could also end up with a group of Lille, Sevilla, Zenit and Wolfsburg.

Champions League group stage draw this evening. As above, Pot 2 is hilarious - as the Guardian notes, 'because they won bugger all last season.' Milan wandering around in Pot 4 too thanks to their recent rubbishness.

Pot 1 Chelsea, Villarreal, Bayern Munich, Manchester City, Atletico Madrid, Inter Milan, Sporting CP, Lille.
Pot 2 Real Madrid, Barcelona, Juventus, Manchester United, Paris Saint-Germain, Liverpool, Sevilla, Borussia Dortmund.
Pot 3 Porto, Ajax, Shakhtar Donetsk, Leipzig, Salzburg, Benfica, Atalanta, Zenit.
Pot 4 Besiktas, Dynamo Kyiv, Club Brugge, Young Boys, AC Milan, Malmo, Wolfsburg, Sheriff Tiraspol.

Group of Death: Bayern Munich, Real Madrid, Ajax, AC Milan.
Group of soft pillows and unicorns: Lille (who look awful this season), Sevilla, Shakhtar Donetsk, Sheriff Tiraspol.

Tiraspol are the Moldovan champions, the first Moldovan team into the group stages of the Champions League - and fair play, they've got through eight matches to reach this stage, and beat Dinamo Zagreb 3-0 on aggregate to seal that place.

Lewandowski is getting a bit ridiculous, another brace last night. Messi/Ronaldo levels of ridiculous. Six games this season, he has scored in every one - ten goals in total. Since the start of the 2019-20 season he has a silly 113 goals in 93 games in all competitions. 19 assists too.

He doesn't look like much to worry about then all of a sudden there he is from 10 yards out sticking it in the net. His movement in the box is better than any other striker out there, he is just always in the right place at the right time.

Bit of a smash and grab at the end of the 1st half by Milan at Anfield. They've been battered and should have been 2 or 3 goals down, but go in ahead. Reminds me of 2 goals at the end of the 1st half we scored at West Ham several years ago.
