And finally, the groups are decided!
Group A: Manchester United, Shakhtar Donetsk, Bayer Leverkusen, Real Sociedad
Group B: Real Madrid, Juventus, Galatasaray, Copenhagen
Group C: Benfica, Paris St-Germain, Olympiakos, Anderlecht
Group D: Bayern Munich, CSKA Moscow, Manchester City, Viktoria Plzen
Group E: Chelsea, Schalke, Basel, Steaua Bucharest
Group F: Arsenal, Marseille, Borussia Dortmund, Napoli
Group G: Porto, Atletico Madrid, Zenit St Petersburg, Austria Vienna
Group H: Barcelona, AC Milan, Ajax, Celtic
It's looking nigh on impossible for Celtic in Group H, and Arsenal will have to be on top of their game if they want to go through ahead of Dortmund or Napoli . Marseille are no slouches either.
It should be fairly straightforward for Chelsea and Man Utd, and it could have been a lot worse for City too. Second place in Group D surely isn't too much to ask?
Thoughts?
