so that's Guardiola, Thiago, Javi Martinez, Reina, Bernat and now Xabi Alonso. What's "mia san mia" in Spanish?

Yeah, well Thiago, Martinez and Reina probably wont play at all.

I'm not a super huge fan of this. I like Xabi and hes a good player, but hes well past his best. He had a miserable World Cup and was basically being phased out at Real.

Bayern should have paid Toni Kroos.

As for the draw, I'll take it. City should be used to getting beaten by Bayern by now, its almost a tradition at this point.

Liverpool stand a really good chance of advancing. I doubt they beat Real to win the group but Ludogarets should be interesting but Basel can always surprise.
