What is YOUR favourite memory watching the Champions League… ASIDE from the club you support. Mine’s this 👇

lee.connor11d ago

Mine is from the ITV days, either when Ronaldo (R9) walked into Old Trafford and owned it, or when Rooney made his CL debut and scored that hat trick. The 99 final was great to witness as well at the time. Not putting 05 Liverpool, they got lucky.

george.patten11d ago

Mine is that Tottenham City second leg the year Spurs made the final. Frantic start and drama right to the last second

The Camp Nou has been confirmed as the venue for the 2029 Champions League final. What are your thoughts?

Which stadium did you want to host the Champions League final?

eoin19d ago

I think the work theyve done to renovate, as annoyingly long as It has took, could change your mind. Ive always thought It was a magical stadium but maybe thats because of a certain someone 👇

callum_boyle20d ago

Given its prestige it feels kind of weird that it’s hosting it. Obviously it’ll be done by then but always felt like it’s a bit overhyped as a stadium

After tonight's results, matchday one of the Champions League is complete ✅ Which team has impressed you the most?

donaghcorby199724d ago

Anyone else surprised how good Real Betis were? Troy Parrott looks great!

jackdrury24d ago

Not to sound like a hipster but Como were so much fun. Going to be my team in the UCL this season with Chelsea not being there

brogan24d ago

I’m still really struggling to get behind this format. What on earth are those fixture last night? Appreciate there’ll always be some weaker sides in the competition, but those fixtures (barring Bayern) could all easily be Europa or even Conference League games

Como are loving life in their first-ever Champions League game 🔥 How far can they realistically go?

seanfisher24d ago

Obviously depends on the draw but I could see a rogue quarter-final run for Como

daviescallum4224d ago

Fabregas surely doesn’t stay there forever, he’s done so so well

badger.prodder24d ago

To be honest and purely with a pair of blue tinted glasses Como. Early days I know but a good result tonight

Wednesday's Champions League games threw up some BIG scorelines, but which one stands out to you and why? 🤔

daviescallum4224d ago

Odegaard unlocked this season it seems 👀

vatsal24d ago

Barcelona looking scary as usual until somebody does them on the counter in a knockout game.

camerondesc125d ago

I’m surprised Liverpool won tbf. Really thought they’d struggle against a low block.

Lamine Yamal and Raphinha looked unstoppable as Barcelona hammered Feyenoord in the Champions League 🤝 Name a better duo and tell us why you've picked them...

daviescallum4224d ago

Tyrique George & Thierno Barry?

vatsal24d ago

Best duo but can't see them winning it. Some level of pragmatism is needed to win and they will just get done on the counter in a knockout game.

kilham.max25d ago

There isn’t one - plain and simple. An absolutely lethal duo that will likely carry Barcelona to UCL glory this season.

The first batch of results from MW1 in the Champions League are in! 🔥 What stood out for you?

peter.lynch25d ago

Villa will be buzzing they’re finally finding the back of the net, important win that one at a tricky venue!

kilham.max25d ago

Troy Parrot of course! So pleased for him after early career struggles.

jonathan.gorrie26d ago

Troy Parrott, what a man. Decent win for Madrid. Bouaddi looks class for City

Man Utd's return and Madrid's heavyweight clash with Inter! It's a big week of Champions League action, but what game are you looking forward to the most? 🤔

Give us your reasons below! 👇

jameslloyd14.jl26d ago

Still feels wrong seeing Champions League games on a Thursday

markmarston26d ago

Liverpool Atleti could be 🔥

seanfisher26d ago

Rogue shout but Como vs Leipzig could be a goal fest

It's fair to say that Liverpool fan @eoin isn't moved by the Reds' draw.

Kevin De Bruyne and Rodri will face Man City in the Champions League. Who do you think is the bigger club legend?

dantowen8195138d ago

Has to be De Bruyne. He is the face of an entire era for me

eoin38d ago

De Bruyne clears, guy was Mr Man City

george.patten38d ago

De Bruyne by some way imo.

Here's every Premier League team's Champions League fixtures. Who do you think got the hardest draw? And why? 👀

harveyleonard9938d ago

It’s nice to be an Arsenal fan in 2026 because there was no draw that would be too scary. Not the easiest this year but everyone seems beatable with this team

dantowen8195138d ago

That Man United draw scares me 😂Villarreal give me horrible Déjà vu and I suspect Como will surprise people. Still, a lovely away day

eoin38d ago

Liverpool have a pretty easy run, which i dont love. Boring battles with Atleti and Inter

TalkingPoints user @jonny is confident after seeing Man Utd's draw!

james.brooke38d ago

True, nobody as good as Hull… honestly to say this after the weekend they had, some brass neck, fair enough!

Here's Aston Villa's games! It's fair to say they're difficult.

dantowen8195138d ago

How many times have they played Brugge already 😂

james.brooke38d ago

Haaland facing them all on his own?

dancoombs38d ago

At least Villa don’t have to play Brighton

Fun fact! Arsenal have NEVER lost to Real Madrid in the Champions League.

That record will be tested one again this season...

eoin38d ago

Im sure Real Will be desperate to prove themselves in the champions league

dancoombs38d ago

Jose has a very strong record v Arsenal

james.brooke38d ago

Now tell us how many times they’ve played them

United fans: What are your thoughts on the draw?

Some tricky games here...

vatsal38d ago

Should seal top eight with that draw, let alone qualification.

dancoombs38d ago

A few difficult games in there, but I’d be very disappointed if we fail to get though

jameslloyd14.jl38d ago

Nahh gotta be happy with that! Welcome back to the big leagues… Is this United’s first time with the new format?

Man Utd will face Bayern Munich! That's a proper heavyweight tie that.

jonny38d ago

Only one ‘easy’ game in our draw there, but not a single game I’d be nervous for. Last 16 here we come!

The Gervinho derby

Liverpool's fixtures have been confirmed! Is a trip to Napoli on the list of dream away days Reds fans?

dantowen8195138d ago

Only a shame they couldn’t welcome Greenwood to Anfield

james.brooke38d ago

Fairly nice on paper, but we had the same pot one teams last season, would’ve loved something different. We never play Barca for example

jameslloyd14.jl38d ago

That’s a very very good draw. Should be aiming for a top two finish there!

Man City have a very tricky fixtures list. Could they struggle to get out of the league phase...?

jameslloyd14.jl38d ago

Problem is with this format they can lose two and still cruise through

Here's Real Madrid's fixtures in full. What's the game you're most looking forward to?

leeclarke050838d ago

There's your table toppers...

vatsal38d ago

Mourinho will relish the prospect of beating down Roma

dancoombs38d ago

Jose facing Inter with Real is one to watch

🙂Add a comment…Open Discussion

A hard draw for Man City! They're set to face PSG, Barcelona and Napoli.

vatsal38d ago

Can totally see them finish outside top eight, then anything can happen in knockouts. Maresca sacked before the end of the season me thinks👀

Real Madrid have drawn Arsenal! Massive game.

dancoombs38d ago

That will be great game!

vatsal38d ago

Madrid have a dream draw, as easy as it can possibly get in this new format City, on the other hand...OOOF

Anyone else longing for the return of the group stages right now?

dancoombs38d ago

I think this new system is far easier to qualify from…

jonny38d ago

It was a much simpler method, this way takes 10 minutes of explanations 🥲

Thierry Henry is being joined by David Villa to do the draw (which will hopefully start soon). At their peak, who was better? Henry or Villa?

dancoombs38d ago

Villa was a class act, top striker

james.brooke38d ago

Henry was better, but Villa was some player. Always wanted him at Liverpool, looked like it might be on at one point but never happened
