Liverpool have a potentially tricky group. And considering arsenals record in russia its pretty arrogant of you to pencil 3 points in from cska without a second thought

When I said boring, I meant that the first and second seeds will probably qualify from every group - as indicated by the following sentence.
The individual matches are good as always, as you'd expect most Champions League football to be. Yes, Barca/Chelsea will be a good encounter but I'd far rather see it in the knock-out stages instead, likewise Lyon/Real Madrid. I don't see Liverpool having too many problems. Galatasaray are only just back in the Champions League after a few years absence while Bordeaux hardly strike fear into anyone's heart. PSV will be a tricky fixture but not one I believe Liverpool need to fear.
As for Arsenal, can you really blame me for supporting my own team? As with Porto, I think that we'll get the job done over the two legs, just like we did against Real and Juventus last year.
