Why is Man Utd an option in the poll?
They have absolutely no chance to win the CL.

Getting through the group will be difficult enough.

Liverpool now has also worse chances to get the title. Without VVD and no good replacememt in their defense, they will definitely have their problems.

What a goal by Rashford!

Well deserved win by Man United. PSG never looked threatening. Neymar was a ghost out there.

Lol, I'm shocked we took three points from PSG.

BVB is so atrocious.
1-3 against an italian team. Hopefully they get a real coach.

CBS has wonderful extended highlights. Definitely enjoying their coverage of the UCL compared to Fox and Turner here in the US.

Do you think they will qualify to the next round?

Wonder what magik thinks about Juve's garbage man jerseys.

OT: DAZN has it and the EPL rights for Canada. I finally bought a sports subscription service because of that. And tbh, I dig it. Easily stream footie on any of my devices.

Another useless game by Jovic for Real Madrid. Even against Donezk he couldn't score.
I think Real will try a move next winter.

An odd game for us at Inter.

First roughyl 60 minutes I'd describe it as us "trying hard" but ultimatly just not good enough and always trying to built up using our full backs who were already under pressure and either gave the ball away or passed it into no mans land.

After Inter took the lead we showed a good reaction and took the lead just to give up the tying goal in the 90th minute.

Though, overall a win would've been too much for us and it sucks that Real can't do their homework.

Next fixtures in Group B are:
Donezk vs Inter
Gladbach vs Real

Just give Bayern the trophy now. They are so far ahead of the top teams it's not even funny. And how awful did Real Madrid look today?!?! Some shocking performances by a number of teams for matchday 1.

Not just taking the points, but looking by far the better team in the process. PSG had some chances, largely thanks to some flourishes of individual brilliance from Mbappe, but De Gea and the United defence were equal to them.

Tuanzebe looked miles better than Maguire out there, in his CL debut no less. Telles looks like he was born in a United shirt. Some encouraging signs for United fans after a rough start.
