What the Champions League draw means for English clubs

Group F: Man City

Man city's draw could be the easiest that an English team has got. With Shakhtar, Lyon and Hoffenheim in their group, one should expect City to comfortably qualify for the knock out stages. The last year's runaway premier league champions look like the team to beat this season as City look to win the first European silverware in their history. City would also like to put their disappointing loss to Liverpool last year behind them and Guardiola would be hoping to lead his team to success this year and win his 3rd champions league title as a coach.

Many pundits have tipped Man City to go all the

way

Group H: Manchester United

Manchester United have been drawn in Group H which includes Juventus, Valencia and Young Boys football club. It can be called a relatively easy group for United with their match against Juventus being the most difficult one. But given United's recent performances, the red devils faithful won't be confident heading into the draw. United need to bounce back fast before the Champions League starts, or they would have to settle for yet another disappointing campaign in the champions league. One special thing about this draw is the return of Ronaldo to Old Trafford, the place where one could say his road to greatness began. Ronaldo was and is still heavily loved by United's supporters and the scene when he once again steps out on the Old Trafford pitch would be truly worth watching.

United's former number 7 will make his return to Old Trafford but this time for Juventus
