Football wise Lyon, trip and adventure wise Atlanta

I am veering toward "trip and adventure"

I have been all over southern Italy but never north of Rome.

Italy is my favourite country so Bergamo here I come :dance:

A toughish group, but a good learning curve for this young squad we've got. Do well in this and will bode well for the future.

Lyon and Atalanta both have 'decent mobs' both up there as the best in there respected countries. Limassol has potential aswell but none on the scale of split

By "decent mobs" do you mean the natives are fine upstanding citizens.....or that they are up for a ruck and are a bit tasty on it :blush:

So are people happy with that,just need to be top 2 to get through,do we think we will do that

I think it's a great group mate. Really good quality games to enjoy at Goodison and easily reached away days for the boys. Reckon we'll have a fantastic following to all those games.

Probably the hardest group out of all of them, but that was the same last time which we topped with a game to spare. Reckon the fans of Lyon and Atalanta will be more concerned about playing us than we are about them.

Just had a mooch at the other groups, can't tell you how relieved I am we didn't get drawn into group B (Kyiv, Partizan and some Albanian side - we would have taken the place of young boys in that group)
