Chelsea won the premiership, why did they not get seeded?

The seeders where chosen on Historical winnings and stuff like that and since Chelsea is not a Team with good Historical results they got into the 2nd group

just some crazy UEFA (or FIFA for that matter) ranking rules :p

I think it has something to do with progress in previous seasons in the Champions League/UEFA rankings etc??? Not too sure...

Good draw though, some interesting games coming up!!

Galatasary away for Liverpool will be fun!

It is to do with the UEFA coefficients. Which is basically how well a team has performed in Europe in the past five year's, and since Chelsea have not done that well in the Champions League then they are not in the top seed's.

To see the coefficients click here.

Anyway, the Chelsea v Barca tie will be a good game, especially as this will be the third year in a row the team's have met. I wonder if the Galatasaray v Liverpool match will be at the Ataturk Stadium :p?

It would be nice if a poll was added like last year, and this topic pinned :).

I like the Group A draw. Barcelona will most lilely top the group. I still cannot believe AC Milan is allowed to enter this years CL with the match fixing scam they had against them.

I agree. AC .Milan are the Italian team I have liked for 30 years, my nan is from Milan, however

it's wrong they got a pitch and it seems the Italian FA have over looked this.

      They themselves used AI slop to convert its C++ codebase to Rust. But I do agree with their concerns.

    • Microsoft resumes forced Copilot app installation on some Windows PCs

      By Usama Jawad96 · Posted

      Microsoft resumes forced Copilot app installation on some Windows PCs by Usama Jawad Late last year, Microsoft planned to begin the automatic installation of the Microsoft 365 Copilot app on certain Windows PCs. However, in March 2026, it disabled this process due to a technical issue and informed customers that it would let them know when it would resume. It seems like that was only a temporary respite, as the Redmond tech giant has started the forced installation of the app on eligible devices. In an update on its Message Center for IT admins, Microsoft has informed customers that it is resuming the automatic installation of the Microsoft 365 Copilot on commercial Windows PCs that have Microsoft 365 apps already installed. What this means is that if you have Microsoft Office apps like Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and more installed on your Windows PC through a Microsoft 365 license, you'll likely see the Microsoft 365 Copilot app pop up in your Installed Apps section soon, too. Fortunately, IT admins do have some control over this rollout. If they choose to opt out, devices in their tenant won't automatically get the dreaded Copilot app. However, phased rollout via feature flags has already begun and is expected to be completed by the end of June: Feature Flag1: started Jun 4, expected to finish June 10 Feature Flag2: expected to start on June 11, expected to finish on June 17 MSGraph schema rollout: expected to start on June 18, expected to finish on June 24 Feature Flag3: expected to start on June 25, expected to complete by July 1st Microsoft hasn't detailed what the process is to toggle the feature flags in its Message Center, and its public support page does not seem to mention it yet either. The Redmond tech giant has encouraged IT admins to let users know beforehand so they aren't caught by surprise to see a new app seemingly installed without manual interaction or their consent. Users who already have the app installed or are based in the European Economic Area (EEA) are unaffected by this move, which Microsoft has understandably flagged as a "major change".
