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.

    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable

      I think the car analogy is more this: Left hand drive, basic commands on the left side of the infotainment screen. Right hand drive, basic commands on the right side of the infotainment screen. Granted, you're not swapping between the two often so it's doesn't really work. But it's to do with the proximity of you (your mouse, or the driver) to the controls.

      I mean, the old one was broken and so stupidly complex for many users, so I don't see that as a feasible option. A context menu needs to be simple to use, and for me the Windows 11 style actually worked really well for me, and many others. I used to have to scroll the damn context menu just to get to "file properties" in Windows 10. That was not a good experience, and I'm sure you'd agree. What they're trying to do is make it the best of both worlds, as clearly you'd prefer the Win10 style. I'm curious how they're going to do this.

      The "Show more options" has its place, as does the simpler context menu, but it should perhaps be a separate fly-out rather than relaunching the entire, old context menu. The old context menu was getting absurd in Windows 10. Often I'd have to make the context menu scroll just to get to "File properties" on my old laptop. Even without much installed, the amount of items was just too much. It's a context menu, not a "do all" menu. Making it configurable is fraught with challenges too, so I'm interested to see how Microsoft tackles this one.

      I don't hate the new menus, I am not a fan of the lack of features and how they went live when they clearly are not complete. The menu itself presents much better than the previous - but what's lacking (IMO) is: 1) Any kind of automated manipulation such as: "this goes on the new menu because you use this feature more often on this filetype" "this is rarely used and will fall back to the old menu" 2) Any kind of user manipulation such as: "a UI to add/remove/order items to the new menu"
