Champions League ML Scripting

[LG 360 bayb]

I finish my league season as champions or runners up, automatically qualifying for the CL group stages. The 1st round qualifiers are played out and then the CL Group Stages is drawn. Excitement builds, anticipating who I may draw. Well this hasn't been the case. For 3 seasons in a row now I've had the champions of the eredivisie and 2 sides from the other leagues A, whether they be licensed (Cagliari twice) or seemingly made up (Cantelisir Spor anyone?). Now I don't know if finishing 3rd or fourth will change this, willing to bet it won't, but it's doing a very good job at ruining my Master League Champions League experience. Anyone else had this? It's bloody annoying.

pretty much each season i will get inter milan and ACF fiorentina in the group stages its very boring

the rounds after that are usually random though i find

Oh yes the knockout stages are for me, when the fun begins but to play 6 games in the group stages of the CL against the same sides for 3 years in a row? It's just not on. GS are where you make your CL credentials. You should look forward to each game not "Oh! Ajax again".

I always get Barca and Kiyv.

I play in La Liga, and in CL I always end up with Barca or Real in the final - never an English or Italian side. And that's after meeting them in the Cup final too!

Yup I feel the same

And in the second round for the 2nd time in a row I get Athletico Madrid, borrrrringgg

I always get Man U in the semis too

I always get real madrid as ive been saying lately and usually dynamo kiev or helsinki

Well too play Barca, Real or Man Utd in the later stages is kind of too be expected. Them being some of the top sides in the Champions League, making it to the knockout rounds and playing them is almost guaranteed. Group stages though, getting same 3 sides year in year out is a different matter.

What about the FA Cup? It seems like I play Liverpool, Chelsea, or Man U in the first round every year since I started winning the League.

 

[jonslong]

yup same

I get Man U first round usually

 

[LG 360 bayb]

Should I win the league, usually I'll play the runners up and vice versa.
