The UEFA Champions League is regarded highly as possibly the greatest club competition in football. It is a stage that brings in together the worlds very best players and teams who are all looking to become to leave with the crown of European Champions.

In this tournament 32 teams will be drawn at random and split into 8 groups of 4, matches will be decided over home & away rules with the top 2 teams from each group progressing into the Knockout stages. Once we reach the knockout stages teams will play each over 2 legs up until the Final, away goals will take affect if necessary to determine a tie. All squads are fully up to date with the most recent transfer window.

All statistics, tables, fixtures & results will be posted and updated regularly in this thread. Good to everyone who takes part and do your best to get involved, your participation and interest is what gives me motivation to keep going with this tournaments.

@Des. Quick question about the pesmaster attributes: There's different versions of each player, for instance in that formation I posted most players appear to be a 'maxed out' version of that player, should we be looking at those guys or the ones with the lowest attributes?

PES Master allows you to look at players attributes as they potentially develop through the Master League in game, the beginning overall rating will be their actual rating.

You've probably picked Leverkusens best line up there anyway

[Devonfox1884]

I’ll take Sevilla on default settings please Des!
