It's finally here. It's finally fucking here.
Forget the opening weekend of matches, or even the second weekend of matches after that. It's all bullshit. This is where the season starts, with the Champions League group stages draw.
There were some tasty ties thrown up in Monaco, with Pep Guardiola being forced to bring his new Manchester City team to the Nou Camp to take on Barcelona, while Real Madrid and Bayern Munich temporarily swapped rivals as they were drawn against Borussia Dortmund and Atletico Madrid respectively.
Leicester City were rewarded for topping the Premier League table as they took a top seed, but in the battle for North London things weren't so straight forward.
Arsenal will face a potential big gun in Paris Saint-Germain, while Spurs managed to avoid anyone too tricky despite coming into the draw as third seeds.
Of course, Arsenal fans weren't going to let such an easy draw pass them by.
