OReillyD36 311 Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 Should be very interesting to see who we get, hope we get one seemingly weak-er team from the 4th pot. Would be nice to see some fringe/youth get a shot at them like Zilina last season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomo 21,751 Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 Any-one got a list of the pots? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheva. 5,373 Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 Can't wait!Tough teams we could possibly draw - Ac milan, Valencia, Lille, Dortmund, Napoli.@Tomo-91: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2011%E2%80%9312_UEFA_Champions_League#Group_stage^ Not the full pots obviously, as there's still qualifying games to be played.

Madmax 9,219 Posted August 23, 2011 Author Share Posted August 23, 2011 Any-one got a list of the pots?The seedings will be determined once the playoffs are done with. We're certain to be in pot of first seeds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lionsden 4,689 Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 TBH UCL Group stage and 2nd round draws have been favorable to us in the last 5 years. and here's hoping that luck continues. 4 teams I hope we avoid at any stage of the competition except the final are Barca, Real Madrid, United and Porto.

Kieran. 6,317 Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 Wouldn't be nervous about Porto. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OReillyD36 311 Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 Napoli could potentially be very dangerous, and there's a chance they'll be in pot 4 assuming Villareal qualify I think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheva. 5,373 Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 Agree with Kieran. Porto already lost their coach, and their top goal scorer. Could probably still lose their best midfielder to us Only serious threat there will be Incredible Hulk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could probably still lose their best midfielder to us Only serious threat there will be Incredible HulkWouldn't be nervous about Porto.Yes they have lost Falcao and their manager but the core of the team remains the same. in addition to that the team spirit, squad depth and quality that made them a competitive force last season simply wouldn't varnish overnight. When we lost Mourinho and a couple of key players in 2007, we didn't exactly become a relegation threatened team did we? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madmax 9,219 Posted August 23, 2011 Author Share Posted August 23, 2011 Villareal - that's a team I wouldn't like. Very dangerous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest justin_3d Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 Napoli, Villareal, Shaktar, Dortmund and Porto will be a bitch! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magic weeds 446 Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 If Man City draw Real Madrid (pot1), Milan (pot2), City(pot3) then some other team, it would be great. lol Poor city in pot3. All non English teams will want to avoid Citeh, thats for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All non English teams will want to avoid Citeh, thats for sure.If City finish in a Real Madrid or Barcelona group then it will still be bad for others, cause you will get 2 good teams from there. City might be first or second, but who ever faces them second round will not be easy. We luck out cause we don't get to face no english team group stage or the next round till quarters.
