It may be my natural mistrust of all things UEFA but the draw always looks stage managed and a bit contrived.

Anyone remember how long it took for fixture dates to be confirmed after the draw last year?

In the new format, there are zero benefits to being in pot 1.

Just to add onto this 12pm Sat is absolute latest (probs will mean that is when it is!).
UEFA have said if they are releasing earlier than that they will put it out to media & socials 30/45 minutes before they come out to give fans heads up.

1st round is Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. Given we play both Sundays either side, good chance we’ll be on an Thursday!
Also, Kairat and Bodo Glimt have to be away for their last group game.

Even the so called easy group looks pretty difficult

Kev and Galatasaray at home please!
Leverkusen or Frankfurt away.
Leverkusen or Frankfurt away.
In a weird way having us (Arsenal) in Pot 2 gives the pot 1 English teams a huge advantage as we are for sure the best team in pot 2 but none of the English teams can draw us so our job is effectively to cause massive problems for your other pot 1 rivals. Hope we get PSG and Dortmund from Pot 1

Champions League final: Location, date, why is kick-off at 5pm?
BBC Sport's Ask Me Anything team look at why the Champions League final has been moved to a 17:00 BST kick-off and where it is taking place.

Can't wait for the draw.
30 mins montage of last year's tournament.
Speccy bloke and fit bird dressed for a restaurant date appear. Explain the draw for 10 mins.
Another montage
Fit bird introduces 'legend'

Embarrassing 5 mins interview. Before next 'legend' is introduced

Speccy bloke explains the draw again as we've all forgotten.
Draw starts.
City look like they are getting Kazakhstan pig farmers at home. Speccy says this can't happen because of some local bollocks which means it has to be played away.
Liverpool get another set of fixtures that guarantee them 'winning' the league
Arsenal get their average team draw
Us and the barcodes get what look like games of death and a trip to the arse end of Europe
Spurs get a spursy set of fixtures where they'll beat Real Madrid and lose to Pafos
We all forget Chelsea are there until they are drawn out.

Fucking hell, been reading on a few sites loads of teams actually want us this year! From the team to avoid to the team to face in two years,
