That's not a UEFA ranking, and the coefficient is based on the last 5 years (and Arsenal have not done well in that time)

Only playing 8 games

Girona was 100% an option and unsurprising they drew an English team given the number of English and Spanish sides in the earlier pots.

Not really a release date precedent for a fourth kit but think champions league starts that week so could be linked to that.

Villa better off in this format in theory as they get to play same number of "weaker" sides. We have a similar chance of getting those opponents.

Yes, and probably quite likely as we're in a pot with two Spanish sides (who can't play Girona). Suspect the football gods will have us play them, Leipzig play Salzburg, and United play Nice in the Europa League.

We will play two teams from each pot and we'll play one of those at home and one of those away. We won't play an English team.

And in the queue for Oasis tickets

No, most likely Saturday morning by the sound of it. The draw will tell us who we play home and who we play away, but not the order/dates.

The draw is complicated but to summarise: You will play two teams from each pot, one at home and one away. The teams you play and whether you play at home or away is determined by a computer. There is no group, all 36 teams are in one league. If you finish top 8, you qualify for the last 16...

Oasis tickets likely to be on sale around the time the fixtures come out for this. Likely to be an expensive and stressful morning.

Thank you Sven, RIP

My previous subscription has just run out, generally quite reliable although occasionally struggled for 3pm games when presumably a lot of people were trying to access the same channel. Before I renew, wondered if anyone has one that they recommend that they use to watch the usual sports...

Suspect it's the away trips he (and myself) is more interested in.

There's no group, we can play them in the league stage. Depending on where we both finish in the league it's possible we could play them again in the following round as well

I've already posted this in the thread in the main forum, but there is a simulator here Just ran it and we got Real Madrid, Juve, Dinamo Zagreb, and Stuttgart at home, and then Dortmund, Benfica, RB Salzburg, and Slovan Bratislava away.

I'd say Gala will turn that round with the second leg at home but I'd agree with the others

Yes. No benefit in being in pot 1 - everyone plays two teams from each pot, one at home and one away.

That's incorrect, it will draw the eight teams we play. Two from each pot, and we'll play one at home and one away (also determined by the computer). There are no groups. Our eight fixtures will be different to everyone else's (and theirs different too) ie if we draw Bayern, the other seven...

Very possibly. Just think it's another issue of the new competition. Previous incarnation used to take into account teams playing in "winter venues" to ensure places that are going to be dangerously cold would be away from home for the final match in December. Think they removed that a few years...
