Champions League Group Stage

[aguero93:20]

Pots becoming clearer now. Pot 2 settled assuming we go through and only Ajax a doubt for Pot 3. If they lose then Borussia Moenchengladbach should take their place. Everyone else in Pot 4.

That's 6 on the list now.

If we manage to get through.

 

[Prestwich_Blue]

Pot 2: Atletico Madrid, Borussia Dortmund, Arsenal, City, Sevilla, Porto, Napoli, Bayer Leverkusen
Pot 3: FC Basel, Spurs, Dinamo Kyiv, Lyon, Ajax (or BMG if Ajax lose), PSV Eindhoven, Sporting Lisbon, Club Brugge
Pot 4 Borussia M'gladbach, Salzburg/Zagreb, Celtic, Monaco, Apoel Nicosia/FC Copenhagen, Besiktas, Ludogerets, Legia Warsaw, Rostov (if they beat Ajax)

Teams still to qualify in italics.

Assume we can't draw a team from pot 2?

 

[cleavers]

For nostalgic reasons for me, I'd love PSV Eindhoven to be in our group (if we get through obviously).

Hmmm. I'll let you off with this one, as it doesn't actually presume we're getting through.

So that's Roma, Dundalk, Villarreal, Plzen and Be'er Sheva in the same pot as the Rags, Dippers and Chelski.

I know I am on my 7th or 8th beer..... but how are Chelski in the Thursday night league?

Same pot as Liverpool.

When was the last time Portugal had 3 teams in the group stages? Portuguese football as a whole on a good run it seems.

I'm presuming we're getting through. There I said it.
Anybody who believes we could fuck this up should send their CVs to the BBC, BT sport or Talkshite. And the "34 more points" gerbils can join them.
We spend pages agonising about the twunts in the media doing us down and this place is full of it! It may have been a joke seven, eight or nine years ago but now it's just repetitive bollox.
We've spent one season in the third di-fucking-vision yet some posts are written as though we'll soon be playing Prestwich Heys or Radcliffe Borough. We've spent over 80% of our existence in the top division yet anybody thinking we can't throw away a five goal lead is castigated by wannabee Colin Schindlers.
We are Manchester City not Lincoln fucking City. We'll still fuck up on occasions, and we might even lose tomorrow night. But there is no fucking way we will lose badly enough to join the rags in the Thursday League.
Probably.
