Nath, you can have my ticket for that game if you want.



Hmm. Might well take you up on that. emoticon Assuming you can get one. Let's hope you don't have a repeat of last year!

I reckon we can qualify from that group. I don't see PSV as particularly tough. Marseille beat us at Anfield last year, but we were playing rubbish (much like at the moment). Beat them comfortably away. I actually think Atletico may finish in the top two in our group (along with us of course).

So the draw for the group stages takes place in around 20 minutes, here's the pots...

Pot one
MANCHESTER UNITED
CHELSEA
LIVERPOOL
Barcelona
ARSENAL
Lyon
Inter Milan
Real Madrid

Pot two
Bayern Munich
PSV Eindhoven
Villarreal
AS Roma
FC Porto
Werder Bremen
Sporting Lisbon
Juventus

Pot three
Marseille
Zenit St Petersburg
Steaua Bucharest
Panathinaikos
Bordeaux
CELTIC
Basel
Fenerbahce

Pot four
Shakhtar Donetsk
Fiorentina
Atletico Madrid
Dynamo Kiev
CFR Cluj
Aalborg
Anorthosis Famagusta
Bate Borisov

I'm hoping for Lyon from pot 2, Bucharest, Basle or Bordeaux from pot 3 and either CFR Cluj, Aalborg, Anorthosis Famagusta ,Bate Borisov from pot 4.

Those last 4 teams are very random. Famagusta beat Olympiakos though so should be quite handy.




Famagusta, isn't that a dead city in Cyprus, how have they got a team?

You might want to reassess the last two given Zenit's performance so far tonight.

To be fair their opposition tonight is pretty poor. They may still struggle.

Not sure if you're joking there or not. I think Zenit will cause a surprise and go through from their group.

Well I was kind of joking. They may well come through that group. It is very close to call between Zenit, Real & Juve. It wouldn't surprise me if there was less than 2 point separating the three of them come December.

Nice effort from Scholes tonight!!!

What a moron!

That would make me smile a lot!



 emoticon That would have been an impossible draw anyway. Madrid and Villareal are both Spanish.
Sorry if someone has already pointed that out.
