    Seville. Gameiro and Banega gone, plus chance to get revenge in that stadium.

    Apparently I am the first to vote for City. I would just love to beat them, always good beating an English team but would be special to beat that little club with a big purse.

    I said Bayern for pot 1 so I'll go with Arsenal for pot 2. Would make for a tough but entertaining group.

    Feel like Napoli would hump us... hate playing Italian teams.

    Dortmund , if not then Leverkusen.

    No easy team here but i know many of our fans want Dortmund for the away game.

    Dortmund, have a big soft spot for their fans and the way they play. I think as a spectacle it would be amazing.

    Bayer Leverkusen, take away Bayern Munich and most German clubs are beatable

    Napoli are probably the weakest. Italian clubs are median these days, apart Juventus. Quite overrated in general.

    Then I'd say Porto or Sevilla. Porto are a wild card at the moment, they played ~ 100' in numerical superiority against Roma so no big conclusions can be made. Sevilla certainly have recent european pedigree but they aren't exactly known for superb football or domination of the game, and remains to be seen if they can show their strengths outside of the elimination rounds.

    IMO, german top5 clubs are some degrees above english, french, italian, portuguese or even spanish clubs (outside Real, Barcelona and Atleti). They just happen to lack many powerhouses. Even the UEFA ranking ilustrastes this, as Germany currently sits in second place behind Spain. So I'd personally avoid Bayer Leverkusen.

    Sevilla are one of the hardest Clubs to play in the World, I can't believe people think they are some sort of weak link. They would completely destroy us.
