    In all competitions they have only lost 5 times in the last 63 games.
    Unfortunately for them they have lost their last 3 games

    I'd actually enjoy Liverpool. They can't defend and both teams will just attack. It would be a cracking game to watch.

    Then I'd quit like 2 other teams who have complete and utter collapses :56:

    Those are the probabilities of those teams getting through to the group stages. Rolling them all up gives a 56% chance, so basically there's a 44% chance that at least one of them will get papped oot and catapult us into Pot 3. Rijeka by far the most likely to do us a favour, but Nice, Basaksehir and Hoffenheim all still have around a 5-10% chance of progression

    Olympiacos' last-minute winner made me a few bob, hopefully they get turned over in Croatia.

    Would like an EPL team as well, any chance to blow smoke up their arses is great. Spartak Moscow, Rijeka, generic franchise from the bestest league in the whole world. Top the group, get another generic franchise in the last 16 and Ukraine better start preparing for another invasion.....

    Exactly how I see it.

    Although you can never beat facing the big boys, we've had plenty of it over the years.

    I just want one year where we have a real good chance and hopefully this is it. A group like Leicesters from last year ideally.

    Frank Ribery has said that all his Bayern team-mates and him want Celtic , so they can sample the unique CL nights at Paradise. As a Bayern fan I want that too.

    Just realised Barca will be in Pot 2 this year :party048:, which means thankfully we will get a Pot 1 team whom we haven't played in a while. Quite fancy Bayern or Chelsea from Pot 1, would like to dish out some revenge to Cunte after he put us out Last 16 a few years ago.

    Aye fair enough, as this was their first ever CL qualifying run I thought they'd * it in the Play Off, but that's a great result away to Olympiakos and their formidable at home (Except when they're playing Aberdeen haha). Still think the Greeks will sneak through though.

    Would rather BVB personally but a wee trip to Munich would be ideal I suppose if we have to draw them..

    I'd love to draw Bayern if they weren't one of the best teams in Europe...

    You know some people could be getting carried away after last night...

    Not * me that's for sure. Couldn't give a * who we get in the GS they are getting arsed home and away. Barca in last 16, pumped, Atletico last 8, horsed, Juventus last 4, jackhammered and then a wee 2-0 in the final against Real, so no one questions we're ruining European football by shafting everyone all the time.

    But back to my original point lets keep a level head and hopefully no scare in Astana.

    Only 2-0 in the final? Behave yourself.
