    I’d rather Real Madrid coz I’ve never seen them, seen all other Pot 1 bar Frankfurt and then the two worst teams from the other pots.

    Knowing our luck we probably get the toughest group but for first time qualify 2nd or top the group as it's the last year of the 4 group teams .think next year its 10 teams in a group going to be a nightmare for us that new system

    Quite fancy an easy group this time so I will plump for Real Madrid, Tottenham, Napoli and us. Some nice away days in Spain and Italy and and visit to Spurs nice new stadium which is close to where I live.

    Always say this but it genuinely baffles me why people say they want the likes of Madrid, Liverpool etc. Why would you want us to be in a group where we’ll get pumped in at least 4 games?

    Easiest possible group every single time please.

    for me its about the away days. Never been to Madrid. Loved Barcelona trip. haven't been to Napoli, been to Milan and Rome. Quite fancy seeing the new Spurs stadium and I have mates who are spurs fans, so some beers before and after could be good fun.

    I get that part of it but surely you'd rather we had a chance of getting some points and potentially getting into the knockout stages?

    Real Madrid, Liverpool and Dortmund would be some group, teams we've not played in a long time.

    Real Madrid as holders also are beatable and Dortmund as well. To get a group like that and get 5/6/7/8 points would be decent with last seasons finalists in it.

    I got this, but it's unrealistic as the huns won't be there.

    Knowing our luck will be

    Real Madrid
    Liverpool
    Dortmund
    Celtic

    but you need to be in it, but let’s be honest it will be arses handed to us on a plate in most games. Same if huns get there!

    Ac Milan Leipzig and Marseille please we. May actually do something with that group. Save the glamour ties for when we’ve made the knockout stages
    I have no interest in watching us get humiliated home and away off teams like Real Madrid. After the PSG games under Rodgers especially because it can easily happen.

    Easiest group possible please

    Not interested in glamour ties - rather not watch Paris, Madrid, Liverpool etc take 5 and 6 off of us

    Try and nick 3rd and see if we can put a run together in the Europa league

    Would like at least 2 teams from a nice city with a big away end so that I’m alright for getting tickets. Other than that, not too fussed. We’re likely nowhere near ready for it regardless of who we get. Salzburg look like the easiest team out of pot 3 yet I’d fancy them to give us a doing.

    Anyway.

    Mind you, I’d fancy Frankfurt and Porto out of pot 1 and Leipzig out of pot 2 before I’d take Salzburg out of pot 3.

    You know that type of luck out of pot 1/2 will be left for the Huns though

    Frankfurt
    Leipzig
    Marseille
    Celtic

    That would be the dream group for qualification. Leipzig couldn't even beat the huns, Frankfurt were pretty * in the final but we're playing against * too and French teams, bar PSG, are always there for the taking, I feel.

    Would rather avoid Man City and Liverpool. Can deal with getting humped by Spanish teams or that but not a team from England. Unbearable *.
