The team I donā€™t want us to play in the KO stage is AtlĆ©tico so it would be better to play them in the group and avoid them until the quarter final at least.

Farmers league Champions!

Hopefully no trip to Russia or Ukraine.

I am predicting a trip to Portugal for us - would prefer one of the Lisbon teams because we had Porto quite often in the last few years.

Wouldnā€™t mind Benfica and Atlanta donā€™t look the team of previous years.

Likely we will get a tricky draw mind.

Malmƶ would be nice.

I can not see anything wrong with drawing Lille, Atalanta, and Malmo.

Itā€™s almost impossible for us to get a bad draw. The worst might be Bayern, Porto, Besiktas but in reality we should progress with ease no matter the draw.

Possibly the easiest draw would be Lille, Atalanta, Sheriff Tiraspol.

I would like to get those ā€¦ from Amsterdam again and this time giving them a proper beating. :laughing:

I do like the heritage type draws so one of Bayern, Real Madrid, Ajax, and AC Milan would be quite nice. What would that be, 30 European Cups among them? Surely a record for any group stage?

We canā€™t get real

Ah I just realised you didnā€™t mean for us

Amsterdam would be a good away trip.

Not sure the Mrs would agree

Itā€™s a shit hole full of tourists and (wannabe) Amsterdammers. The last group thinks that they are so far above the rest of the Netherlands that they should be a separate country.

The rest of the Netherland agrees with them, well the part of being a separate country ā€¦ :laughing:

Ye coz thatā€™s what I meant - I wanna go and mingle with the locals :rofl:

Is this going to be the draw thread as well or is there another thread for that?

Letā€™s keep the draw here. No need for another thread concerning CL.
