I really hope you’re the @Nikola for City comments…
Totally different situation. We got 9 points early, almost guaranteeing the top spot. Then we heavily used youngsters for rotation.
#uefachampionsleague #UCL
Home and Away opponents for teams from Pot 1-4
- All 36 teams will be in a single league
- Top 8 teams will qualify automatically to knockouts (RO16)
- 16 teams finishing 9-24th will play 8 playoffs
- (RO16) Top 8 teams will play the 8 playoffs winner
- Followed by QF, SF and Final
Glad we added quality and quantity across the field. And all the youngsters are also still here.
We probably get two surprises in the round of 16 but the rest will all be the usual suspects.
That’s when the real tournaments starts.
This format is about ensuring that the main clubs which draw money get through to the last 16.
WTF is happening. I wasn’t prepared for this.
Do the 9-24 finishing teams play home and away or only home at higher seed?
Crappy league cup draw, crappy CL draw.
Guess Arne and his men are just gonna have to get it done the hard way, and tbh the feeling will be evermore satisfying.
2 legged play off, so yes home and away like we’re accustomed to.
Does 9th play 24th, 10th play 23rd and so on?
we will see !
Anyone see who Man U got?
Do you see us being able to play youngsters in the CL? Especially against the opponents we have?
So much moaning and negativity in here. We’re back in the CL ffs. Lots of great games to look forward to. I can’t wait!

Lots of great stories in UCL draw for us.
I hate the way everything these days is reduced to “stories” (not talking about you personally, btw).
The “storylines” pushed by the media are further evidence of the dumbing down of modern society, and football is no exception.
Where did you get that footage of me?
Edit: An excellent film, and I’m watching it now, thanks to your gif. Hate the way Mr Kowalski softens in it, though. Bloody snowflake.
