    I'd love to get Real in the groups. Can't wait to see the difference between the reception Ronaldo will get when he comes back to OT to what Tevez will get :D

    Other than that I'm not really pushed, as long as we avoid Rubin Kazan. We can do without that trip thankyouverymuch.

    Wow there are some very tough possible draws there. I think the key is to avoid the really tough teams in pot three. Would really hate to get Atletico in, they have looked very good. I see alot of people are tipping Wolfsburg as one to avoid, can't say I've heard much about them, are they that good?

    I think people are overhyping them a bit. They won the German league. Big deal! I think people are more looking to avoid them because they are in pot 4 on account of not being in Europe much. People just want an easier ride.

    I'd like to call out all the conspiracy theorists crackpots who come out every year and say it's rigged. Come on then folks, what's the rigged draw this time, let's compare it to the real thing.
    god ive never seen anyone say its rigged!! of course its "rigged" in a sense, what do these people think to co-effiecient and pots are for?!!!! and of course when teams from the same country qualify they cant play each other so usually leaves not much flexibilty in the draw!

    If God exists, Man-u will get Madrid and ronaldo will dive to get the winning peno.
    Actually, it would be better if that happens in a knock-out game

    I didn't see a thread for this. If there is already one I apologise and this can be deleted/merged.


    The draw is on tomorrow. It will be live on SSN starting at 4:30.

    Here are the pots:

    POT 1: Barcelona, Chelsea, Liverpool, Manchester United, Milan, Arsenal, Sevilla, Bayern

    These teams in bold are practically certain to get through irrespective of who they are drawn against. The other 3 should qualify provided they are not in the Group of Death (there is always one). The thing is teams cannot play opposition from the same country which is a major advantage for Milan, Sevilla and Munich.

    I think it could be a Barcelona and Chelsea final this year (draw permitting). Bordeaux could be lively outsiders.

    Thankyou detective obvious.

    and Yes there are people who say It's rigged(apart from the obvious stuff Mr Detective obvious pointed out). Just need to look at this thread or any previous CL draw topics from previous years.

    Think it was a quarter final draw or Semi final draw.

    Not exactly that hard to guess right.

    I'd like to see all 8 group stages to be leaked. But it won't be as the probability is too big for someone to create a random topic on a random forum titled "CL draw leaked"and get it exactly right.

    No, wasn't it some Liverpool fansite that had the complete group draw?

    It 'started' at 4.30 but draw should be just after 5. RTE aren't starting the stream until 4.57 to save us the mundaneness I reckon.

    They're giving out the 2008/09 Uefa club football awards too right? I reckon

    GK: van der Sar
    DF: Pique
    MD: Xavi
    FW: Messi

    Overall player: Messi.

    I'm liking this more than the Europa League Draw.

    Hot chicks always make the boring bits go by quicker.

    It was like when they got Heidi Klum for the World Cup Draw.
