    Ah UEFA... the closest organisational equivilent to a Banana Republic going.

    More to do with making sure two teams who are close distance wise are not playing at home on the same night for security reasons

    Pretty farsical that certain teams cant go in certain groups. And as for the seeding, how are City ranked 2nd seeds? Surely given their history in European football, they should be 3rd or 4th?


  • Site Banned Posts: 26,456 ✭✭✭✭Nuri Sahin


    So Dortmund can go to A, C or D :s

    Scratch that. I'm lost lol.

    Can't understand that either; how the hell are City ranked over Juventus who have won it twice. City have one mediocre group stage campaign to their name.

    By that rationale so should Anderlecht, Ajax, Cluj, Nordjelaen etc etc.

    You're on a wind up Melon. ;)

    Chelsea vs Juve will be sweet.

    teams are seeded based on their coefficient ranking not what title they hold - bar the CL holders


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,839 ✭✭✭Jelle1880


    Ajax would do well to get 3rd in that group, but I like that group D.
