LFC in 3rd group of seeds for UEFA Champions League 2014-15

Definitely in pot 3 as expected. One of the final spots in pot 4 is still a bit iffy, but the rest of the teams are the highest ranked possibilities to make the group stage. Can't wait to be in the group of death

If I could pick and choose:

Ease:

Benfica
Basel
Anderlecht

Entertainment:

Madrid
Dortmund
Celtic

Hope we go into the group of death.

Real Madrid
PSG
Roma

I believe and have faith.

Barney's all over the place if we were to end up in that group. Definitely think there will be a bit of trouble in Rome and Paris, both have previous with us!

Would prefer one of the spanish teams, Dortmund and Celtic. Drunken times!!

I firmly believe that we're the best team in pot 3 so pot 1 and 2 teams will be hoping to avoid us at all costs. Looks like it's going to be a strong tournament, I can't wait for the group draw!

I think Monaco in pot 4 is the strongest there (remember in 2005 we were with them). Group Of Death IMO would be:

Real Madrid
PSG
AS Monaco

Would absolutely love to be matched up with Dortmund, just imagine those two games!

Hopefully we avoid getting one sh*te team in the group as that raises the possibility of getting knocked out with 10+ points (Napoli this year). Apart from that, bring it on!

So we're actually in pot 3?

Would only be one of PSG or Monaco, can't have two teams from the same country in one group.

Ahh, forgot about that, thanks for reminding me.

Then I'll Juventus to replace PSG.. they have a solid defence, that could be troublesome.

Couldn't give a sh*te who we get, fancy us against anyone. And the top European sides wont park there team coach either

The trick for us will not being so kind at the back. While I could see us opening up Bayer Real Barce and the rest, if we defend as we have how many could they get? Be 3-3 every Tuesday and Wednesday!

So we're actually in pot 3?

Ye mate, at the moment we're ranked 18th in the co-efficiency, can only go as high as 13th which would still mean we're in pot 3.

Got a bit confused because of the thread title.

Now that's a punishment UEFA should consider, as part of FFP.  Drop them two seeding groups.  Make the draws a tad more interesting.

Or just throw the cheating fuckers out.

That is already an option, but UEFA have chosen to stagger punishments out.  Thrown out is for 2nd or 3rd offenders or those that have grossly exceeded the FFP requirements.

Said on Twitter I'd be very happy with Barca, Dortmund and Monaco.

What pot are Man Utd in?

Happy whoever we get, confident we can beat anybody. In fact the bigger the teams we get is just going to make for an even better atmosphere and the achievement of winning number 6 all the more sweeter.

What pot are Man Utd in?

Pot 5 mate.

What pot are Man Utd in?

They haven't even got a pot to piss in mate.

Probably good that we can't face Napoli and Galatasaray.

Happy for us to face anyone. No easy group when we haven't played CL footy for 4 seasons. Steep learning curve.

Having said that would like to avoid any Italian sides for the sake of our supporters derrières.

I'm with Luke and would love to get Madrid, Dortmund and Celtic.

Imagine the nights at Anfield for that lot!!

What pot are Man Utd in?

Pot luck
Pot F**k all

 

It does not matter who we finish up with  in our group, we have beaten the best in Europe before and will beat them again. Any one of the clubs in group 3 will be shitting themselves at the thought of playing Mighty Liverpool, especially at Anfield.

I agree Billy.

The pot you put under the bed mate.

All the above.

That is already an option, but UEFA have chosen to stagger punishments out.  Thrown out is for 2nd or 3rd offenders or those that have grossly exceeded the FFP requirements.

And exceeding the FFP by 120 million quid then lying about it in an attempted cover up clearly isn't gross enough for UEFA.

I just don't want Dortmund, Benfica or Zenith. The rest don't matter.

Probably good that we can't face Napoli and Galatasaray.

Although saying that we've had no bother in our previous games in Turkey V Galatasaray!

And by the same token, no trip to Amsterdam

And exceeding the FFP by 120 million quid then lying about it in an attempted cover up clearly isn't gross enough for UEFA.

Seemingly not , for UEFA.

What pot are Man Utd in?

Louis Van Gaal is bringing some Pot with him from Amsterdam!

Toughest group possible, please. I didn't want us back in the CL to watch us leathering FC Minnows. Give Brendan and the boys a real test and see where we stand. And none of the supposed big teams would be happy about playing us.

Death option would be
Real Madrid
PSG
Roma

For ease -and this may suprise
Barcelona (another new coach etc)
Basel
Bate

I just don't want Dortmund, Benfica or Zenith. The rest don't matter.

Yeah I don't want our players and supporters going to Russia. It would be nice to meet Rafa in the CL but the people in Naples are a bit nutty too...

We're back! We're back. There's no easy teams or easy groups. Just play to our full potential and knock out everyone along the way. The tougher the better and the sooner the better so that we can toughen up early to face the knock out stage. We've been missing for the last few years and we're back and we're hungry, bloody hungry.

Im in the other camp....get a so called lesser group, get through and build confidence then face the bigger teams when we are in our stride.

Death option would be
Real Madrid
PSG
Roma

For Real, PSG and Roma it would.

Who gives a F**k who we get. Gonna get through.

Madrid
Dortmund
Liverpool
Monaco

Sorted.

Madrid

Stop playing with yourself Crouchy.

Don't care who we get, I'm just itching to see Suarez rip it up on Champions League Nights. He's gonna be F***ing pumped.

By the time of the final, it'll be 10 years since our 5th European Cup success.

10 years ago Liverpool beat Carlo Ancelotti's AC Milan to win the European Cup, 10 years on Liverpool beat Carlo Ancelotti's Real Madrid to win the European Cup. 34 years ago Liverpool's left back Alan Kennedy scored the winner to beat Real Madrid so Liverpool won the European Cup, 34 years on, Liverpool's number 34 Martin Kelly scores the winner to beat Real Madrid so Liverpool take back their European Cup. Or 37 since we beat Brugges so Skrtel scores or 31 years since we beat Roma so Sterling scores.

Omens ladies and gents.

As for the group stage I don't give a F**k who we're drawn against. The whole point of being in the European Cup is to play the best teams, to test ourselves against the world's best so let's get them, tw*t them and enjoy another European trip like only Liverpool Football Club can.

For entertainment id want to see

Liverpool
Barca
PSG
Roma

For 'ease' id want to see

Liverpool
Porto
Olympiakos
Salzburg

Who I think we'll get

Liverpool
Bayern
Ajax
Anderlecht

I'm just pleased we can once again savour night time European football at Anfield. Who care who we get just win our home games nick a couple of points away and its last 16 time again.Can't believe it will be 10 years since Istanbul where did that time go.

I'd prefer us to have a steady but testing group stage, give the younger lads or inexperienced a chance to accustom to the level required,
When we progress into the knock out stage we will have built momentum, confidence will be high giving us a feeling of invincibility especially at Anfield,

Our opponents by then will have to endure Cauldron Anfield giving us a massive advantage,

Some say we will struggle and that Brendan is out of his depth, I reckon he will thrive and take us to yet another level,

Can we win it ?

You f***in bet we can, and why the F**k not,

No 19 is imminent, so why not no 6 too ?


YNWA

Would only be one of PSG or Monaco, can't have two teams from the same country in one group.

Is Monaco classed as being in France for the CL then? I thought it was an independent tax haven country?

I'm not arsed about the draw, what will be will be, as long as it's not Turkey or Russia.

Have to bookmark that for the new 'omens' thread when it pops up.

While many are wondering who we will come up against, you can be sure that no team wants to meet us!

Tell ya who we wont meet next season in Europe ...

Man Utd 

Is Monaco classed as being in France for the CL then? I thought it was an independent tax haven country?

Well they play in the French League!!

Well they play in the French League!!

Dippy sh*t me like.

I'll be honest, I dont think Atletico will be as strong next season, so I would be too upset if they eere the top seeds in our group.
watching that match last night msde me realise just how much I'm looking forward to the competition.

I don't give a penny who we'll get, I happy that we will be playing in Ch. League

I really really really hope we get Barca, so we can destroy them home and away, knocking them out in the process.

Anyone know when the draw will be announced?

Please let us get Barca now. And let Lambert and Sturridge tear Masch a new one as we dump them out of the CL

Anyone know when the draw will be announced?

End of August, usually day before the Super Cup final.

Anyone know when the draw will be announced?

28th August is the draw.
