      That's a turn up if true, was sure it'd be third pot

      Me too but you'd think a sport's journalist would have his finger on the pulse regarding it.

      In the latest rankings we were 32nd and Benfica were 6th. Would be very strange if we ended up in the same pot.

      It's quite funny because Benfica is listed in Pot 1 and Pot 2 above.

      No reason to even concern ourselves with this at the moment. We're in the Champions League. That's what matters.

      Oh yeah, just noticed that :D

      And you're completely right, three big games to come first. And even when it comes to August, I'm not too fussed who we get, it's just going to be F***ing boss having European nights back at Anfield!

      The pot and opponents doesn't concern me, we'll destroy every team and win it for the 6th time next season :)

      Nice to think we are replacing the Mancs in the competition. What a difference a season makes back amongst Europe's elite where we belong !

      Not really concerned which pot we're drawn from. The bigger the games the better for me.
      Big champions league nights are what we've been craving, so if we are drawn against Barca, Madrid, and Munich, all the better!

      Yes I know that can't happen BTW ; -)

      I think we'd need a few more big teams to F**k up and not qualify in order for that to happen.

      List of next year's current coefficient ranking: http://kassiesa.home.xs4all.nl/bert/uefa/seedcl2014.html

      One thing he is not wrong on is we just earned a minimum £40m for qualifying, on top of a potential £100m for winning the league. Money for transfers ;)

      Finally!! So good to be back! Don't care who we get but when the draw rolls around. Although I would like to get Celtic if they qualify as it could be a game I could get to up here if I was able to get my hands on a ticket. Apart from that,bring on anyone!

      As long as we are in it.

      Bet there are a fair few teams are a) relishing the cache of playing Liverpool again in the comp and b) being frightened as to what the pace of Sterling, Sturridge & Suarez can do to them

      I'd love us to get Dortmund at some point, two amazing sets of fans.

      Just glad to be back though. Can see me having to book a few nights off work!

      I hope we get Dortmund, I like Signal Iduna Park. I'd love to see BVB v LFC there.
      The biggest stadium in Germany.
      I've been there, loved the atmosphere.

      Beers inside the stadium and lots of Pretzels.   ;D

      Dortmund is actually the last team I want us to get. I know it would be a cracking fixture, but I believe they are one of the few team that we would struggle against.

      Just went through it all, and as the league tables stand these would be the pots (Q means that it assumes they qualify from the play-offs, if not then the teams below would all move up a place)

      Pot 1: Barcelona, Bayern Munich, Real Madrid, Chelsea, Benfica, Atletico Madrid, Arsenal (Q), Porto (Q)
      Pot 2: Schalke, Borussia Dortmund, PSG, Juventus, Shakhtar Donetsk, Basel, Zenit, Manchester City
      Pot 3: Bayer Leverkusen (Q), Olympiakos, Ajax, Napoli (Q), Liverpool, Sporting Lisbon, Galatasaray, Athletic Bilbao (Q)

      So as you can see, if it stayed like this, even if Arsenal, Porto, Leverkusen and Napoli didn't make it through the qualifying rounds we would still be in pot 2, obviously the league tables might not end up like this but its still very very very unlikely that we will be in pot 2.

      So some possible scenarios include, Bayern Munich + PSG. Or Porto + Zenit.
      Regardless, all of the games are going to be tough.
