Potential opponents in CL...

[Bari]

I'd perfer any team except Sporting Lisbon

[Darkon]

I would take any of them besides Inter or Villarreal

skip villarreal from that list and we agree

[ronanm]

Hope we get Sporting

[magicalbarnes]

We can do anyone mate, it's not that i think we're screwed.

You'd just prefer an easy tie for the 1st knockout phase. Sporting Lisbon is the only 'bye' in there, the others will all require us to perform well.

Benfica was supposed to be a 'bye' when we were holders 3 years ago

[Elvoz]

Right, it's now definitive.

We'll get one of:

Inter
Villarreal
Sporting Lisbon
Lyon
Real Madrid

Hardly the reward we'd have wanted, for winning the group

would take any of them nae bother
would prefer not to play inter but whoever we play we will beat and march on toward number 6

[meffin]

the draw will be;

liverpool v inter
manpoo v Panathinaikos

[Elvoz]

the draw will be;

liverpool v inter
manpoo v Panathinaikos

my man in uefa says we will get sporting
indeed he said he will make sure the sporting and liverpool balls will be oval rather than round so whoever picks them out will know which ones to choose

Man Utd can't get Panathinaikos - both teams won their group didn't they?

There's obviously an exception to every 'rule' and that was it.

If you're trying to argue that Sporting Lisbon isnt much easier than Madrid or Villarreal (for example), then i dont really think you have much of a case.

[Reece]

I think he was just saying we shouldn't count our chickens whoever we get

We can beat any of them, sure. The chances are higher if it's Sporting Lisbon though, than they'd be if it was Inter.

Did you think we'd beat Chelsea in the semi last year?

[Pacman]

I'd love us to get Inter so we can **** that disgusting little cunt over again.
