Teams I'd like and avoid from each pot:

Pot 2
Yes please: PSV or Benfica
No thanks: Valencia, Roma or Sevilla (if they - as expected - make it through)

Pot 3
Yes please: Celtic, Sporting Lisbon or Marseille
No thanks: Schalke, Stuttgart or CSKA Moscow

Pot 4
Yes please: Rangers, Slavia Prague or Rosenborg
No thanks: Dynamo Kiev, Besiktas or Fenerbahce

I have included no reasoning for my choices, but they vary between everything from difficult opponents to annoying trips

Anyway, we should be more than able to get through, no matter the group pairing.

I'd be thrilled if we got someone like Bremen and avoided the likes of Lyon, Valencia, Sevilla, Roma, and of course, Benfica. Don't fancy Celtic either, I know they'll do us over at their place, and defend like men possessed at Anfield, don't think we'd get much change out of them.

I'll take PSV, Steaua, and Slavia Prague please. However knowing their luck/bribed UEFA inside man, Manure will undoubtedly get the easiest draw of the lot as they do every year.

I waiting for the standard - "I think we'll get..." posts.

Never ceases to amaze me who some fans think they can predict the outcome of a draw!

I know Benfica dumped us out two seasons back but with the squad we've got now I'm confident we'd take 6 points against them.

Fear none of 'em. :nod

Nobody will relish seeing our name come out the hat.

No Italian,Russian or Eastern European teams please.

Sevilla would be a difficult one - I think they could be a suprise in this years CL. (Not to win it, but maybe get to the Quarters...)

Imagine that, though - the best thing being that THEY would fear US, not the other way around.

Brilliant.
