So with about 2 hours to go, 1.5 till the drab ceremony actually starts, I went looking at the pots and who we could wind up with. Just to see how nightmarish or potentially easy our groups could be. Since I figure we'll be looking and analyzing the draw in the coming day or so, I wanted to throw this up and get a discussion started now.
So without any further adieu:
Pot A:
Us, Barca, Milan, Inter, United, Arsenal, Valencia, Real
Pot B:
Lyon, Porto, PSV, Bayern, Chelsea, Roma, Celtic, Lille
Pot C:
Benfica, Bordeaux, Steaua Bucuresti, Sporting, Bremen, Olympiacos, CSKA Moscow, AEK Athens
Pot D:
Anderlecht, Dynamo Kiev, Levski Sofia, Shaktar Donetsk, Galatasary, Hamburg, Spartak Moscow, Copenhagen
Who do you want to avoid? Play?
