    If the tables were to stay as they are after the final game is played in the CL groups, these are the teams who will qualify:

    Top:
    PSG
    Napoli
    Barca
    Atletico
    Monaco
    Dortmund
    Leicester
    Juventus

    Second:
    Arsenal
    Benfica
    Man City
    Bayern
    Leverkusen
    Real Madrid
    Porto
    Sevilla

    I'm bored so I thought it'd be interesting to see who people think the top seed and second seed teams will want to play and who they will want to avoid.

    So post your lists in order from most favourable to least for both a top seed and second team.

    I think I'd go:

    If you are a second placed team you want -

    Leicester
    Napoli
    Monaco
    Dortmund
    PSG
    Atletico
    Juventus
    Barca

    (The first three could switch around easily, and the second three as well)

    And if you're a top seed -

    Porto
    Benfica
    Leverkusen
    Sevilla
    Bayern
    Arsenal
    Man City
    Real Madrid

    (The first three could easily swap around. I've gone for Bayern lower than I normally would based on some of there performances not being convincing but if there form is better come the time for the games I'd have them above Arsenal and city. I think City with guardiola will worry teams and make them give city more respect than they would otherwise get.)

    You can't get either in the next round :p

    Can't get Porto either so it's:

    Benfica
    Leverkusen
    Bayern
    Real Madrid
    Sevilla

    As your options.

    But I'd like to see a full list from top to bottom of who you think other teams will see as the weakest to toughest opponents <ok>

    I'm currently playing Rock, paper, scissors with Hiag and Sky. Winner gets to do the 'From Chumpions to the Chumpionship in a year' thread come April.

    I know you've been dumped out of the CL, but I wouldn't say it's that bad for Spurs just yet ....

    Napoli or Monaco for us please. I wonder if HIAG will be predicting that Spurs will draw Arsenal in the Europey pot like he did last season ? :)

    ...good luck with that ...you do I hope get the irony? ...there was only one team deserving the moniker of 'Chumpions' last season ...the team that had title aspirations only to finish third in a 2 horse race... :)

  14. I'm going to participate in this thread, because I think that I've earned it.

    Right.

    For ****s and giggles, I'd love to see Arsenal v Leicester in the next round, as that would be a win-win for every would-be wumster on this board. Would love to see either side take an absolute beasting, since it wouldn't make any difference to the quality of the comedy-gold moments that would follow.

    Otherwise, I think I'd love to see the old Leicester v Real and Arsenal v Bayern combo right out the blocks. Imagine the ****s and giggles that would involve! <laugh>

    I have put my local cock-clinic on high alert, and they have their top crash stitch-it-back-on team standing by, because we all know that I will laugh my cock off!

    Arsenal can't draw Leicester in the next round

    Should have steered clear of anything to do with Football HIAG

  17. Hm.

    Nice to see you using your usual avoidance tactics so as to shirk the ****s and giggles scenario.

    So, if Arsenal cannot play Leicester, do you agree with me that the best ****s and giggles scenario would be Leicester v Real and Arsenal v Barca?

    How do you see those two games playing out?

    Do you think that either Leicester or Arsenal could avoid a massive dry-humping?

    Please let me have your non-wum reply, please.
    <ok>

    ... you are completely missing the point ... perhaps deliberately ... the ****s and giggles scenario has already happened ... indeed there is even a separate thread dedicated to it ... here you go :emoticon-0136-giggl

  19. Wow, Bambi!

    I have consumed your every waking moment, so far, today!

    Let no one be in any doubt whatsoever that I own your tiny mind.
