Just in case anyone is interested. Dinamo Kiev Fenerbahce Grasshoppers Nordsjaelland Pacos Ferreira Panathinaikos PSV Salzburg Zulte Waregem Zenit I am sure there are others still to be decided but as we are seeded we should avoid playing the really tough sides.
Wikipedia makes its sound like the champions of all the crap countries play one round of playoffs against each other and we play a seperate one against teams that finish 2nd/3rd/4th
**** me . ! anyone but the grasshoppers , i dont like creepy crawlies on a side note , im still seeing some avatars that DONT contain Kosbos . what the **** is that about ?
Our record in CL qualifiers is pretty amazing. I think we have won every single game, but the opponents have got harder over the years. Udinese really pushed us in the 2011-12 season.
out of that group Zenit and PSV stand out as the ones to avoid Fnerbahce not for there football but for there thug fans.
I don't get down on anyone just because they might appear to be having a bad game and I don't get carried away on the upside either. Everyone put in a shift today, no point is singling anyone out. Just my opinion. Don't feel that is what the game is about.
That was a tough game, let's hope we don't get drawn against quality opposition like that again. When is the draw ?
Cfc fan here - congrats on a fine run-in and getting a top 4 place look forward going head-to-head next season. As for the play offs I think you guys will cruise through it...good luck.
