Super_Ally 0 Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 The 4 best 3rd placed teams will be seeded for the Europa League draw, as it stands we will not be seeded: Braga ..............9 pts (-4) (Shakhtar, A) Basle ...............6 pts (0) (Bayern Munich, A) Rubin Kazan ......6 pts (-2) FC Twente....... 6 pts (-2) ------- Rangers ...........6 pts (-3) Spartak Moscow 6 pts (-4) (MSK Zilnia, A) Benfica ............6 pts (-5) Ajax.................4 pts (-6) (AC Milan, A) (teams in bold still to play) In order to be seeded in that 4th position, we need Basle to lose by 3 in Munich, Spartak Moscow to lose in Zilina and Ajax/Auxerre to both avoid a win. ------------ Assuming we are unseeded in the draw, our potential opponents would be: Definitely: Bayer Leverkusen Sporting Lisbon CSKA Moscow Zenit St Petersburg Stuttgart Liverpool Porto Likely: Man City Villarreal Dynamo Kiev PSV Eindhoven PSG/Sevilla Braga Twente Rubin Kazan Basle Robbed off a quick thinking FF'er. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Totti 0 Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 (edited) In other words, we don't have a hope in hell. I almost hope we draw a really good team, so we're not embarrassed by a less so one. A quick painless exit as opposed to an embarrassing defeat. The Europa League at the end of the day carries no significance unless we have a run, so lets concentrate on winning another title.

Whilst most of these seeded Europa sides are shit compared to the CL teams, they have the players to easily take care of us. Not to mention some coaches capable of doing a Kaunas/Gothenburg/Unirea or Uncle Wattie 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That'a the spirit, no surrender. Comon man, why so negative? The only teams i'd be looking to avoid would be CSKA Moscow (who are looking pretty good) and Sevilla/PSG both of course good sides. Over 2 legs i'd fancy our chances against every other side. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
