Super_Ally 0 Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 Jumping the gun a bit maybe but thought peopel may be interested in this. Been meaning to post something similar myself but its easier to steal what someone else has already written:devil: : IF we get by Red Star heres what were looking for to squeeze into pot 3. 2 of the following must go out, the ones in bold are still to qualify and are placed higher than us... FC BATE Borisov v FC Steaua Bucuresti Tampere United v Rosenborg BK FC Spartak Moskva v Celtic FC Werder Bremen v NK Dinamo Zagreb FC Salzburg v FC Shakhtar Donetsk AFC Ajax v MÃ? K Ã?½ilina or SK Slavia Praha Valencia CF v IF Elfsborg FK Sarajevo v FC Dynamo Kyiv FenerbahÃ?§e SK v RSC Anderlecht Toulouse FC v Liverpool FC SL Benfica v FC KÃ?¸benhavn S.S. Lazio v FC Dinamo Bucuresti AC Sparta Praha v Arsenal FC FC ZÃ?¼rich v Beşiktaş JK Sevilla FC v AEK Athens FC and for the record the full list is: (* means already in group stage, so basically we be looking for 2 of teams above us to go out so we move into pot 3) POT 1: 133.808 * AC Milan 119.374 * FC Barcelona 112.618 Liverpool 107.808 * Internazionale 104.618 Arsenal 104.374 * Real Madrid 99.618 * Chelsea 99.618 * Manchester United POT 2: 99.374 Valencia 95.706 * Olympique Lyon 89.107 * FC Porto 87.374 Sevilla 81.995 * PSV Eindhoven 78.808 * AS Roma 67.107 Benfica 65.995 Ajax POT 3: 63.640 Werder Bremen 62.064 Celtic 60.640 * Schalke 04 58.640 * VfB Stuttgart 55.255 Steaua Bucuresti 53.920 * CSKA Moscow 52.107 * Sporting CP Lisbon 51.808 Lazio POT 4: 51.706 * Marseille 47.064 Rangers 44.726 Shakhtar Donetsk 43.791 Besiktas 42.415 * Olympiakos 41.594 Anderlecht 38.726 Dinamo Kiev 31.509 Rosenborg The Tims going out is good for us for all the usual reasons but also because we would only need one other seed to fall to sneak into pot 3. It's not certain Celtic will go out, although it is a definite posibility, I suppose the same could be said for us, although we have the easier tie. But where else does a seed look like they might go out? Benfica maybe? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benfica would be the one for me but Sevilla don't have an easy game either, though you would still have to expect them to go through. The rest look like they should have more than enough to see off their opponents. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest davierfc Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 it would have to be obviously the great unwashed and i think Seville could also drop out with a difficult away tie in Athens not an easy place to play football very intimidating and maybe lazio as well who knows 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
R.B. 0 Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 There is a couple there that might struggle, gives us a legitimate reason to want ceptic to get pumped. Ajax - Slavia Prague and Benfica-Copenhagen could be possibilities as well, i will be happy just to get to the group stages but it could meke a big difference to our chances if we can make pot 3. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
calscot 0 Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 I would like to see Sparta beat Arsenal. Ajax looked poor in the preseason friendlies... Seville have a tough one. Benfica and Lazio won't find it easy. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
fraser54 0 Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 I think Celtic and ajax will go out and we will move up to pot 3 and get a so called easier team 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whosthedado 1,523 Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 We've got to get there first:) I reckon the Dhims, Benfica and Arsenal could struggle in their ties. Liverpool also have a potetial banana skin against Toulouse 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wija 0 Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 I would also add that we have an extremely tough tie, and one that we need to be well up for. Another performance like that against Zeta Jones will see us go out. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another performance like that against Zeta Jones will see us go out. And another performance like they had in Tallin and we'll walk it. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest SerbianLoyal Posted August 11, 2007 Share Posted August 11, 2007 No offence, but I can't understand why the Rangers or their fans should apprehend of the "mighty red star"... All the things are on the Gers side... 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
