It makes no difference to your chances of getting through. Those stupid pots Nate drew up can still throw out tough groups, even tougher groups potentially - so maybe a good thing.

Teams like Juve and City are going to continue to be shit in the CL - it's part of their make up.

But yeah if you win your league you get shiny pot 1 status that's fine.

Err you what?

 

[Wilbur]

Also, I'm not saying that it should be easier for the clubs, that isn't why I did that. It's so clubs like Arsenal, who do the bare minimum to stay in pot one every single year for a club of their size, don't automatically stay in that pot.

 

[Perfect Blue]

Like I said before, seeding is a bunch of shit. As are the TV rules. Just put everyone into one pot and go nuts picking from that.

 

[Vivalaraza]

Err you what?

m8 you need to stop quoting my posts which are meant for other people

 

[Meier]

Oh yeah not Madrid. But this is only for the top teams, as it says, you could still have gotten Roma from pot four.

What needs to happen is you City fans stop crying, man up, and earn your fucking points in CL.

I don't think so. As this was outlined a few months ago, the first pot would be winners of top 7 leagues + holder. 2nd pot would be a handful of 2nd place teams based on league coefficients, then the winners of the say the next 4 leagues below the top 7, etc. etc. I guess we'll just see how it all pans out.

I am mostly ambivalent about it (us winning the thing) personally. It is what it is. But a tournament called the Champions League should reward champions. So it's good that they're going to do that.

Juve are the pride of Italy. I will defend them to my death.

 

[Vivalaraza]

You can't have a two tiered seeding system - well you can, it's just stupid and only adds to the self management of the draw.

At the end of the day the best team usually wins the competition anyway and that'll continue to happen.

None of the articles talks about second place going second pot and so on, as far as I can see. Also if we're going by the name it should only be the champions of each league.

That would be great tbh. Imagine having a full on league, everyone plays each other once.

Might have just been conjecture then (other pots being affected) back when this was being bandied about. I imagine though it won't be as simple as champions/holders pot 1, no other changes at all though.

Why not.
First pot as you explained and the rest solely based on the last years performance.

Kopenhagen would be always pot 4 then :<
Sorry Wooden.

 

[Billy Big Bollocks]

And League One should be called League Three!

 

[Esch]

Again, United supporters should not be allowed to make the OT's.

"Ronaldo has refused to receive his Golden Boot in the same ceremony as Luis Suarez. Both scored 31 league goals and will share the trophy. [md]"

Fuck sharing, give it to Suarez only. Suarez scored the same amount of goals in better league, worse team, with no penalties scored, more assists and more changes created.

 

[cartoon_soldier]

Yea, keep on Stevie!

Ronaldo's stance on racists and not sharing the stage with them should be lauded.

Koscielny injured?

I'd do the same if i wasn't allowed to bite Suarez mid-ceremony either.

 

[Bold One]

The Arsenal situation has to be an inside job

 

[Vivalaraza]

It was part and parcel of the winning state of mind Fergie created at the club. I remember Robin Van Persie loving that. He told me that at Arsenal you wanted to win, but at United you had to win - it was a big difference.

Frogie ;_;

Robin :_;

Moyes ;_;

I want to see RVP's face when he saw Moyes in training for the first time

poor Robin

At this point it should be clear the issue isn't their medical staff

We were only one better seeded team getting beaten out IIRC, from being seeded second a few years ago. Instead we ended up being seeded third but were lucky to get shitty Panathianikos in the 2 seeding layer. We generally over the years have earned a hell lot of coefficient, it's the other teams from our league that drags us down... Like fucking Brøndby cunts.

Not surprised but ffs

We should send Roy Keane into C4 headquarters. He's a bro. Would they say not to this? More hardcore than Arby, he is.

Jokes on you. We rarely qualify for Europe these days.

 

[Broder Salsa]

He looks more and more like Mel Gibson. But even Mel Gibson is more likable than him.

You still take it all down, with the attempted qualifiers.

What? Why?

because the general public are morons and would rather watch people baking or fucking the only way is Chelsea shore or whatever shite gets stuck on the box

And @yurt. Not really fussed by the american version. Good luck topping the way it looks, the music, most of the acting. Ain't gonna be able to recreate that.

Oh and episode 3 of series 1? Yeah, they ain't doing that in a MILLION years. Those who have seen it know what i'm blabbin on bout

It's like you don't know who David Fincher is.

 

[Broder Salsa]

It's like you don't know who David Fincher is.

The guy who made the social network, which was a bit poop.

 

[L1NETT]

It's like you don't know who David Fincher is.

i think Fincher is great don't get me wrong but firstly would rather see him create something original and Utopia is such a wierd show with a unique atmosphere is seems misguided to remake it that's all

not disparaging Fincher, just think it's the wrong show to redo, not the wrong team behind it

and wooden I hate you haha

 

[Vivalaraza]

Keane going in on Fergie apparently. GOING IN.

Paper should be fun tmrw.

I liked it.

 

[Baconsaurus Rex]

Isn't Fincher the guy who made Alien 3.

 

[Broder Salsa]

I liked it.

Michael Cera was alright in it, but the movie was just so boring, only the soundtrack was real quality.

 

[Blablurn]

None of my friend wants to drink. I wanna get drunk.

 

[Yen]

Does anyone have any experience with those Dictaphones that transcribe what's being recorded? I noticed a guy in front was using one and doesn't write notes, and he has the highest grades in my course. Maybe that's his secret.

Fincher hardly ever makes anything original :lol. Never written a script I think, he only really works on adaptations.

Can't really speak for the show though, haven't seen it. Just saying, if you're worried about how the show will look, can't pick much better. I don't like House of Cards but it looks sublime and is acted brilliantly. HBO as well, not known for their duds.

I liked it.

The thing he said about Fergie's little spies or whatever it was at the press conference :lol

Isn't Fincher the guy who made Alien 3.

Not really. Studio took it out of his hands and dictated exactly what it was to be.

First film as well.
