So we need both Sevilla and Napoli to get knocked out to be in pot 2, right?

Yes. Agent Adebayor at Istanbul can only do so much.

Let's hope they get paired up with Hoffenheim and Nice then. Both capable teams on their day. Won't happen but...

Everyone involved in that is probably dead. Are they really still bitter, or just trying to fudge with the other team's head?

As distasteful as that is, it is disturbingly impressive.

I've had a good read of this thread and I haven't seen mention of Arsenal yet.

COME ON HOFFENHEIM! And Nice. And Istanbul! Give us a hand Ade!

 

[Gilzeantoscore]

Tricky tie for Liverpool there.

 

[AdamB]

Tricky ties for each of Napoli, Sevilla and Liverpool!!

Not well up on German football. I thought Hoffenheim was the best draw Liverpool could get. Obviously they are no mugs to be qualifying for the CL in Germany, but thought Napoli or Lisbon were tougher draws

Do teams that lose in the playoff phase go into the Europa League?
