We could all have our best or worst group scenarios, but what about most LIKELY scenarios? Likely scenarios: Stoke (England) Sporting Lisbon (Portugal) Besiktas (Turkey) Maccabi Tel Aviv (Israel) or Stoke (England) Braga (Portigal) Rubin Kazan (Russia) Maribor (Slovenia) or Stoke (England) Schalke 04 (Germany) Atletico Bilbao (Spain) FC Sion (Switzerland) or Stoke (England) Anderlecht (Belgium) Steaua Bucharest (Romania) Slovan Bratislava (Slovakia) or Stoke (England) Dynamo Kyiv (Ukraine) Lazio (Italy) AEK Larnaca (Cyprus) What worst, what easiest of these "likely" groups? Cannot sleep - too excited.

Good the people are finally getting excited. Initially everyone just seemed pissed off about no beer served in the stadium and league games shifted to Sunday.

Would love Madrid, Lison or Anderlect from pot 1. Maybe brugge from pot 2 (great place to go) failing that Bilbao or Liege. Hope to avoid the Russian, Ukrainian and Romanian teams.

It really wasn't that long ago we were playing the likes of Cambridge on a cold, wet midweek evening. Or struggling to beat the likes of Grimsby. And now we could be playing at Atletico Madrid, Lazio, Sporting Lisbon! I'm only 24, this is the best it's ever been to be a Stokie!

1 Tottenham, PSV, Atletico Madrid, Sporting Lisbon, Braga Schalke, Dynamo Kyiv, PSG, FC Kobenhavn, AZ Alkmaar, Anderlecht, Twente Enschede
2 Fulham, Besiktas, Hapoel Tel Aviv, Metalist Kharkiv, Standard Liege, Rubin Kazan, Club Brugge, AEK Athens, Steaua Bucharest, Udinese, Athletic Bilbao, Lazio
3 Salzburg, Maccabi Haifa , FC Zurich ,Odense , Lokomotiv Moscow, PAOK Salonika, Birmingham City, Stoke City, Rennes, Austria Wien, Rapid Bucharest, Hannover
4 Vorskla Poltava, Wisla Krakow, Vaslui, Sion, Sturm Graz, Maccabi Tel-Aviv, Slovan Bratislava, Legia Warsaw, NK Maribor, AEK Larnaca, Malmo, Shamrock Rovers
I think we could do with a real glamour team like Atletico Madrid, Sporting Lisbon or Paris St Germain - or a beatable team like Alkmaar, Anderlecht or Copenhagen. What we don't want is a non-glamour team who are also tough, like Braga, Schalke or Dynamo Kiev.
Brugge or Liege would be absolutely perfect in Pot 2 - but there's some tricky ones lurking as well as some horrible trips into Eastern Europe.
Pot 4 - They all look beatable. Sion, Graz, Malmo or Shamrock look ideal - but Warsaw would be a nice trip!

Are we trying to say that getting less bookings stands you in better stead for Europe than winning the FA Cup or League Cup

They got loads and loads of co-efficient points for getting to the final a couple of years ago.

We could all have our best or worst group scenarios, but what about most LIKELY scenarios? Likely scenarios: Stoke (England) Sporting Lisbon (Portugal) Besiktas (Turkey) Maccabi Tel Aviv (Israel) It's a bit freightening that I predicted 3 out of 4 clubs in my first "LIKELY SCENARIO" prediction, after I had presented my most and least wanted scenarios.
