As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.
i think one of the teams i have to visit before i die is fenerbahce, the russians because both those cities are awsome, celtic cos its not far away from uni, munich because the allianz arena is amazing looking and fiorentina because i have a soft spot for the viola...
Group of Death: Arsenal, Bayern Munich or Juve, Zenit or Celtic, Atletico Madrid.
Some interesting teams in the draw this year, and plenty of possibilities of facing a decent team or 2. Even pot 4 has a few dangerous teams... Fiorentina, Atletico, Shaktar, and Dynamo Kiev BE AFRAID...BE VERY AFRAID.
yup, that's what it will be. You can't be drawn against someone from your own country either so if say Lyon got drawn against Bordeaux, it would be re-drawn.
The draw I'd like (for us to have a good chance of qualifying) would be:
Arsenal, PSV, Basel, Aalborg
A good draw for trips:
Arsenal, Werder Bremen, Steaua Bucharest, BATE Borisov
I've been to a few of the places before -
BAYERN - (the old stadium tho') - didn't like Munich at all, was boring. We did have heavy snow whilst we were there though - we lost 3-1
AS ROMA - Fantastic city, really enjoyed it, especially as we won 3-0!
JUVENTUS - Went to the Delle Alpi, had loads of hassle from the Italian police, didn't enjoy it that much, drew 0-0
CELTIC - Not to see Arsenal, but I like Glasgow, great atmosphere too.
DYNAMO KIEV - Oh my god, fantastic place, I have never seen so many stunningly beautiful women in my life! Drink was dirt cheap as well, had a great day but we got stuffed 3-0 in the pouring rain. Lost my voice totally from singing in the pub non-stop before the game!

TeeCee is spot on - Great place, cheap beer, cheap vodka and stunning women. 85000 attendance and rain to make you feel like home.
Half of that 4th pot look a piece of piss and half looks decidedly dangerous so I guess all top seeds will be looking for the same thing.
Munich in late September to coincide with Oktoberfest might be a giggle.
I would like to see us play Celtic. No particular reason, just would be good to see.
I hope that we avoid Bayern Munich though. Very scary prospect there.
And is it just me or is this the first year that there have been a number of teams with such potential to do us damage in pot 4? There are some in their more dangerous than Pot 3! Especially when you factor in travelling to places like Russia.
Kievs a good place?! i thought that wud be the worst? well i want to make some away trips, never been away in europe with the gunners, what do u think wud be best for me, for 1st time experience?
and how much wud a flight return to Kiev be approx?
and Davey! u'd wanna go Fenerbache?! i know i wud, but its scarey, they stab people out there dont they?!
Christ this is the first time I have properly looked at the potential groups. It does seem the potential for a group of death is enormous. I think I am taking up religion for the afternoon and I'm going to start praying.
we're on our way, we're on our way...! 
and I'm going to start praying.
