3:57	Hello everyone, and welcome to a very exciting Champions League Group Stage Draw liveblog.

3:58	UEFA are notorious for starting these things late, but its supposed to be in half an hour, I think. But there will be plenty of explaining the rules and clips of teams before that, I'd guess.

4:02

A reminder of the pots is probably in order:

Pot 1 - Barcelona, Chelsea, Liverpool, Manchester United, Milan, Arsenal, Bayern Munich and Sevilla

Pot 2 - Lyon, Inter, Real Madrid, CSKA Moscow, FC Porto, AZ, Juventus, and Rangers

Pot 3 - Olympiacos, Marseille, Dynamo Kiev, Stuttgart, Fiorentina, Atlético Madrid, Bordeaux and Besiktas,

Pot 4 - Wolfsburg, Standard, Maccabi Haifa, Zurich, Rubin Kazan, Unirea Urzicini, APOEL and Debrecen

4:07	[Comment From chelsea.b] so a team from pot1 will have one team from each pot in their group?

4:08	Yeah, each group will have one team from each pot, and teams from the same country can't be drawn together.

4:08	[Comment From Paul] United have to get Madrid right?

4:08	It'd almost be too written for Man United to get Real. Mind you, Chelsea could get Inter for a tasty José tie as well.

4:10	Whichever way it comes out, its hard to imagine that there won't be some genuinely mouthwatering games in the group stage. And at least one group of death.

4:11	[Comment From maja] Could it be that you think that UEFA are notoriously late because you are always half an hour early?

4:11	[Comment From casey] when will the drawing start
