Perhaps Fulham agreed too soon to EJ's loan. Saw a report where Zamora was sent to hospital, which sounds pretty bad. Just poor timing for EJ....

It wasn't a good day for Fulham on Tuesday, what with a first-half beatdown at the hands of Stoke City. The Cottagers nearly fought all the way back from a 3-0 deficit though thanks to a ridiculous goal from U.S. national team star Clint Dempsey. Here is the goal: Fulham went on to lose 3-2....
Can you explain more about how the pots are determined and the method for drawing teams? Are you following Fifa's protocol as nearly as you can guess?
