I don't get this argument at all. Even if we loose against Pilsen almost nothing will change and Milan will still qualify through. If we however loose against Juventus it will be on more setback against a direct opponent. To me, it's as clear as a day which match should be prioritized.

Even if we lose against both, it won't be the end of the world. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sleepysmiley03.gif) That's the reality of football, we may still top the group after losing against both Plzeň and Juventus. And we can win both and still end up humilating ourselves when push comes to shove - coming months in the CL, and a streth of hard matches in Serie A.
Point being, no matter what you guys say/believe here, come the reality of football, little of it matters. |

Well, I wouldn't go as far as you go acid, because such relativism would easily mean 95% of our discussions here are pointless, which from a pragmatic point of view may seem indeed the case, but still - isn't the whole truth.
I just say - loosing against Juventus would hurt me and us much more then loosing to Pilsen. |

Yeah, well that was the plan. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy.gif) 95% of speculative discussions are just that, a bit useless (lots of fun, though). But really in as big a thing such as a 38-match league, or the highest-profile European tournament, things don't always are what they seem. I mean, we already are on a backfoot domestically, we have scattered a bunch of points, that can come back and haunt us towards the end. If anything, this means we have little room for error there.
Same goes in the CL, I mean, look what we did manage to do. Take 2 points away from Barcelona in their backyard (at least that's what I think, instead of us scoring a point). But we stil are on a tight rope, as far as securing first position in the group is concerned. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) So yeah, what you guys are on about is still fun, and yes, what I'm saying is philosophical. But like I said, that's the beauty of the game in particular, and sports in particular. It still doesn't change the fact that anything goes, though. We can win both, and still end up as red face a couple of months down the road. We can lose both, and still live long enough to tell the tale in the CL and Serie A. What matters is how we make use of these two matches, despite the result. It's still early days in both our adventures! |

Agreed, we're still no where near being good enough to win the CL, another title would give us a huge boost going into next season. And maybe with the right moves next summer we could move closer to a CL win. But at this point, with the squad we have, I'd be more then happy with a quarter/semi final showing |
