QUOTE (Fillipo Simone @ Sep 15 2015, 12:50 PM) We'll see. My tip is it will end up a draw. If I had to put my money on someone though, I'd probably put it on City. Juve have been a down right mess this season. The Chievo game imo was a new low for them.

I sort of want that, because watching Juve get even more demoralised will be great fun for us all.
But on the other hand, I still want the Italian clubs to do well... Such a dilemma.

Their midfield play was pretty terrible imo, however their defenders barely let City get a look in and 2 moments from their strikers won them the game.
Anyway, good night for Italy with both English sides losing.
We can still hope to pry that 4th spot away from them yet

In the end, United, Chelsea and Arsenal will prevail and reach the next stage. I don't think our clubs can match or surpass that.
Anyway. I just noticed how awful some groups are. Is this maybe the weakest group phase CL ever? So many bad teams involved.

Sure, they will get through, but the co-efficient situation is in a very precarious moment right now. All it takes if for 1 CL team and 1 EL team from Italy to do well like last season and we can be in a great position to take their spot. Getting to the KOs is all well and good, they had teams in the KOs last season as well, while we only had Juve, but with the teams performing like they did in the EL and Juve's run to the final, it gave Italy a huge boost in the co-efficients. Add to that the 11/12 (I think) season being earased which was very good for England and poor for Italy, so there's still a chance

I don't see it as something that is solely important for us, but for the entire league
I think if we really want to get back to where we should be, the 4th spot shouldn't even be on our radar.

Btw, Florenzi scored a euro goal. The place where I was watching literally went nuts when that goal went in

QUOTE (Danny @ Aug 27 2015, 02:14 AM) People look at the money and the hype and forget that the EPL actually isn't very good. It's entertaining, but if you picked a world XI, how many players from EPL would be in it?
I'd have (top of my head, it's late and I'll forget loads):
Neuer, Zabaleta, Silva, Hummels, Alba, Modric, Kroos, Hazard, Ronaldo, Messi, Suarez
Two. Two from Germany, the rest from Spain. Zabaleta is terrible. He and Kompany fell off a cliff last season.

From 4 English sides, only 1 won their opening game...
Pretty good so far.
Hopefully Fiorentina and Lazio do well tonight as well
