Champions League Contention

We're all PSV tonight at least

Philips make decent products, and Bingo used to manage Dortmund. Easy decision to support them.

True, but they’re big outsiders. I think it will be a good night for the Germans tomorrow and I haven’t got much faith in the kit stealers. I’m also a bit worried about us. At least 'The Mighty Reds YNWA' are through.

We’re half a point behind at the moment. Football Rankings on twitter is the place to go, and ESPN also have a good article about it that they keep updated as we go along.

It's page 100 of the thread and we haven't made the Champions League yet. Someone should fall for this.

The aim is to clinch our CL spot when we're on the 150th page.

Is that on mobile? Page 60 for me.

No, desktop. Think you can change the amount of posts per page in the options.

Open draw for the CL QFs, ideally, Eng teams kept part.

Fingers crossed for Man City v Bayern, Real Madrid v Dortmund, Arsenal v the worst team in it, whoever that is. European football experts feel free to chime in here, because I haven’t got a clue.

FTFY

Avoid uniforms is my tip. As for qualification for the CL, may I suggest we finish in the top 4.

This is all that needs to be said.

Am I right in thinking that there are 3 points per team on offer tonight? Two points for a win and a bonus point for progression to the next round. And that those points are effectively divided by the number of teams we've had in europe this season? So, eight for us and seven for Germany.

If so, then a win for us and Liverpool would increase England to 15.750, and a win for Bayer Leverkusen would get them to 16.356?

So reducing the gap would hinge on WHAM! being able to win by two goals tonight to get a maximum of 0.375 and stop Germany getting an extra 0.428?

Mind, a win on the night for Brighton would still get us 0.250, even if they're knocked out?

Or have I got the whole thing completely wrong?

Who said football isn't as exciting as in the olden days?

mostly right but we can't get a bonus point tonight, that doesn't apply to this round of the conference league.

Cheers.

They've put that in specifically to annoy us, no doubt.
