Champions League Contention

[Brazilian Villain]

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. 

It's more to help Spurs, obviously.

[Nii Lamptey]

Don't really care about this 5th spot nonsense. We're not going to need it as we're going to finish 4th.

In which case, no 5th spot would actually help us, as it means slamming the door shut behind us, not letting Spurs or Man Utd in!  😉💪🏻

[Dave]

Come on then West Ham, needs must.

[PaulWinch again]

Come on then West Ham, needs must.

Indeed and ideally a few key injuries for Sunday.

[Dave]

Yup, that too.

[Demitri_C]

West ham 2 up. Hopwfully they can keep it up

[Demitri_C]

West ham winning 4-0 certainly helping things!

[OCD]

5-0 with the last few minutes to go. That'll do nicely. Fuck off out of Europe, German team.

From that Football Rankings Twitter page

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 West Ham are about to move England towards the extra Champions League spot!

🚨 If they eliminate Freiburg, they will add +0.375 points to England, and increase chances for extra Champions League spot from 70% to 85%!

🇩🇪 Germany would go down to 20%.

[Bad English]

Thi is worse than xG. Remember when we sniffed at teams not being champions of their league? Here we are rooting for the scraps. Tsk! (I'll take 5th and a place in the Money League though)

Bloody leukeusen score twice in injury time. Ffs

Qarabag have bottled that

I suppose that is one interpretation on a team losing late to one that hasn't lost a competitive match all season. The other one might be said undefeated team are good at no losing matches.

Of course it will be interesting when it is Highbeams v his potential replacement.

Being down to 10 men after a dubious red probably didn't help.

Italy and England are going towards securing extra Champions League spots!

🇮🇹 Italy added +1.143 points today!

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 England added +1.250 points today!

🇩🇪 Germany added +0.428 points today!

- Amazing comeback by Bayer Leverkusen kept Germany still alive in this race!

I reckon at this point Bayern and Leverkusen pretty much need to win their tournaments or it's done.

Hard to see how all of us, Liverpool, Arsenal, West Ham and Man City don't get more victories combined than Dortmund and the two above.

We really do need liverpool and west ham to do well in europa. Same with citeh and arsenal. Hopefully the latter lose in semis and its spanish clubs in final. It was vital we won yesterday for CL 5th spot.
