Champions League 2017/18

[Jase]

I look at it the other way, it'll be pretty big playing Real and BD!
But yeah no chance of getting through [emoji1]

Which group did Arsenal end up in? [emoji1]

Spurs through to the last 16 easily after beating Real 3-1 this morning! [emoji47]

Don’t be shocked. Real are struggling in the league and even lost to the bottom side on the weekend. Ageing list and Zidane on the verge of being sacked.
All 5 EPL sides still could finish top

The fact that there are 5 English (or any other nation) teams in the Champions League is laughable IMHO... Should be top 2 of each League at best and the rest go to the Europa league... Bring back the Cup Winners Cup as well...

Spurs top the group of death with a game to spare after a convincing win away to Borrusia Dortmund after being 1-0 down at half time.
In other news Liverpool still not through after throwing away a 3-0 half time lead against Sevilla and Arsenal fans enjoyed another episode of Emmerdale.

2 defensive Giants in Seville 5 of the 6 goals from set pieces. Klopp will never get anywhere unless he can address our defensive vulnerabilities which are so bad they almost look beyond him.

BT Sports and Skysports said they need a draw in their last game to qualify. Cant see how they're guaranteed top spot, theyre not even guaranteed second spot.

Yep, the live table I saw still had Liverpool winning 3-2. Has been updated now to reflect the equaliser. Would think they will get the point at home and go through

Can lose the last game and get through - We have a 7 goal GD advantage over Spartak. A win today would have guaranteed finishing atop the group.

Goal difference is irrelevent mate, if two teams tie its points head to head that count first. You can't lose unless Sevilla do to.
Its also why Spurs can't lose top spot to Real.

Ah OK, wondered if that might have been the case .. If we don't get through we've noone to blame but ourselves.

[Jim05]

Disappointed to cough up a 89th goal and lose to Basel in the road but still pretty much assured of top spot in the group

Spurs end up with the most points in the group stage of the CL despite being in the so called group of death. All 5 English teams through. Draw for knockout stage on Monday. Chance of opponents:

Interesting that all the Pommy clubs will miss each other in the Rd of 16 too, wonder when the last time was that 5 English clubs could all make the quarters?

Never I’d imagine. Only recently the Europa league winner was granted a CL spot.
I’d be surprised if more than 2-3 get through to the quarters. Real, Bayern and Juve would knock over most clubs over 2 legs

Yep, and good chance we end up with one of them ... Was nice while it lasted lol

Real ain't that tough, we knocked them off pretty easily.

Think we knocked 7 past them over 2 legs last we played them (albeit that was 10 years ago lol)

That’s because you can’t be drawn against another team from your same league in the first round of the knockout phrase

We knocked you off pretty easy. Soccer doesn’t work like that

You couldn’t get past Watford or WBA so they must be better than Real also

Shoo you, supporters of the big clubs in Europe are talking.
