If Valencia win at Ajax and we beat Lille, we have a shit R16 draw waiting for us next Monday...

lol I'd say it was more a good goal from us than their defending being awful. https://streamable.com/fxz6j The only thing Lille did poorly was the marker lost Azpi but Azpi did well to attack the ball and space created by Pulisic's run at the near post. How many times did Terry, Cahill, Ivanovic etc score goals like that in the past? And not to mention, it's been a shit long time since we scored directly from the corner!

THE SHIT CAPTAIN SCORED, PEOPLE! THE SHIT CAPTAIN!

Wow. Ajax 1-0 down to Valencia...

Top of Group H, as it stands.

Would like to think it's the latter? They're sitting 3rd in Ligue 1 and face Montpellier & Monaco over the next week - both of them are chasing Lille for the last CL spot.

I'm not very familiar with Lille's team. So anyone with any idea how heavily they have rotated this evening?

LILLE's XI --- Maignan, Djalo, Gabriel, Xeka, Remy, Araujo, Yazici, Celik, Maia, Soumare, Pied BENCH --- Cesar, Fonte, Osimhen, Ikone, Bamba, Sanches, Bradaric

Lille have rested some of their key players. No Osimhen Ikone or Bamba. Remy (remember him?) starts!

As posted above...

BENCH --- Caballero, Christensen, James, Barkley, Mount, CHO, Batshuayi

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hmmm....

Chelsea 0-1 Bournemouth PRE/POST-MATCH DISCUSSION, LIVE CHAT AND ANALYSIS 2019/20 Premier League Match 17 14th December, Saturday 2019 Stamford Bridge 15:00 Kick Off (UK time)

We've had our weekends this season but this past weekend is truly shit for us!

Most play each other next weekend, so we have to beat a dreadful Bournemouth side that have lost 5 on the bounce. Bournemouth's entire back 4 are out injured and so are Josh King and Callum Wilson. My god, if we don't beat them this weekend, heads need to roll!

FUCK OFF WEST HAM!!!

GROUP WINNERS PSG Bayern Munich Man City Juventus Liverpool/Napoli/RB Salzburg Barcelona RB Leipzig*/Zenit/Lyon GROUP RUNNERS-UP Real Madrid Spurs Shakhtar/Dinamo Zagreb/Atalanta Atletico/Leverkusen Liverpool/Napoli/RB Salzburg Inter/Dortmund RB Leipzig*/Zenit/Lyon * RB Leipzig already through but final position still TBD. Let's make sure we qualify first before we worry about who we might face in the R16...

Dropping into the Europa League (again!) would be (kinda) embarrassing for us but it offers us another route into the Champions League next season, although there are gonna be some tough teams in the draw.

All correct. We can't play teams from same country in the R16. So, City, Liverpool, Spurs are out of the equation if we qualify.
