Adnane 1,101 Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 Discussion point:Is finishing third, and therefore dropping into the Europa League, our best hope of qualifying for next season's Champions League?Nope. You can't risk your season on the assumption that you will win a European competition, as it depends on a lot of factors, which makes our decision on 2012 pretty unreasonable, yes extremely lucky, and turned out pretty euphoric, still unreasonable. The way we threw away the Newcastle game at home ( Papiss' screamer ) was a joke btw. And don't even get me started on the FSW who took a team 3rd in the league within 4 points of the leaders and made it 20 points by the time United lifted the trophy, just to focus on a not-that-important Europa League trophy and most of all on the FA Cup, where we would get knocked out in the semi-final, playing extra games and winning fuck all from the competition in the end. Fuck I just remembered why i hate that wanker. I'm not shitting on the Europa League, I really celebrated it hard, but those 2 years were awful decision making, pathetic. Mourinho came back to ensure we don't find ourselves in those positions again to begin with, we do now, so he should take the right decisions, and that would be get back to the top 4 in the league as soon as possible.So yeah, you should always favour the league, as your final result is made on the basis of your record after 38 games, and not a couple of unfair penaltys in a semi-final knockout, except if you don't have much to hope from the league anymore, and we can't say that about ourselves, with only 1/3 of the season played.At this moment it might look like our best hope, but a couple of home wins and a draw at WHL and we would be within acceptable distance of top 4.

Jase 43,479 Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 does that eliminate Porto.....and then revert to h2h between us and Kiev putting us top?This. @Rhino's Skin, Nop, If we draw and Dynamo win, they go first, because they have the best Goal difference in the 3 teams mini league. If we draw and Dynamo fail to win, there is only us and Porto with 11 points, Porto go first as they beat us in head to head ( 2-1 in Porto and an aventual draw in SB ).

cfcs most wanted 657 Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 If we draw Kiev go top, if we win we go top, if we lose Porto go top. Simple as that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
