Re: English Football 2023/24

Man U look toast for 6th place because of the GD. The danger is now Chelsea making a late run for it. They look toast for 7th, too, though one never knows. Though that works for them TBH. If Newcastle don't really want ECL, as I suspect, MU want it much, much less. You hate the club since they fiel...

Re: Turkish Football Season 2023/24

Galatasaray has 99 points, and 2 games left to finish the championship... they have to face Fenerbahce and Konyaspor, they could reach 105; what is the championship points record? Barry Town United F.C. 105 points? But it's in no small part because the Süper Lig went to 20 teams. I know Turkey is a...

Re: Battle for important ranking positions 2023-24

Opta is not realistic, they constantly exaggerated England's chances and underestimated Germany, and especially France. It was already seen in GS that English clubs are limping this season and have a lot of problems, despite that Opta favored them. :mol: Opta is not underestimating French clubs at ...

Re: 2023/24 Europa League quarter-finals, semi-finals and final

I find it weird that the EL final is the first one played, instead of the ECL one. It would make more sense, since the CL final (the most prestigious one) is always the last. I agree with the sentiment. BTW, I'm fine with either team winning it. But I lean towards Atalanta now for 2 reasons: more h...

Re: 2023/24 Conference League quarter-finals, semi-finals and final

2-0 FT. Final in Greece will be more interesting with them there. Additionally, Olympiakos actually have a couple of English players in their squad, with one, Omar Richards, having played in the Conference League. So hope they win! :) Neither were in the squad tonight. You have an ability to make e...

Re: 2023/24 Europa League quarter-finals, semi-finals and final

This is what, like the 6th time it's happened in the last 1.5 months?

Don't get me wrong, I like Leverkusen, but this looks almost scripted.

Atalanta - OM (tonight) Atalanta - Roma (Sunday) Atalanta - Juventus (Wednesday in Rome) Atalanta every three days have a decisive game. First the EL semifinal, then a direct clash for a Champions League spot against Roma, in which they have to avoid a loss, to end with the Italian cup final agains...

I didnt know that. Good for them to have a safety net, their ECL GS participation paid off.

As I said, have at it. There's no hope for those playing devil's advocate for The Devil FC.

Re: 2023/24 Champions League quarter-finals, semi-finals and final

Real's luck/juju in CL remains unbeatable and unbearable. They've already won the trophy. Tell me about it. It's like Sevilla in the Europa League, only worse because it's usually sprinkled with cheating here and there, and sometimes everywhere. But you wanted the evuhl Oil clubs out so The Devil F...

Re: 2023/24 Champions League quarter-finals, semi-finals and final

There's no logic in anything that happens to Real Cheaters when they make a CL final, and even their fans, with their 1/4 of a brain cell combined, sometimes acknowledge this. I know, Barcelona (and a few other supposedly big teams) would do well to have a mere 10% of the guts Evil FC players show w...

Re: 2023/24 Champions League quarter-finals, semi-finals and final

This year Real wins mostly on merits, without cheating. I don't like them, but I don't like same-country finals either, so I would want Real to win tomorrow but lose to Dortmund in the final. That's the thing, it just never happens. They haven't lost a European final since Aberdeen in 1985. So it's...

Real had this several times and even won the titles in the end.
Leverkusen 2002, cough cough...

A Final unjustly remembered only by Zidane's goal and nothing else whatsoever.
