So Chelsea beating arsenal is irrelevant?
Yes, if Roma don’t finish Top 4 in Italy.
So Chelsea beating arsenal is irrelevant?
Yeah that would also help. We need one of the two to happen for pot 2, I think.So Chelsea beating arsenal is irrelevant?
Point 3 is the only one which matters to us now. Basically if Roma miss out on CL we're in pot 2.so we need either Atalanta or Milan to finish above them ext weekend.
Could be sorted tonight if Atalanta beat Juve away.
It is right. We need Atalanta or AC to get one point and Roma are out, we are pot 2Apparently serie A use head to head before goal diff. News to me but i’m Told it’s right
Aims:
5) Winning the league
6) Winning the CL.
We are at 5)
6) seems to have got ahead of itself.
League >>> CL
I'd gladly trade in at least 2, maybe even 3, CL-wins for winning Premier League.
Right.Atalanta drew 1-1 so we're in Pot 2 if we don't win the CL, right?
If Roma win and Inter lose on the last day. We'll be pot 3Atalanta drew 1-1 so we're in Pot 2 if we don't win the CL, right?
Nope cos Inter are 3 points ahead, and even if they lost and Roma won, as their head-to-head record is the same, it would go to goal difference and Inter have a +6 goal difference and play 17th placed Empoli at home.If Roma win and Inter lose on the last day. We'll be pot 3
Ahh yeah I see. Looked at flashscores and calculated GD wrongNope cos Inter are 3 points ahead, and even if they lost and Roma won, as their head-to-head record is the same, it would go to goal difference and Inter have a +6 goal difference and play 17th placed Empoli at home.
I think...
The league beats the CL - hands down.
The CL is more glamorous but the league is a sign that your team has been consistent and strong throughout a nine month period.
Having said that if we win the CL... it may look better to potential recruits.
Champions of England or Champions of Europe?
CL is significantly more prestigious and it's harder to win as you're up against Europe's Elite sides.

I’d love to see us win the league in my lifetime, as it’s the peak of domestic football. Champions League would just be something else entirely though, as it’s without doubt the peak of club football, and arguably the peak of football in general.
I do love the World Cup, but international teams will never be as good as top clubs with a mix of the best internationals.
This is by far the most significant match Spurs have played in the modern era. Just getting to the final is the stuff of dreams. Winning it would be the stuff of legend.
I totally understand the CL thing and you know what it would be unreal as its what I have dreamed of all my life... THFC win the CL - fuckin hell
But the league is 38 games, home and away, night and day, ran and sun, injuries and suspensions etc - yet you come through all that and win the league? thats pretty damn huge.
The CL is more a romantic competition and makes you feel damn giddy.
