orion318 Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 Yeah i know Walrus JT is untouchable..i love him and think he's great but too be fair after the injury he's not been that good..losing too many balls in the air, and not so strong on one on one's as before..should be back to form next year i hope Won't mention that again Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ManU's attacking ability this year as mainly been one man Ronaldo, besides him and Scholes no one has had a top notch season in attacking terms for Utd..but Ronaldo's class is enough atm for anyteam to beat just about everyone. EPL isn't exactly the Eredivisie where you have 5-0 results every week. Consistency at the back is crucial. But don't let me touch the "total football arsenal" sore spot..i think you play pretty football..just not good enough to win competitions atm Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jongi Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 If Liverpool were to win the CL, the runners up would still be in the group stages. UEFA allocates a space for 9 league champions, 6 runner-ups and the the CL title holders in the initial group pots. If the title holder qualifies as league champ or runner-up, the title holder position is then handed down to the champs of the 10th uefa coefficient country (meaning they then don't have to play a 3rd qualifying round match).

The tons of late goals and fighting spirit is amazing, even with lots of injuries to key players and big stars constantly underperforming.
