Nah, I read last night that supposedly it moves to whoever was third place in the French league. Don't quote me on that one though. Edit: Here's the over complicated system explained Champions League and Europa League: Who qualifies next season? - http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/48218727 Hopefully that link works. This forum on phones is bloody awful |
Link didnt work but I looked it up and yeah. Swines.
Also, what a joke Arsenal and Chelsea getting just 6000 tickets each for the final. The stadium holds 68000. Would love to know how many will end up going to corporate sponsors. |
in bundesliga news, today and next week bayern and dortmund fight for first & second place, and dortmund and leipzig fight for second & third place.
everyone else is stuck at 4th or lower. today bayern v. leipzig looks interesting and is relevant. then there’s still one more weekend robben apparently retiring? fuck, robben and ribéry leaving bayern. damn. thanks for the memories! they’re apparently just leaving the club not retiring altogether. mls maybe? |
Haven't heard anything about Ribery but Robben's apparently looking at Japan. He's also connected with a move to Inter but I can't see that happening.
|
great bayern-leipzig first half! 0-0 still but a lot of back and forth action. bayerns wants to lock the title today.
meanwhile dortmund ahead of dusseldorf 1-0 great pulisic goal. kid is leaving for chelsea after today. not sure why not finishing the season, wtf. — yeah robben too many injuries these days to reliably play europa. maybe should coach—he used to complain about ancelotti, maybe now he can present an alternative |
leon goretzka scores for bayern with an awesome kick but now everyone waiting for var
wtf... offside? this aint the way to do this shit lmao - dusseldorf evened the score vs dortmund .. a minute later dortmund pulls ahead again lol |

Simeone on Messi and Ronaldo. Don't think I've ever seen a better summary of the two players. |
^^brilliant

Sounds fair. Ronaldo could play in any team and improve them. Messi too, but his impact would be lessened if they don't play in a way that's compatible with his style. For sheer talent I don't think anyone can touch Messi but I can see why a manager would consider Ronaldo the more practical option.

yesyes. even with cronaldo subbed out early lol shit, what happened with portugal at the world cup? that group promised so much at the start... BUT ANYWAY |
Quote:
Come on, even putting aside Ronaldo's no-show in the final, Portugal were the most unconvincing European champions since Greece. 'Kicked ass'? Do you remember their games in that tournament? Meanwhile let's not forget the problems behind the scenes at Argentina which brought a number of their star players to the brink of resigning from the national team altogether. Either way, it's fair to say both players' huge reputations are based entirely on their performances at club level. |

eh, he got subbed out early due to injury. and sure, pepe was the star that day. shutting down griezmann was a feat. but cronaldo delivered all along the way, diva fits and faults and all. it goes back to simeone’s comments. precisely that. that was my point. messi needs a well-oiled machine to perform. never gonna be a hand-of-god guy (lol). cronaldo is the guy who will make a difference on his own. he even did it from the bench. ![]() and for this reason he has done more for his country than messi. national squads are generally kludges, save some historical exceptions. and everyone keeps waiting for messi to deliver a trophy, to single-handedly save argentina. but he’s not that kind of player. exactly. i still hate ronaldo though. fucking supervillain lololol. |
