Just realized every PL team won their group in the CL (aside from Chelsea who have one game left vs Zenit which means they will win most likely win their group too).


PL >>>>>>
shyt, it better be. especially since it earns and spends the most and has by far the most foreign players out of any league(70%)

Not only that, some of those matches were complete domination

I know Maldini was sitting in the skybox at Anfield with the :picard: when Milan played Liverpool


We're seeing the results of elite coaching with the PL's resources

Strikers? Who needs them? Chelsea were fine without one against Juventus, just as they were when they demolished Leicester last weekend, and the quality of their football in the past week means that Tuchel does not have to shift gear against Manchester United on Sunday, even though Romelu Lukaku is available again and no doubt desperate to play against his old team.

The Lukaku issue is a fascinating one for Tuchel to solve. The striker’s recovery from the ankle injury he sustained against Malmö on 20 October is welcome, but he is not returning as a saviour. Lukaku, who is 28, was an unused substitute against Juventus and, given that Chelsea have responded to his injury by rattling in 23 goals in seven and a half games, Tuchel is under no pressure to start him against United tomorrow.

Chelsea’s attacking brilliance without a striker could delay Lukaku return

Imagine they spent that 100m differently. :mjcry:

At this point Spurs just need to get rid of Dele in January. What the hell has happened to him?


It's mad. Hunger and the edge has completely gone by the looks of it, he's been shyt longer than he's been good now.

Dude was falling off towards the end of Poch's reign tbf
He was at his best when he had that shythouse streak to his play :mjcry:

Once Poch tweaked the system to a back 3 and the diamond midfield Dele had to play deeper and no longer in the SS/CAM role along with Son becoming more consistent that was the beginning of the end.
