This again.
Really?
Juventus have an easy group because Sevilla, Mancity and Gladbach?
Utter shit.
Good day for Italy. Juve convincingly top their group, and our one win counts more than England's one win. So even if their clubs won today, they only earned .5, while we earned .3 simple with one win.
Also, Germany earned nothing, which is great.
Now for EL.
England had two wins lol
Yes, I know that. Nothing in my post indicates otherwise.
If Italy wins one and England wins one, Italy gets more points.
So even if England won twice, they only managed .5, while Italy managed .3 with simply one win.
You said with their one win.
That post was confusing as hell and trying to make a point but didn't really achieve that.
In all honesty, Juve probably has the easiest group in the competition. If they don't finish first, Allegri should still stay because he's doing God's work in the Serie A this year.
Such a shame City lucked out with a grand performance from Hart...They saved a pen and scored a 90th min pen to win the game.
Coefficients as of today:
England: 66.159
Italy: 61.939
Games tonight:
Liverpool - Sion
Monaco - Tottenham
Belenenses - Fiorentina
Legia Warsaw - Napoli
Lazio - St. Etienne
If the English teams win all their games they'll get an additional 0.5 points, and if the Italians do the same they'll earn 1 full point. I predict a loss for Napoli though, Lazio are experts in fucking up, Viola I think can go far in the EL despite losing the first game to Basel. Monaco hopefully prevent Spurs from winning and maybe even beating them.
Roma's loss to BATE could be huge, that's 0.333 points missed. Those three points could've gotten Roma the qualification to the next round which means they could've earnt an additional 0.833 points in bonus (equivalent of 2 wins + 1 draw).
edit:
the difference between Italy and England is currently 4.22 points... Each 3 wins for Italy is equivalent to 1 full point. So if England lose every single game from now to the end of the season, Italy will need 13 wins to overtake England. It's a very, very long uphill road when you consider that at least 3 English teams are going through to the next round in the CL meaning 15/8=1.875 bonus points for that not even including the wins they would collect in the group stages on the way to qualification.
I still haven't given up though. We were in a similar situation last year and we ousted them towards the end of the season thanks to the Italians in EL.
I am fairly confident that Italy will have 4 teams in the CL by 2018/2019 but if we do better than them this year we can get those spots a year earlier. I really hate how Udinese, Samp and the Roman clubs consistently flop in Europe.
The difference is only 0.5 point because 2011 results will be omitted by the end of the year.
Less than that,only 0.327
If Roma had beaten BATE Italy would be already in 3rd place
well done fiorientina and lazio....

2011 points will be included for this season's totals. It will be omitted for next season.
