Do these results and the likely results later today mean that any chance of the 5th EPL CL spot is gone?

Both Liverpool and West Ham need to turn their ties around, if they fail to do so Germany should be safely ahead.Do these results and the likely results later today mean that any chance of the 5th EPL CL spot is gone?
It's hard to tell whether that's the majority now or the sensible ones still outweigh them. After all the dumbest are usually the loudest.I personally dont think he is, but the carry on has already started among the media and in particular social media. Whether we like it or not, he wont be able to escape the fact he went to a side that has dominated the league for 11 years and then finishes 2nd the year he arrived.
It is just a sad fact of football
Think Germany just needs Leverkusen to win tonight and its done.Do these results and the likely results later today mean that any chance of the 5th EPL CL spot is gone?
6th gets CL which at the moment is Eintract Frankfurt but there's a few other teams in with a chance of 6th such as AugsburgWhat happens if Dortmund finish 5th and win the CL?
As Kroos puts it himself: "i am the guy that played the last pass before the youtube highlights clip of someone else starts"I also think Ancelotti should have subbed Kronos off 20 minutes earlier. He wasn’t having his best game.
That Silva penalty. Good grief.

First time I have heard someone criticise how City play, but Alan Brazil did on Talksport this morning. Said they overplay. That Haaland needs to vary his game a bit more. Sometimes they need to just get a cross in and someone try to get on the end of it.City bore me to tears. Don’t watch them anymore.
A hearty meal to begin my day.
So why doesn't everyone team practice 32 minutesBy practicing 16 minutes of continued passing.
Maybe that's valid criticism, but not after yesterday. You could probably criticize them not scoring, but they did everything but thatFirst time I have heard someone criticise how City play, but Alan Brazil did on Talksport this morning.

I think at times they overplay. They have this system and sometimes you do need to go away from it. Funny how they were so wasteful last night. Also think best defenders have sussed out Haaland.Maybe that's valid criticism, but not after yesterday. You could probably criticize them not scoring, but they did everything but that
I think it was tactically brilliant from Ancelotti. City excel when there is space in behind and Madrid gave them none, they were compact and well drilled. If it weren’t for Usain Walker they would have exposed city on the counter.I think at times they overplay. They have this system and sometimes you do need to go away from it.

Yet it was Walker who played them onside for their goal. He might be quick, but mentally he can go to sleep at times. Think quick ones do. They just think they can catch somebody up.I think it was tactically brilliant from Ancelotti. City excel when there is space in behind and Madrid gave them none, they were compact and well drilled.

thanks lads, actually that could work out best for us assuming we have no chance of finishing 5th now anyway. I coming from the point of view that Dortmund need to qualify for CL next season if they have any chance of taking Sancho permanently.Think Germany just needs Leverkusen to win tonight and its done.
If the logic is "practice for twice as long as you need to retain the ball" then every team should simply practice keeping it for 90 minutes at a time. You're sorted then for each half.So why doesn't everyone team practice 32 minutes
I normally don't mind him and he can be funny but what the feck is going on there?Why the feck is he like that?
What more can we say about Ancelotti. He is just a brilliant tactician and has been the most successful manager of his time.I think it was tactically brilliant from Ancelotti.

Wasn't that what Foden was doing, especially in the first half.First time I have heard someone criticise how City play, but Alan Brazil did on Talksport this morning. Said they overplay.

Sometimes history repeats itself... The last CL final in Wembley was played by these two teams.Dortmund - Bayern would be a fun final.
Carlo Ancelotti has won 7 of 8 Champions League knockout rounds against Pep Guardiola (3), Jurgen Klopp (3) and Thomas Tuchel (1).
My thoughts exactly,not going to worry about no 5th spot for Champions League. That's a straight shootout between Villa and SpursIt's nice to know I can watch the semi finals & final in peace
Same.It's nice to know I can watch the semi finals & final in peace
I mean the Sancho freaks would be unbearable but I'm not totally against it.Is there anyone out there now who doesn't want Dortmund to win it?
YesIs there anyone out there now who doesn't want Dortmund to win it?
It certainly is. Congratulations. Think you’ll face PSG in the final.What a beautiful day
