#progression!12...we past Denmark tonight
If they lose they will play in the EL, right? I don't mind them in the CL but I suppose they could fetch us more points in the EL. At least in theory.
Is that enough to get the direct ticket back?12...we past Denmark tonight
Nope..you have to be number 10, sometimes nr 11
There is a 4 point bonus for teams that qualify for the CL. So they need to do really well in the EL to get these bonus points back.
Ah well hope you (and psv if the finish the job tomorrow) get us some points.
Probably, but with a lucky draw they could also finish 3rd in their CL group and then still go to EL and get some results there. Last year their turnover was around €70 million, if they make it to the group stage CL this year it'll be close to €100 million so that's a massive bonus.
PAOK the better side so far in PAOK/Benfica
PAOK 1-0
Benfica get one back on a great header.
PAOK's keeper with brainfart of the year so far. 
What in the name of god did the PAOK keeper just do?
Tie over after his stupidity

PSV finding it easy. De Jong. 5-2 overall.
Looks like we'll end up in pot 3.

Salzburg bottling it again, as usual.
2 Dutch teams in the CL. Been a while.
How have Salzburg managed to never qualify for CL all these years?
Bottlers

Red Star fans trying to disrobe Ben Nabouhane!

Valencia you’d expect them to go out against, Fenerbahçe and Shaktar are bigger than them too. They had no right to lose to all the rest.
Dortmund are in level with Everton, they’re not worthy of a group of death
Liverpool would probably top it
fecking hell Salzburg! Such a bunch a bottlers lol!
Glad Ajax made it in, always have a soft spot for them.
That's a bold, bold statement considering how Spanish clubs have absolutely owned Premiership teams in the Champions League over the course of the last decade. While Madrid is weaker on paper than it was last year, both Atletico and Barsa have added to their teams.
Was tongue in cheek, Liverpool have a very good team though.
oh, I see. Sorry. Emoticons have utterly removed my grasp of irony, sarcasm or the like.
Yes, Liverpool are the team everyone wants to avoid from pot 3. They're playing well. I hope they end up in Lokomotiv's group to balance things out a bit
PSG, PSV, Club Brugge would be our best group looking at the options imo.
