If Roma wins who finishes top of their group? Most of the big teams are finishing top of their group so would be good to have Madrid 2nd to spice things up
Champions League Gameweek 6 (11/12 December)
- Thread starter Tommy
- Start date
So England are the only league with 4 representatives in the Round of 16, Germany and Spain have 3 while Italy will have 2.
Time to restart the 'Relative strength of the Premier League' thread?

Bit of a shitshow the night - 7 meaningless games out of 8.
You can check here the points:So England are the only league with 4 representatives in the Round of 16, Germany and Spain have 3 while Italy will have 2.

2018 England ended up #1 ending Spain dominance on coefficient score for I think more than 5 straight years

And here is how they average 5 last years to calculate country coefficients:

Honestly while the bottom half of the Premier League is shite, who else in the other Leagues are as good as Arsenal and Chelsea in the Europa? The strength of the Premier League at the top is pretty crazy all while their dominant team for 20 years is going through a terrible phase. Bayern have had times of lesser ability that they have consistently got away with but United suffer a transition period and we are instantly punished. I'd accept that the overall 20 in some Leagues is better than the PL but no other League has a top 6 as strong as England right now. Also Everton would give a lot of 7th teams in each League a good game.So England are the only league with 4 representatives in the Round of 16, Germany and Spain have 3 while Italy will have 2.

Bernabeu is booing Isco because he showed or said something to the crowd.
Bale injured?
Bale injured
Real wins the group no matter what happens. The first tiebreaker is head-to-head and Real won vs Roma.
The question should always be. Bale is fit?!?
What's up with RM supporters and Isco?
0-3 
Seriously bad performance from Madrid. Seriously.
0-3. Perhaps Mou isn't a bad idea.
Battle for Europa is intense in this group. Plzen and CSKA have switched places a dozen times during the last hour and half.
Crazy that CSKA will win both games against RM and still won't qualify. As it stands

Don’t deserve to but at the same time do deserve to go out. Losing to the cannon fodder at home does this to you I guess.
3-0 to who?
Real Madrid are losing 3-0 to CSKA at the Bernabeu
Probably their last CL game for a very long time, so all their 200 Fans starting to celebrate.
Vinicius is so bad in this game.
Wasn't Akinfeev the goalkeeper that had gone something like a decade without a clean sheet in Europe?
Yeah, now 2 in 2 vs Madrid.
Yep. Replacing Ronaldo went well. They will get spanked in the knockout stages.
That was really good from Ajax.
They didn't even replace him though. Just lost Ronaldo and added nobody.
Should have learned that lesson from his previous club.
Ajax pressing has been outstanding to start off. The only weak link is Wober.
We finished second on goal difference and his replacement was named to the PFA Team of the Year.
Apparently Valencia were half way towards building a new stadium near the airport in 2009. Anyone know what went wrong?
I think the two games in Group G show how ridiculous some of these dead rubbers are. Real Madrid & Roma have obviously not bothered to turn up for their games as they have already qualified making a mockery of the tournament. Yes I know CSKA Moscow & Viktoria Plzen are fighting who gets into the Europa League, which the latter seemingly won with their -9 goal difference, so thereby rewarding failure for coming nowhere.
Ajax pressing Bayern up to their own penatly area is impressive.
Ajax been having most of the ball. But, Gnarby has still had chances on the counter.
Against the run of play Bayern get one. Interested how Ajax will react.
This little guy is fast. 1-0 Bayern in next action.
Could have been 2 or 3-0 already.
Could have been 2 or 3-0 already.
Bayern take the lead. Lewandowski.
De Ligt I think it was, played him a mile onside.
Not sure about that, their half-built new ground is quite close to the Mestalla.
