I don’t think you can really draw conclusions from the group stage. This isn’t a cake walk group for either of those teams.From what I have seen, Liverpool-Napoli-PSG won't win the Champions League

Huh? If Liverpool pick up a single point against PSG or Napoli they're through.Wow. PSG and Napoli now both big favourites to go through there.
Please no. We're looking for italian grandparents for himI don’t know how Brazilian coaches have ignored him for so long but it’s looks like Tite might finally do it.
How do you work that one out? didn't Napoli drop points vs the bottom team and Liverpool already beat PSG?Wow. PSG and Napoli now both big favourites to go through there.
What? Liverpool are big favourites now.Wow. PSG and Napoli now both big favourites to go through there.
As of now, it's really hard to say which of the three will go through. Liverpool need to match Napoli's result in Paris, while Napoli could regret dropping points to Red Star in their opening game. PSG are no certs to qualify either as they have to play Napoli away as well.Wow. PSG and Napoli now both big favourites to go through there.
We must have been watching different games. Atleti looked very strong for 20 mins after the break. The rest of the match Dortmund were a level above.Atletico does not deserve to lose this game to be honest. This is a very even high level game that normally would have draw written all over it. We were just a bit luckier in front of the goal. 3-0 is an incredibly flattering score line.
Please remind me how brilliant Real were in the group stages last yearFrom what I have seen, Liverpool-Napoli-PSG won't win the Champions League
They had an underwhelming season last year though. But yeah, exciting times now.I'm so envious of Dortmund. They are run so damned well and on a piss poor budget compared to most big clubs.
Really? I'd say PSG are in a really precarious position, away to Napoli next which on tonight's result they could easily loose and I wouldn't bet against Liverpool beating them again eitherWow. PSG and Napoli now both big favourites to go through there.
We don’t necessarily need to match their result. If we win our next game and PSG wins in Napoli, we only need to not lose against Napoli at home and the game in PSG won’t matter anymore.As of now, it's really hard to say which of the three will go through.

Nah.Huh? If Liverpool pick up a single point against PSG or Napoli they're through.
Of coursePlease remind me how brilliant Real were in the group stages last year
Only if the point is in Paris. Otherwise, it might not be enough and the might finish 3rd on GD.Huh? If Liverpool pick up a single point against PSG or Napoli they're through.
It's head to head and Napoli beat them so they'd have to beat them.Only if the point is in Paris. Otherwise, it might not be enough and the might finish 3rd on GD.
We already let you guys have JorginhoPlease no. We're looking for italian grandparents for him
Not sure they will beat all of Arsenal, Chelsea and Spurs though.It's head to head and Napoli beat them so they'd have to beat them.
If Napoli and PSG draw in Naples, I'm betting on Liverpool to win the Europa League, put it that way.
I could easily see both Napoli and Liverpool beating PSG.Nah.
Napoli PSG draw in Naples
Liverpool win in Serbia
PSG best Liverpool in Paris
Napoli beat Red Star at home
They're the 4 most likely results IMO
Napoli 9
Liverpool 9
Paris 8
Going in to the final game, Liverpool would need to beat Napoli. I don't think they would.
What are you on about? PSG have a mountain to climb. They got a lifeline by Di Maria's equaliser but should have lost and are the weakest team of the three.It's head to head and Napoli beat them so they'd have to beat them.
If Napoli and PSG draw in Naples, I'm betting on Liverpool to win the Europa League, put it that way.
How do you like Tuchel till now? Disappointed with his UCL performances?Well the draw at home isn't a good result but that will do considering the scenario. 2nd half was lower quality compared to the first.
PSG will lose in NaplesNah.

That game is the see saw.PSG will lose in Naples
Piss poor is certainly a hyperbole but you make the common mistake to equate revenue with wealth here. Except Bayern (who build their wealth largely on commercial revenue due to multiple German enterprises backing them), every team ahead of us has a far favourable composition of revenue as TV money, which has basically no costs standing against it, make up a bigger percentage of the revenue.Deloitte had them as 12th wealthiest football club worldwide in '18. I fail to see the "piss poor budget" here.
A bit worse in defense, a bit better in attack.If people paid more attention to Napoli Allan would be held in similar regard as Kante
Let me dream of a brazilian ItalyWe already let you guys have Jorginho
Probably because they sold Aumabeyang for 70+ million and Dembele for 120(?) million without spending much of it.Deloitte had them as 12th wealthiest football club worldwide in '18. I fail to see the "piss poor budget" here.
A loss and he's exposed now? Are you completely ignoring all that he's done at Atletico over the past years?Remember when some people wanted Simeone as our manager?
Exposed tonight. One trick pony that would be worse than Jose.
It's always really weird how these posts come up after a single game. Happens with Pochettino too.Remember when some people wanted Simeone as our manager?
Exposed tonight. One trick pony that would be worse than Jose in terms of footballing quality.
Diallo is a very athletic young CB, still much to learn but already at a good level. Also solid with the ball but not Hummels like. Zagadou is still super raw, you can see he has some talent but he makes too many mistakes at the moment.So I know Witsel has come in, but tell me more about Diallo and Zagadhou.. what sort of players are they?
Yes the CL performances have been disappointing so far but there are encouraging signs otherwise. Still too early to judge really.How do you like Tuchel till now? Disappointed with his UCL performances?
Diallo was one of the league´s best CBs last season and cost us a tidy sum to get him from Mainz. He is a very mature (current U21 captain of France) and solid defender with a very good build up play. Zagadou is a 19 year old "boy" (looks like 29), who came for free from PSG´s reserves in Summer 2017. He has already earned himself the nickname "Iceman" amongst fans which pretty much tells all about him. Brutally calm, a beast in the air and incredibly fast for someone with his body build.So I know Witsel has come in, but tell me more about Diallo and Zagadhou.. what sort of players are they?

Our overall strongest central defender, 3rd captain and defensive leader Akanji is actually injured right now.
