Realistically, I feel over both games no team was better than the other and Schalke just got a little bit lucky with the pitch and the penalty. In my wildest dreams I did not believe that Mönchengladbach had a chance to win it all, so I can take solace in that. The extra millions in cash would have been nice though. Game of the season is the DFB Pokal semi final against Frankfurt now. For a possible trophy and for a spot in Europa League next season. | ||

The dream: Barça - Leicester Real - Atletico Nightmare: Barça - Atletico/Bayern Real - Leicester And whatever else :D Predictions: Real - Monaco Barça - Dortmund Atletico - Juve Bayern - Leicester I don't think any of these matchups have been done in the recent years (Real-Monaco in 2004 only). | ||

Anderlecht (BEL) Beşiktaş (TUR) Celta Vigo (ESP) Genk (BEL) Lyon (FRA) Manchester United (ENG) Schalke (GER) Is it me or is the Europe league less stacked than usual? I'd give Anderlecht a fair chance against any of these teams. I just hope they don't have to travel to Turkey in the middle of the Belgian play-offs so I'd rather not draw Besiktas. | ||

Where technically a last 4 in champions league could; Leicester Monaco Atletico Madrid Dortmund XD I was going to respond something similar. Also, Lyon is raging in Europe. I am either severely underestimating Anderlecht this season, or the original assessment is rather optimistic. In terms of quality this season, I'd rank: Ajax, Anderlecht, Genk, Besiktas and Celta as all mutually likely to win a matchup with one another Schalke should beat any one before ManU depends on which ManU shows up. If the good ManU shows, they can beat anybody in the league. If the "don't care about EL" ManU comes, they are out in this round. Lyon should beat everyone easily except a strong ManU. | ||

I didn't, but you're not yet done editing. Any actual Torino will be pretty upset at you calling Juve "Turin".  | ||

Kinda overestimating Lyon, my friend :D They beat Roma 4-2 but not really deserving that scoreline. Roma was properly better overall, they lost the tie over 30 minutes in the first leg. Celta/Lyon/Shalke is the same level, imo. I don't know about Ajax too much but they should be around that too. | ||

I was suprised by how good we were vs FCK though. We were the better team over the 2 games imo. I think we can do well this EL but we can be out in the next round too :D | ||
