    Just checked and I think they both do too (assuming they use away goals). 

    Napoli won 1-0 at home, lost 2-1 away

    Atalanta won 1-0 at home, draw away

    They don't look at away goals

    It's H2H points, then H2H goal difference, then overall goal difference

    Barcelona are fucking ridiculous. How can they let that happen at this stage in this game at this point in the season? 

    They are awful at defending 

    Terrible game management too

    For anyone not watching, the goals were 73 minutes apart. You alreet neesy. That bike seat giving you jip or what. 

    They were 2 mins apart (unless there is a joke I missed)

    I think it's probably only Napoli they can overhaul at this point since Milan also have H2H over them now.

    Juventus have Sassuolo and Inter next to play and finish with Bologna.

    Napoli have Udinese, Fiorentina and Verona.

    So all teams with nothing to play for essentially. I don't trust Napoli to finish the job with 3/3 - but equally I am sure Conte and Inter will want to rub salt in the wounds.

    If Napoli didn't concede that late goal to Cagliari then I think that would have been tough for Juve

    The Inter game will be big, whilst Conte will probably want to win, how much in holiday mode will the players be?

    But they won the title last season with him and could have won more this season had they appointed say Conte and not a novice like Pirlo. Ronaldo is not the reason Juve have had a shit season or would be judged as a mistake signing. 

    And like with any successful side that’s won so much over a time span, it was always going to lead to a period of a falling from grace if you like, Juve just never saw that and appointed the wrong manager and didn’t add the level of quality alongside Ronaldo that was inevitably going to be required to sustain yet more success. 

    They just won it last season

    They've been getting worse

    The reality is, Ronaldo himself isn't a flop (goal record speaks for itself) but his signing has been a disaster for Juventus.

    As has been mentioned the money they gave him has meant the rest of the squad has been neglected. 

    The league was a formality, he was signed to deliver the CL and in that regards they've gotten worse and got knocked out by less fancied sides

    No Ronaldo in the cl is gonna be horrible :(

    I think they'll make top 4 (just)

    If they don't, he'd probably leave, can't imagine him wanting to play in the Europa League

    If I set up an 'unrealistic optimistic transfers' thread, intended to be about how Messi would fit in with our current team, how he might improve certain players etc or indeed accommodate Shelvey as well, that might be a laugh. Or how we might drop him for Hendricks every now and again.

    If people then started piling in, saying "We'll never sign Messi, I'm just being realistic, just don't send me back to the real transfers thread with other people like me", I'd think they'd have missed the point.

    Anyhoo, back on track. IF we had money to spend, who would you trust it to for transfers?

    I know there's a lot of people that would have Rafa back in a heartbeat. I'm not sure I would. I don't think he'd have bought St Max for one thing.

    Not actually sure who's idea that transfer was, because someone did something right for once, and I'm confused about who gets the credit.

    Didn't Saint-Maximin himself say he was due to join in the January transfer window but that Nice blocked the move, so not sure I buy this thought that Rafa wouldn't have signed him

    Agree that it sucks how little Euro football is on TV but I've got to say I think Premier Sports is decent value and has loads of Serie A and La Liga on. 

    The app on the phone allows you to cast straight to the TV which is great. 

    I'll be getting rid for the off-season like. 

    Agreed

    I got it for La Liga matches so Serie A was a bonus

    Much better than Eleven Sports

    Barca are probably the most likely to get 3 wins from 3 but they are behind on head to head against both

    Granada loss going to come back to bite them ultimately
