Based on that, if we want to progress we want: Feyenoord, Porto, Crvena Zvezda. If we want pure vibes, with some epic games: PSG, Real Madrid, AC Milan

I'm really glad Man united won at the weekend like

Loving the banner at the top of the forum ? Went with Trippier, he has been a leader on and off the pitch, been the standard bearer, and the one who has raised the standards to be able to get us to where we are. That's not even mentioning his output this season in an attacking sense.

The thing is, they where at home to a somewhat beatable Liverpool side last week and they folded like a deck of cards, at that was on their own patch with the fans behind them. If they'd shown even a bit of fight in that game I'd maybe be worried, but they capitulated with ease, so its hard to see them getting up for it away from home with a stadium in carnival mode.

How the fuck has Vini been send off there, when he's been put in a fucking chokehold for a good 10 seconds, and then tries to push him off him. Thats fucking shocking. I don't actually blame the in ground ref in that situation, he clearly didn't see the incident, but how have VAR come to the decision that its Vini that needs to be send off, thats a joke.

Tell you what Bayer Leverkusen play some really lovely stuff, zip the ball around at speed, with quick one time passing.

3-0 BVB

2-0 Dortmund!

Gateshead lose

Pitch invasion

UEFA is expected to create four pots of nine teams, almost certainly based upon the five-year club coefficient. Each team will play two teams from each pot (one home, one away) to create an eight-match fixture list of roughly equal strength. More "big matches" are created by the teams in the top pots being drawn against each other, which wasn't possible under the current system. For instance, the teams in Pot 1 would draw two other clubs from Pot 1, 2, 3 and 4. Teams from the same association still cannot play each other in the group stage. This is how the seeding pots would look, based on a 36-team Champions League intake using the new system and last season's final league tables. Pot 1: Chelsea, Villarreal, Atletico Madrid, Manchester City, Inter Milan, Bayern Munich, Lille, Sporting CP, Real Madrid Pot 2: Barcelona, Juventus, Manchester United, Paris Saint-Germain, Liverpool, Sevilla, Borussia Dortmund, FC Porto, Ajax Pot 3: Shakhtar Donetsk, Lyon, RB Leipzig, FC Salzburg, Benfica, Atalanta, Zenit St Petersburg, Besiktas, Dynamo Kyiv Pot 4: Dinamo Zagreb, Club Brugge, Young Boys, Leicester City, AC Milan, Real Sociedad, Malmo, VfL Wolfsburg, Sheriff Tiraspol So, Premier League champions Manchester City could have a "Swiss Model" fixture list of: Atletico Madrid, Bayern Munich, Juventus, Paris Saint-Germain, Benfica, FC Salzburg, Young Boys, Sheriff Tiraspol.

Probably the quickest i've seen the ref make a decision after going to the screen Whats the lino doing not flagging that?

Both spots go into the group stages, we'll be seeded bottom just due to having not been in Europe for so long and our coefficient being so low, so the only real difference between the spots is about £2.5m in prize money.

Gateshead behind.

Didn't notice that Brighton confirmed European football earlier, and basically confirmed Europa League football, really please for them, they're such a likeable club

Chelsea are so shit, not even laying a glove on Man City's under 23's

Great finish from Alvarez.
