Head to head against who ?

 

I was thinking about Dortmund vs Milan head-to-head tiebreaker if they drew both games. Whether away goals in head-to-head would count before overall goal difference. Not that it matters in this situation really.

If we go out (and i think dortmund already through are unlikely to try too hard vs psg tbh) it was due to the dortmund at home game, as frustrating as that robbery was 1-1 away in paris is objectively a good result. We should not have lost at home. Oh well, was always going to be really hard even before our injuries

 

Nah. You can lose football matches. Incorrect decisions like that tonight are out of our control. If we win and PSG win, it's 100% on that VAR call.

All we can do is try and beat Milan and see what happens after that. We've got no control over the other game and wouldn't rule any result out in Dortmund. 

 

Fact is if we win and PSG don't then we're through. We can only do so much.

 

I'm just glad to be faced with these issues rather than being focused on the bottom 5 and worrying about relegation. Or, even worse, not giving a shit either way. This is much better

I'm not bothered either way about the Europa league. I think our chances of getting CL again next year via the league without it and the fixture congestion is at least as high as with it but without the risk of fatigue/injuries.

Fully fit squad I fear nobody bar City.

I’m still trying to figure out how PSG comply with Uefa supposedly stringent FFP. 12 months ago they were paying Neymar mbappe and Messi. 
 

Uefa going to look into that or nah?

 

Al-Khelaifi is a member of the UEFA Executive Committee :lol:

Actually if we draw with Milan, it might depend on the score...

So a) if we don't get beat we have equal points so b

b) is we don't get beat the the goal difference would be even so c

c) we win

 

 

 

They need to win, if we avoid defeat we are at least in the Europa the way I read it.

According to ESPN these are the tiebreakers. Goal difference in all matches comes ahead of any away goals so I think we just need to draw to finish above them.

 

"Tiebreakers:
1) Points
2) Head-to-head points in games involving the tied teams
3) Goal difference in head-to-head matches involving the tied teams
4) Goals scored in head-to-head matches involving the tied teams
-- If the above tiebreaker initially involves 3 or 4 teams, it is reapplied to resolve any remaining tiebreaker among fewer clubs
5) Goal difference in all group matches
6) Goals scored in all group matches
7) Away goals scored in all group matches
8) Wins in all group matches
9) Away wins in all group matches
10) Disciplinary points
11) UEFA club coefficient." - https://www.espn.co.uk/football/story/_/id/38739455/what-teams-need-qualify-champions-league-groups
