2015-16 Club Soccer (UCL, EL, Libertadores, CCL & Domestic Leagues)

[worst2first]

I've been wanting to watch some of this but AT&T wants $15 a month just for FS1.

 

[GatorTD]

Jesus what kind of cheap ass package do you have?

 

[Yankee151]

ITT Gator comes out of hiding to ask about Worst's package

 

[Snorky's Shame]

Lille-Paris about to start on beIn.

European Predictions:

England: Chelsea
France: Paris
Germany: Bayern
Italy: Juventus
Spain: Barcelona

Champions League: Bayern
Europa League: Valencia

Anyone else with predictions?

That said, I don't think too many will have different teams winning Ligue 1, Serie A and the Bundesliga than I do.

 

[Yankee151]

Yea I'm the same. Itd be more challenging to predict 2nd place I think

 

[Snorky's Shame]

Manchester United
Lyon
Wolfsburg
Roma
Madrid

 

[Yankee151]

Going with the ambiguous Madrid prediction I see

City
Monaco
Dortmund
Inter
Real

Also give me Porto/Sporting for Portugal's 1/2

 

[Snorky's Shame]

Madrid = Real Madrid
Atletico = Atletico Madrid

 

[Yankee151]

He's insane at set pieces. It's his 26th FK goal between club and country and he's only 21.

[Karl Hungus]

Cuadrado to Juve on loan.

 

[Yankee151]

Tsahabalalaaaaaa


Eduardo Vargas to Hoffenheim, Illaramendi back to Sociedad.

 

[DanishDonut0]

My new squad Aalborg Boldspilklub with a solid win tonight!

 

[Karl Hungus]

The game is tied up at 1-1, but Shakhtar look really good for a team without a home. Rapid still trail 2-1 on aggregate.

 

[Karl Hungus]

Holy fuck. Rapid up 2-1 on a beautiful free kick, and are now ahead on away goals.

 

[goblue96]

And....Shakhtar level the match and now lead 3-2 on aggy.

 

[Karl Hungus]

Fuck.

 

[kella]

Shaktar, favored 4* team of idiot pubers on FIFA

 

[DeadMan]

Celtic need 2 goals at Malmo to advance now. They're probably done.

 

[Snorky's Shame]

Scotland's coefficient plummeting and I don't see how it will ever get back up.

 

[DeadMan]

Scotland's coefficient plummeting and I don't see how it will ever get back up.

Celtic could probably add more to Scotland's coefficient in the Europa League, but the Scottish league is pretty much on par with the <name former communist country> league at this point.

 

[Snorky's Shame]

Kazakhstan > Scotland

First upset of this round, Maccabi Tel Aviv over Basel on away goals. This means Roma gets pushed up to Pot 3. Wolfsburg and Moenchengladbach are still in Pot 4.

Monaco out as well while Spain gets five teams in the group stages.

 

[Karl Hungus]

Whelp, bring on the Europa League.

 

[Karl Hungus]

Celtic and Rangers (lol) need to push hard to be brought into the English league structure, even if they'll never get to lose in the CL qualifiers again.

 

[Yankee151]

 

[kella]

I scored a goal like that with Jozy in FIFA a few years ago

 

[bruin]

Beeeeeeeeassssssssssssst @Yankee151

 

[DanishDonut0]

I scored a goal like that with Jozy in FIFA a few years ago

Always gotta go for that at that angle.

 

[Karl Hungus]

It sounds like Llorente may be heading to Sevilla. Spain could be pretty interesting this year.

 

[Snorky's Shame]

Pot 1: Barcelona, Bayern, Benfica, Chelsea, Juventus, Paris, PSV, Zenit

Pot 2: Arsenal, Atletico, Leverkusen, Manchester City, Manchester United, Madrid, Porto, Valencia

Pot 3: CSKA Moscow, Dynamo Kyiv, Galatasaray, Lyon, Olympiakos, Roma, Sevilla, Shakhtar

Pot 4: Astana, BATE, Dinamo Zagreb, Gent, Maccabi Tel Aviv, Malmo, Moenchengladbach, Wolfsburg

Pot 4 is a dumpster fire.

 

[Yankee151]

Not to worry, City will draw the best team out of Pot 4 anyways

 

[Snorky's Shame]

Arsenal and Bayern in the same group

 

[Yankee151]

Yep RIGGED

 

[DeadMan]

Arsenal and Bayern in the same group

Ouch.

At least that means they can avoid them in the round of 16?

 

[Yankee151]

Honestly how does Man U draw fucking PSV lmao

 

[Snorky's Shame]

Lol Manchester City

 

[DeadMan]

@Yankee151

This must be Platini's revenge for City getting around financial fair play.

 

[Snorky's Shame]

Group H looks like the Hipster's Choice group.

 

[Snorky's Shame]

Manchester City also has a 50% chance of getting a German team from pot 4

 

[adchester]

Oh my god that Astana guy

 

[DeadMan]

Damn, Benfica and Atletico have to travel to Turkey and Kazakhstan.

 

[Yankee151]

lolololol

 

[DeadMan]

Arsenal should easily make it through in that group. Two games against Bayern will also be good for them. There's not a real downside to playing Bayern like that - if they lose, so what? If they win, it's huge. The problem will be that they will have to not lose to Zagreb (no problem) and Olympiacos (a little more iffy in Greece) to go through.

 

[DeadMan]

Hmm, anyone else think that Juventus is the team in trouble in that group and not City?

 

[TrojanMan]

Chelsea, Porto, Dynamo Kyiv, and Tel-Aviv.

 

[Yankee151]

No, City will get 2nd place and draw Barca in Round of 16

 

[DeadMan]

Chelsea, Porto, Dynamo Kyiv, and Tel-Aviv.

Really good for Chelsea. Mou can probably rest starters with that group, making them more fresh in the second half of the season.

 

[Snorky's Shame]

Predictions

Group A: Madrid, Paris, Shakhtar, Malmo
Group B: Manchester United, CSKA Moscow, Wolfsburg, PSV
Group C: Atletico, Galatasaray, Benfica, Astana
Group D: Manchester City, Juventus, Sevilla, Moenchengladbach
Group E: Barcelona, Leverkusen, Roma, BATE
Group F: Bayern, Arsenal, Dinamo Zagreb, Olympiacos
Group G: Chelsea, Porto, Dynamo Kyiv, Maccabi Tel Aviv
Group H: Valencia, Lyon, Zenit, Gent

Olympiacos is a team in deep shit off the field, I'm not worried about them.

Shakhtar and Sevilla got raw deal. They would win Group H.
