Official Champions League 2017/2018 - New & Improved: Arsenal Free (NWT)

Always a tough place to play. Will still win the group in all likelihood.

 

[Fayettenam]

Interesting development at Old Trafford.

 

[harmoniousmonk]

So much for that

 

[deacvision7]

5 out of 6. 15 points. Onto the R16 draw!

 

[timdunkandthefunk]

Sure would be swell if Liverpool could win today.

 

[BTB]

Liverpool presumably going with it’s standard 4-3-3 with Coutinho joining Can and Wijnaldum in the midfield and a front 3 of Salah, Mane and Firmino. That’s some serious firepower. Back 4 of Gomez, Klavan, Lovren and Moreno.

If Liverpool score the first goal, they may win by 3 or 4. If they give up the first, there’ll be a serious Moscow bus parked in the defensive 3rd.

Beautiful passing and build up on the 2nd goal

 

[timdunkandthefunk]

3-0. What lead could be safer!!

 

[PalmettoDeac19]

One more goal and we might hold on

 

[timdunkandthefunk]

Mane, Salah, Countinho, Firmino counterattack is absurd. Moscow falling over themselves trying to get back.

Mane, Salah, Countinho, Firmino counterattack is absurd. Moscow falling over themselves trying to get back.

Opening yourself up when Liverpool have those 4 on the field together is suicidal but what other option does Moscow have?

Moreno crying as he walks off. Hopefully he didn't break a bone in his foot.

 

[BillBrasky]

Come on you Ruskies, get mad and start dolling out some strains and pulls left and right. We need 3 or 4 short term injuries.

 

[BTB]

Moreno crying as he walks off. Hopefully he didn't break a bone in his foot.

Have to think we're going to find out a lot about Andy Robertson in the next few weeks.

 

[timdunkandthefunk]

5-0. Demolishing them.

 

[BTB]

5-0. Demolishing them.

Since the loss to Spurs at Wembley, Liverpool have scored 3 or more goals in 8 of 9 games played.

 

[harmoniousmonk]

6-0 and Salah has 5.75 fantasy points. Not my day

 

[BTB]

7-0. Salah gets one.

How I rank the teams Liverpool could face in the round of 16 from most want to play to least want to play:

Porto
Basel
Shakhtar
Juve
Madrid
Bayern

Email from a friend who is a City supporter:

Pot 1:
United
PSG
Roma
Barca
Liverpool
City
Bestikas
Spurs

Pot2:
Basel
Bayern
Chelsea
Juventus
Sevilla
Shakhtar
Porto
Real Madrid


City, Liverpool and United all with a 50% chance of getting Bayern, Juventus or Real Madrid.

Chelsea with a 2 in 3 chance of PSG or Barca. Basel, I think, would be City’s preferred draw. Or Porto. Same for Liverpool. United would probably want Porto or Sevilla – avoid the trip to Donetsk.
