Match Day Thread Dortmund v Totteringham - Europey

... looks like HIAG will get the chance to have his credentials examined other than by Rupert

 

This game is only of passing iterest seeing as 2 huge clubs have been drawn against each other. Dortmund to win easily.

 

Should be 2 cracking games here, tie of the round for me

 

As a neutral (although I do support any British team in Europe) I have to say that I would much rater see the Dortmund Spurs encounter than anouther bore draw home counties derby

 

Fiorentina are a very good side. Currently third in Serie A. Yet, we have them a spanking. I hope they actually don't realise it, but Dortmund are in for one hell of a fight!

 

About time somebody looked at things sensibly!..

 

...I don't think the Italian league is the strongest tbf ... Fiorentina were ranked 43rd on UEFAs pre season rankings ... 2 places behind Metalist Kharkin and 3 below the Mousers ..... Dortmund on the other hand

 

Not really the way to judge it, is it? Where were Leicester ranked?

Serie A is ranked 4th, below La Liga, the Prem and the Bundesliga.
Fiorentina are currently third, above the likes of Roma, Inter, Milan and Lazio.
Should we view your side as being crap, as they weren't ranked highly at the start of the season?

 

It's going to be tough, no doubt about that; but you'd have to say that the winner of this match is going to be one of the favourites to lift the trophy. If we can beat Dortmund over two legs, we deserve to be considered one of the favourites, too.

 

UEFA's rankings are horseshit. The Bundesliga ain't exactly the strongest in Europe, to say the least.

Like I say, I hope Dortmund think they're in for an easy time!

 

No we are top of the Prem ... so allowing for your league rankings that should place Fiorentina somewhere close to Palace ... so you should be doubly pleased given the result at the weekend

 

Spurs and Giants

 

You and Palace probably have a similar UEFA ranking. None.
I'd guess that they've actually won a European game at some point, though.
Wonder if you'll break your duck next season after half of your team have left? Probably not.

 

Sorry, but this is about teams in Europe. Come back next season, please.

... has Daniel Levy joined us? Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo somebody jail him ... Bail set at £85 million .... bang goes that then ... Groundhog day

 

You don't seem to understand how the transfer window works, unfortunately.
Don't worry. You'll find out soon.

 

... don't judge every club by your own club's 'selling club' mentality ... we have only sold players surplus to requirements since King Power took over ... contrast that with Spuds under Daniel Levy's Trotter's Independent Traders regime ... no money back, no guarantee

 

Ouch!
