we're 4th now as spain have overtaken us .Here is how the points are calculated Points system Points are awarded as follows: 2 – All wins from group stage (UCL, UEL, UECL) 1 – All wins in qualifying and play-off matches (UCL, UEL, UECL) 1 – All draws from group stage (UCL, UEL, UECL) 0.5 – All draws in qualifying and play-off matches (UCL, UEL, UECL) 4 – Group stage bonus participation (UCL) 4 – Round of 16 bonus participation (UCL) 4 – Group winners (UEL) 2 – Group runners-up (UEL) 2 – Group winners (UECL) 1 – Group runners-up (UECL) 1 – Each round clubs reach from the round of 16 (UCL, UEL) 1 – Each round clubs reach from the semi-finals (UECL)
they all help. The thing about this is it is far far too early to say where the final numbers will fall. For exmaple: 2022/23 england had a score of 23 Italy were 22.352 and nobody else was even lose to that. If you look at the later stages of the CL. It was AC milan v inter in one semi and City v real in the other. Napoli made the quarters. If you look at the europa the semis were juve, roma, seville and leverkusne and roma were in the final Again the conference league had Fiorentina in the final. Right now Germany are having a great time. lets look at the reality though. Bayern topped thier group - city top thiers union berlin were bottom of thier group - read newcastle dortmund won thier group - read arsneal leipzig were second in thier group - utd shambles freiburg might top their group or west ham might Leverkusen top their group- we top ours frankfurt 2nd in conference group. villa top thier group in conference So right now the deficit is really down to man utd being ****. IN the CL its down to which teams will go further. Bayern/Dortmund v City/Arsenal. Liepzig are germany's bonus in the Europa its really down to Liverkusen or us and west sham v fireburg is never going to go deep in The conference its down to villa winning the thing. theres ample points to play for and the further sides go the more points accumulate. FOr the record italy are the other league to note we see 2 2nd places and 1 3rd place so they all get harder last 16 games and milan to to round of 32 in europa. in the euopa roma are only 2nd and atlanta first so again lets ee as one of those will be i nthe last 4 IN conference again fieoentina won their and will be in last 4 with villa. Really yes utd going out has an impact now but this could all change massively and become an non issue by the QF stage. There might be no italians left i nthe CL after last 16 for all we know and then really the thing is no issue. same for germany. You could be down to just bayern in the QF. who knows.
Here’s one, arteta avoided disciplinary action because using the word disgrace is fine if your Spanish because it sounds like desgracia which means bad luck rather than dishonest… so language and words meaning one thing in one language and something else in another is now acceptable to use anyway… where has that come up and been an issue before Add in the fact he also said was embarrassing, he 100% knew what he meant.
it's pretty clear that abusing a ref is OK really. that's what they've done twice now. haaland and arteta have been told they can do it with impunity
not necessarally. I looked at germany and it looks tight but if you look at italy and spain Italy have hit 12.871 germany now 12.642 Spain 12.187 england 11.875. there is less than a point in it and in the end thats 1 round more in a competition. Italy teams: Napoli and inter finished 2nd in groups. so right now there's a fair chance they draw city or arsenal. that will in itself be crucial Milan are back in last 32 of europa. roma will be in last 32 due to being 2nd in group atlanta are last 16. West ham, LFC and brighton are all into last 16. a bad europa league last 32 draw with a 3rd placed CL team and roma could be out for exmaple. who knows. Spain teams: seville totally out of europe 4th in gourp real won grup and will go deep as usual Real sociadad won the group. do we really think they will go much further? atelcio won the group too. they might go far real betis are out of europa villareal won thier group into last 16. Of the 4 nations. Italy are by far the least likely to progress in the CL and i nthe europa they are qf type teams. spain have 1 side really to watch so will struggle to accumulate points. Englands issue is its City and LFC with a flaky arsenal side and 2 no hopers in brighton and west ham who have absolutely no idea of the jump in standard coming their way. last year it wasn't even close between 2nd and 3rd. what we would want to see is favourable draws in the CL where the field is cut down rapidly. Bayern and real will go deep but so will city so all 3 nations will race. A lot of points are locked in now but more are to come. I think England can still get 19 or 20 points but it will be tight as averages come into play.
You're using the wrong coefficients. The new rankings after last night are ... Italy 14.00 Germany 13.64 England 13.63 Spain 12.69 Czechia 12.00 Belgium 11.60 France 11.58 Turkey 10.50 Netherlands 8.60 Denmark 8.50
