UEFA Champions League (Part 1)

They have us down to 16% after that draw.

Wow, huge if true.

Mainly because they rate Inter quite well I think? City and Bayern’s probabilities went up in part because they now have a higher chance of making it to the quarters…

The thick cunt. :grin:

The games before and after we play Inter.

Apparently we’ve had more CL draws today than Everton have ever had.

Does it really matter who our next victims are?

Not a lot of travelling which is good

Still a better comment than Joe Cole remarking that Atletico vs United would be “two exciting, high octane teams going at it”.

Comprehensive info from Swiss Ramble, as ever. Cheers.

Our prize money so far is highest, with Bayern Munich. Our overall revenue is reduced due to finishing third last season, and our coefficient over ten years not being as good as some others.

Good money to be made to keep advancing, obviously.

Oh yeah, and the prestige of winning number 7 won’t be too bad!

the amount of money generated for clubs purely on “coefficient” aka “reputation” is obscene. the money being generated by it is appaling and it boggles the mind to know how much corruption is going on behind the scenes.

We have a few more years of lower coefficient because of the one or two times we missed out in Europe in the past 10 years, is this correct?

Just checked, we have 3 years where we had a coefficient of 0!

not certain but thinking that’s probably a thing.

I thought it was 5 years which surely must be at an end now or close to that final in the Future Europa would have dropped off mind and one year of nothing but dunno how it works.

This is really odd. The year we won the damn thing we still got a lower coefficient than Barca and Chelsea, how does that figure?! Ten-year club coefficients | UEFA Coefficients | UEFA.com

He didn’t say they would be playing football. :wink:

You get coefficient points for winning/drawing group games, winning a group, and winning knockout games. We went 3-3 in our group, Barca won theirs with 4 wins and 2 draws - and really, only won one less knockout match than LFC. We just won the last one.

Similarly, Chelsea won the Europa League that year, with 5 wins in the group. You get more for CL knockout rounds, but that extra round in the EL provides the opportunity to pick up quite a few.
