16 - Fermín López

And English champions got schooled and barely finished top 24. No it is not, from top top bottom.

While Arsenal schooled the La Liga champions who did not make it all that high up in league either.

Yes the top teams are up there with the top in Europe and below that far far ahead.

English teams won every other trophy there was to win and as said x3 went out to best team in Competition.

Farily changed your tune from shiting yourself about Newcastle away a yesterday.

Gonna see how Villa, Forrest, and Palace do in EL and ECL also.

Does it matter how teams do there?

Whats the rules?

Of course it does. The top sides in EPL prove themselves vs top sides in other leagues in CL, and the good sides in EL and ECL.

Chelsea close to sign Buonanotte and Simons going to Spurs, think this Fermin talk is all media BS.

I agree. No way anyone was going to be paying 50-60mil for Fermin.

The top sides in EPL I would put in a group with PSG, Real, Barca and Bayern and can see how they look once it gets going as to who from that looks like the favs.

Remember you last season scoffing at folk saying PSG would be one of the favs and toughest teams Barca could face in Jan/Feb time. Teams emerge.

Don't think Chelsea, Arsenal, did enough to be put in that group. Barca neither for that matter.

It is where see them this season.

Last season you said Liverpool and Real had proved the most... others said PSG looked better.

Can wait and see.

Who are the top teams in CL?

 

[serghei]

Top favorites have to be PSG and Madrid, then Bayern, Barca just about top 4-5, joined by Arsenal. Chelsea could be a dark horse. Hard to say Liverpool since they changed several players.

Basically just say last two winners are favs and go from there.

Could be.

What have Bayern done to be ahead of Barca for example?

Could be.

Madrid upgraded their team in poor positions, could be a factor. And more motivation after a failed season.

Mainly knocking out Arsenal in 2024 back when they had issues in the league (ended up losing to Leverkusen). Still a solid team that has experience in beating highly rated clubs in Europe.

Real should be one of the favs but it remains to be seen how their approach translates at top level.

Why would Bayern be ahead of Barca, City, Liverpool etc?

So that matters but losing to Inter last season doesnt?

Or losing to Villareal the year before.

Makes no sense as it cant.

They fecked up vs Inter but had them as the better side, much like us. The differrence is they have a bit more of a track record in CL. Close call though between Barca and Bayern.
