    Barcelona and Man City (barring a huge goal difference turnaround) through.

    Leicester, Monaco, Besiktas, Copenhagen and Lyon going through would make things more interesting (the first two having already qualified).

    Isn't it done on head to head? That's why Tottenham are out, right?

    Why are Arsenal second with 11 points and +9, behind PSG with 11 points and +6 then?

    I haven't a clue.

    I guess the UEFA pdf must be out of date, or at least that's implied by the tables everywhere and the media saying Spurs are out.

    In other news, Neymar might (almost certainly won't) go to prison: http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/...linkname=sport

    It working that way explains the PSG/Arsenal thing though, since two draws mean they have the same points from those games, the same goal difference and the same goals scored in total, but tonight's two each means PSG have more goals away from home.

    To me it looks like: 17:01 a) goal difference in general, then e) head-to-head.

    Although given what all the media's saying you're probably right.

    The wording is shit, either way.

    Benfica are listed ahead of Napoli on the thing I'm looking at, with a worse goal difference and a worse head to head record. Life is sometimes confusing.

    If A was superior general goal difference then how could F be 'superior goal difference in all matches'?

    I heard this story earlier and was absolutely stumped at how this was possible, like some joke team were playing an 8 year old for the lols and then I realised what year it was and nearly threw myself in front of the oncoming tram.

    It still feels like something of a threshold though.

    Christ, Rooney has actually scored and it wasn't a mistake.

    He's back?

    Genuinely sickening that he's our top scorer in Europe over Ruud.

    As suspected the break didn't do Dundalk much good. A lot of the intensity was gone and they were probably better playing games every 3 days. Bound to be a bit of a let-up when your season ends too.

    Still though, still a chance of qualifying going into the last round of games. Couldn't have asked any better than that.

    The ref in the Liverpool-Sunderland game (David Ellery, I think), seems to get in the way (literally) of every one of our attacks. He just stands right in the middle of the last third, blocking passes far better than any Sunderland midfielder.

    This. At least 3/4 times.

    As above.

    Coutinho didn't look too good so hopefully nothing serious. Mane is playing the worst so far but aye, shit so far. Win though and it's a sign of....

    Sunderland have been good defensively.

    I'd go for broken foot for Coutinho, maybe ankle at worst. Hopefully it wasn't his shin bone either.

    Klopp <3. It's hard to think of many managers we've had who would get away with that. Good win even if we weren't at our best.

    Swansea match is absolutely bonkers.

    Let this sink in. He clearly tried passing it to Clyne but fucked up however if that's the best you've got then give up. He's been improving each game and was generally solid today, good couple of important game changing saves too. Give the guy some credit. I already feel more at ease with him, Lovren and Matip than with Mingolet at the back.
