Juve can focus on the local league + winning the eufa league isn't bad

Yep agree with this. Gala might be a tougher team to beat but they should have taken 6 points from Copenhagen

What a load of bullshit. Whatever , we've played like shit since the very first match, excluding the two games against Real Madrid. I still think we deserved to go through, but only because Galatasaray are dreadful and are gonna be murdered by whatever team they pick in the round of 16, while we would have stood a better chance probably.
The way I feel now, winning the Europa League (in Turin, on top of it) is more important than the third consecutive Italian title. Considering the competition, that's hardly an accomplishment in this day and age, while we have A LOT to prove on the international stage.

Shit
Too long to help us in the most difficult (theoretically) run of the season, not long enough to make us buy a CM in January
Rossiter pls
We should definitely go for it. But I want the league too goddammit!
And Coppa Italia!

It's fair because we didn't win the early games we should have.

You can have the cups, let Napoli win the league. Deal?
Well Spurs aren't winning it. AVB being shit will make sure of that. Some strong teams going into the Europa now.
Juventus, Benfica, Ajax/Milan, Arsenal/Napoli, Basel/Schakle, Shakhtar all Europa league bound.
Mancini = Juve nemesis. I should have seen this coming.
Such a weird Group stage this year. Arsenal and Man City have been the most impressive English teams are we could see both in second place while Man Utd and Chelsea have been merely adequate and we could both see both for first place.
Ha, never. I'd rather lose everything but the scudetto.
Most of those teams never take the Europa League seriously (same with Man Utd and Man City when they dropped into the competition and were promptly knocked out). Chelsea did last year because Benitez knew he wasn't staying beyond the season and could gamble on Premier league form. Juve will only do so this year because the final is in their stadium.

I just checked the criteria for the draw and apparently we wouldn't be seeded either, since we're not among the top four third-placed Champions League rejects :/ Watch us lose to Tottenham or Valencia now... At least we can't draw Fiorentina, Lazio and Napoli.
Hell if an Italian team doesn't win the Europa League this year then it's never gonna happen.
No worries, we can take pretty much anyone in EL.
Gala is going through with -6 gd
And half team already booked. They obviously just cared for the money.
You can add Porto as they are going into the Europa as well.

The ladri are knocked out of the CL, and Honda is officially our new #10, per the Gold Tie himself.
Great morning.
Great morning.
^that's one way of looking at it, fair enough!
Or last game today, you never know.
Better enjoy your last season in Europe then!

I hope we play you guys in the EL, I've always wanted to watch a primavera match in high definition.

And after a precious draw earned at Livorno, you're only 22 points off first place in the league. Everything's coming up Frank.
There's so much potential drama from the draw.
Drogba returning to Stamford Bridge. Which would be emotional for me as a Chelsea and Galatasaray fan. I'd have to go to that match. And would be very conflicted.
Or Galatasaray playing Arsenal, Drogba continuing his fine form against them. I would probably only be able to get into the Arsenal end.
Galatasaray Athletico, Arda playing against his former club. No chance I can go to this, but would be interesting.
Imagine Olympiakos and Man City came top of their groups. Could've been a Turkey-Greece derby or Mancini returning to City.
