Maybe the cunts at FA now are understanding what they are doing to EPL? The tough schedule to satisfy Sky's every wish is killing PL teams in Europe.

Or that's the only reason I can come up with why all PL teams are out.
All the teams?

Sorry GAF, I'm going to milk this until we get knocked out in the quarters.

City losing 2-0 has nothing to do with the state of football in this country.

Where did I mention City in my post? I have always thought the Premier League herp derp best league in the world was hyperbole, and Its driven by Sky and Talkshite plus shitty tabloids.

I just assumed you were talking about City seeing as you made your post shortly after the second goal.

The premiership has it's strengths just like teams from it have shown in Europe over the past few years but I don't think many knowledgeable football fans have bought into the best league in the world tag.

Kinda makes mo wonder if Ferguson threw away the Europa League to focus on the Premier League. Seriously that formation and only having Rooney on the attack was a mistake. You know something is wrong when Rooney has to drop so effin deep to get the ball.

From my not terribly well informed point of view I would have France and Portugal tied.

I'd say there's a few more stronger teams in France than in Portugal, but fairly even yeah.

I would put us above France. Uefa ranking is giving me the reason to do so :p

Haha England are top of UEFA as well :(

Maybe. I dunno, I don't watch enough Portuguese football I suppose, rather uneducated of me I guess.
 
^ sounds about right.

Btw. on Sunday we'll have a small preview of the most likely Euro League final: Bilbao vs. Valencia.
Valencia haven't lost vs. Bilbao for 6 consecutive games and won 5 of them.
(although they drew in the first leg this season)

However, Hanover shouldn't be underestimated either.

Huntelaar scores his second on a pk (handball).

Schalke is one away from advancing and given how shitty Twente looks this half, it'll probably happen.

"There is a marked difference between the atmosphere here and the one that greeted Chelsea's players as they came out at Stamford Bridge looking to overturn their own deficit against Napoli. Chelsea, of course, fed very successfully off that backing. City have been as flat as their fans."
