Next years CL seeding (16 Viewers)

Yeah, one guy even gave me a -rep for that post. He tried to hide by not leaving his name. He obviosly doesn't know that i do magic and i can see his name if i look at my magic ball.

I see R and i see an A, then i see M and then one letter can not be seen, but the name surely ends with an N. Then i see 4 numbers.

Hey guys, leave your names when you give -rep.

Sorry mate, I wanted to +rep you, probably hit the wrong button.

These are the teams I think/hope won't qualify for the CL next year.

AC Milan(maybe), Liverpool(maybe), Sevilla(maybe), Newcastle United(will not), Valencia(will not), Werder Bremen (maybe)

You're forgetting AZ ALkamar and Benfica

AZ doesn't even have a chance to qualify

i see it coming ... like before this season ...

now you say it would be a success if we make it out of the group stage and next season, when we rule our group you curse him for losing in the semi-final or something like that

I'd be disappointed if we blew a good chance to go further, but my objective is to get out of the group.

exactly my point ..

benfica has hope .. but they're struggling

Lose in the semi's? You guys all know where the final will be played, right? Now people always say history repeats itself. Let's prove 'em right

I'm an optimist in this case.
7 of the teams above us mustn't make it to the CL.

New Castle, Valencia and AZ Alkmaar are certainly out of CL, which leaves us 4 more teams.

These are the teams that may miss out on CL

1. Milan - if they finish 5th or worse, which is still a 50-50 possibility
2. Sevilla- they are 5 points behind 4th placed Atletico, 8 rounds till the end.
3. Sporting- they are 5 points behind the CL spot, 6 rounds till the end. Forza Guimaraes and please win a CL spot in Portugal.
4. Benfica - similar as Sporting
5. Schalke or Werder. Since 3 German teams will play CL, at least one of Werder or Schalke mustn't make it to CL. Hamburg are second atm and we can hope they'll keep the 2nd or 3rd spot till the end.

Also, maybe a surprise will happen in CL qualifiers and some of the teams placed above us in UEFA standings will be eliminated.

It doesn't look too bad. Our chances to be in pot 2 are 50-50

 

[Omair]

Well those are exactly the team I excluded in my count .. We could make second pot but if we do we'd be eighth or seventh seed at best .. Hence we'll "barely make it" ..

I'm as much of an optimist as you are .. Alen, my friend .. ..

But one thing for sure .. Make it to the knockouts and we'll be sure second pot seed a year from now ..

Hey, I like Guimarães. But Sporting is the coolest team going in Portugal, however.

You know .. if Viola do good in UEFA cup and Roma, miraculously, beat ManUtd .. we might not need Schalke and Sporting not to qualify .. Country coefficient boost ..

well .. too much probabilities .. but a solid chance ..

Country coeffiecient will not do the job. It goes up only be decimals, even if Viola and Roma make it to the final, or win the whole thing.

Currently the country coeffiecient for Italy is 3.1760 , and this is for the last 5 seasons. Imagine how little will be added if Fiorentina and Roma do good.
It won't go higher than 3.3000 and it won't help us at all.

Ow .. ok then ..

screw both of them .. useless teams ...

EDIT: on another thought .. currently the difference between us and Schalke is only 0.12 .. this boost can do something .. can't it ?

Actually, it can. I didn't notice that the difference between us and Schalke is minimal.

But for this to happen Schalke must lose from Barcelona (lose the 2nd leg), while Roma and Fiorentina will have to gain more points than Levercusen and Bayern.

 

[Omair]

meh .. screw that .. let time do it's job and pass while we sit back and see ..

 

[David01]

it is very simple, if we can't beat the team we face in the prelliminary round we have nothing to do in the CL
I'm not worried at all, we beat all the big teams in Italy and we are bound to have a better squad next season

 

[Boksic]

the annoying thing is that unless we do very very well in the champs league over the next few seasons our seeding is always going to be crap because it will take 4 seasons to get rid of our lack of involvement over the past 2 seasons.

solution - we will just need to build a team so great that seeding doesn't matter

 

[PrimeAbuse]

if we qualified to the CL we shouldn't care who we face, they should be scared to be playing with us in the same grop as we will be the underdogs and everybody knows what happens when Juves are underdogs

couldnt agree more on this one

great avatar.

I think you shouldn't be worry about seeding for CL draw. You all know that milan was winning for us in previous years, so we will be in pot 1 definitely.
