Premier League 2018/19 (28 Viewers)

[Dantes]

We'd beat City easily over two legs. Pool might be a bit difficult

City are a better team than Spurs, and that fixture last year wasn't easy. There aren't any really easy ties in CL.

City's game suits us better than Spurs and they don't have enough experience in CL when compared to Juve

Both City and Liverpool would be contenders for CL. Fortunately, they're locked at the top of the Premier League right now, and I don't think they can mount a title challenge on both fronts.

I'm sorry, but that really can't be an excuse for City. With how much they've spent over the last years, they have to be able to compete on both fronts. I give you Liverpool, but judging by how they play in their group so far, they don't look like a serious contender at all to me.

Maybe if they had a better manager.

Not that I don't value Lyon, they're a good medium-sized club that used to be good in CL, but still, they frigging won against City in England

We had a fatigued team in that period after all the injuries. The reason Spurs' midfield ran over ours, which wasn't great to begin with. Injuries and fatigue magnified that.

Plenty of knockout ties are easy, esp in R16, but yeah, in games between top teams, upsets aren't rare.

That’s what happens when you have Aouar and Ndombele in midfield.

Both those teams are very strong, but very one dimensional tactically which will probably be their undoing in the CL.

Last year's Juve was the weakest it has been under Allegri. This year's team is probably one of the deepest and most powerful Juve squads of all time.

How is it that clubs from all the other leagues can deal with competing on 2 fronts (some 3), its just the english that are somehow exhausted because of it

Just an excuse for Premfaces to cover for their teams' tactical and technical naivete.

I'm not excusing City. I just don't think they have it in them to do both.

It's not. The last four winners are all from Spain.

Italians used the same excuse in the 90s and early 2000s. The idea is premier league is tough because any team can beat you on any given day. With City steamrolling all of the smaller teams 3-0 and 4-0 this is a silly excuse.

so only spanish clubs were "title challengers" last 4 years?

i dont remember tbh but Serie A was definitely the strongest league during the 90s (same way the spanish is now, and similar to mid 2000s EPL) having their teams competing and winning in all european cups each year. bringing up this excuse in such scenario is justified then, but not for the EPL of last 7-8 years, that is the best league only in the minds of their followers

Thats CL but Pool PSG and Napoli I`d definitely want PSG out...
Napoli worries none so even if they qualify they will be out in 1 or 2 rounds...

Liverpool are more of a threat than PSG

+ Fekir and Depay in attack and Mendy making runs on left flank.

Too bad their defense is crap. Could've been a Monaco from couple of yrs ago.

Both were terrible.

Both were terrible.

Both comments, yes.
