The only real factor about winning tomorrow is financial despite what Gerrard says. Fuck playing Ajax. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloUSAGers 1,247 Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 If we win tomorrow than we can’t draw Benfica in the round of 32 and nobody else is going to want Benfica. They could be the best unseeded team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parma99 116 Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 The financial benefit is the most important thing. Win tomorrow night and that brings in another million (win bonus plus top group bonus) Take anyone in the last 32, a glamour tie or a relatively winnable tie. Either way it's great to have the draw to look forward to. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Misteral 2,932 Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 Apart from the money which is pretty important there is a huge advantage in topping the group and being seeded. And I mean huge. I'm not naming the likely looking lists of seeded v unseeded here but you'll see what I mean if you have a good look. I hope SG has. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd like a crack at them as it would be great test for us. We would definitely need everyone firing on the day Going forward they are dangerous and they have a top midfielder in that Fernández. But at the back they can be got at it for sure. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could have tagged me, I'm right here, lol I hate Man U mate, always have. I'm not praising them, just stating they have a lot of dangerous players. As for Sevillia, I watched them two weeks ago only because I had a wager and they were rubbish that night. Just calling it as I saw it rather than quote what they have done in Europa over the last decade. Something not quite right about all the Spanish clubs so far this year.

KaiserJon 12,404 Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 Also the Europa league is much, much less commercialised, Take that to a degree. The bit after that about enjoying the game for the games sake. I never seem to be able to do that when we play anyone so you are wrong. @tannerall Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
