They wouldn't have reached CL even if they had beaten Lazio.

How so? They would've been both on 66 but Napoli would go through on H2H matches.

 

[Mandieta6]

Is the tiebreaker H2H? I thought it was GD, nevermind then.

 

[Dytza]

Yeah, most leagues except PL use H2H nowadays.

 

[kp41]

I think it's goal difference in Bundesliga as well, I prefer that method.

 

[Mus]

I prefer h2h

 

[Dytza]

I prefer H2H too. If the other team was better than you in 2 matches, they should win the title. Beating the relegation battlers 5-0 shouldn't win titles.

that Lazio-Napoli Champions League decider had everything! a raucous crowd, waves of pressure, goals, comebacks, silence, delirium, red cards, penalties, penalty fails, goal-at-your-mercy fails, and a script being thrown out the window ...

it's hilarious that Fatguaín thinks anyone would care that he wants to leave ... they're probably holding the door wide open! (Liverpool will have a stack of stupid cash waiting on the other side, I presume ...)

tbh, I would have preferred Napoli to win, since they might have actually made it to the group stages ... Lazio, though, put on a clinic in counterattacking football, and they deserve their chance ... hopefully they'll keep a hold of Neymar's BFF, and add some squad depth ...

looking forward to seeing if Aurelio De Laurentiis can actually recruit Unai Emery ...

Yeah I mean Luca Toni is a solid goal getter plus he netted almost half his team's goals, it's not that strange that he's on top or nearly there in the goalscoring list, it's not that uncommon for it to happen.

exactly ...

that said, Maurito -- age 22; where is Shifty now? -- is the true capocannoniere anyway, since he scored his 22 goals in fewer games ...

people still wondering why Higuain ended up at Napoli and not PSG/City etc?

 

[ARIAGA II]

It's the very same reason why Argentina are not World champions.

 

[Arnau]

That twat owe Messi a world cup

 

[Deisler]

Gotze > Messi

Why Milan went from selling their stars to suddenly spend big amount in transfers and what is going to happen with that financial fair play bullshit?

Bought by an Asian, they aren't I the CL so I think FFP doesn't hit yet

Cool, i'd love to see Milan and Inter rising again. Serie A is very close to EPL for a CL spot already.

Mihajlovic seems a temporal coach for Ancelotti to comeback in 16/17.

I agree, he has a poor history with the club too so it's easy to remove him

 

[Arnau]

Hahaha Inter took Kondogbia from Milan and Carlos*son can still end up at Atletico.

 

[Mus]

He's too good for either

 

[Arnau]

35m for Kondogbia lol go home Inter, you are drunk.

 

[Mus]

Kovacic is probably for sale

 

[Arnau]

Thats stupid. Typical inter.
