[Paul68]

All this banging on about come backs greatest ever etc...

Rags’ chances of landing Pochettino are roughly on a par with Newcastle’s.

If he wins the CL, his next stop is Juve/Real Madrid/Bayern/etc.[/quote]

Not a hope in hell of Poch going to the swamp especially if he wins chumps league. The red shit are now shopping at the bargain store . They will be replacing the hobbit before the chumps league group games start but not with Poch who will be abroad next

I hope you 2 are right. But they will be desperate.

Good for them - they never learn. Let's just keep on keeping on in the league & who knows we may need two buses ourselves come the end of next weekend to ferry all the trophies around

On a ferry to Santander, rough sea, seasick to fuck, the thought of us fucking up v Brighton and dippers wining league and CL double, is making me lose the will to live

Away at Spurs
3 - 0 down at half time
Barton sent off (of course)

We win 3 - 4

Not too shabby
I was there!

I think this competition needs another name after the final is played by the 3rd and 4th places in English football last season.

CL could be won by a team that has lost thirteen league games

Amazing that isn't it?
As pointed out earlier in this thread, both finalists spewed the FA cup to avoid fixture congestion - albeit in spurs' case, by accident, however, I believe we would need to clear our calendars of the FA cup if we wanted to have a serious go at the chumps league. The backlash from these pair of muppet teams reaching this years' final will be resounding around Abu Dhabi & it is going to raise priorities- type questions for us.

For me, we need to tick off the back-to-back titles first & winning a domestic clean sweep would be unprecedented & something that would be unlikely to be repeated. That could leave us going into next season looking for a league & chumps league double as well as treble league champions. I'm not trying to disrespect any domestic cups, I've been to them all since '76, but we cannot compete in the latter stages of the chumps league whilst trying to play in the FA cup

Or we could have just beaten spuds. Or gotten fair VAR decisions and we'd have been through...

If I've looked at this correctly, the CL has only been won once by the reigning English champion since 83/84. (Obviously Liverpool's fans' behaviour has some impact on that statistic).

This is the 23rd season that multiple clubs from the same country have been allowed in the competition. In that time, the competition will have been won by the reigning champion of the respective league 10 times, while 13 times it's been won by runner up or lower (providing the worst doesn't happen this season). The Champions League has only been won by the reigning champions of their domestic league once in the past 7 seasons (more-than-likely to become once in the past 8 at the end of this season).

Pochettino should know a thing or two about the old Southampton team he managed come the CL final .

This season has reiterated how impossible a quadruple really is. The squad would be out on it’s feet right now if we had had two grueling CL semifinal legs to navigate.

The only way it can possibly be done is favorable draws in the cups AND a huge points cushion in the league. We got one of those this season but not both.

So, if dippers or spuds won CL, and we won treble, which is the highest achievement?

Anything that the dippers win clearly

Combined 87 years since they were champions of England

I thought dippers won it in 2014, oh forgot that was us, but it didn’t count
