Was that another one of those famous European nights?

Spurs taken the "we need concentrate at the end of the match" advice from the Sherooch to heart

Arrrrrgghhhhh!
Still in with a chance.

Huge win for Tottenham.

Should be enough to ensure that they commit resources to the improbable and, in so doing divert them from the league.

Our resident whoppers have gone a bit quiet...

red star did a liverpool on us, it was one of those famous european rajko mitic stadium nights
harried chased pressed and they took their chances, no real complaints

still top of the group, nothing to fret about yet, unlike spuds

Klopp must take full responsibility for that defeat. Why on earth did he disrupt a so far magnificent defense by playing Matip the donkey? Our next game is at home to the bottom club on Sunday. WTF was he thinking.
We now need to win against Napoli at home and get a draw against Cities corruption specialist stablemates in Paris. Why oh why do we make it so hard on ourselves?

Derby didn't play in Europe last night.
Neither did Forest.
Or Villa.

Wait.
Oh.

2nd actually, or joint top as you probably call it.

A-ma-zing...

Also...

i was quoting the bbc who had us top for some reason
joint top sounds just as good, especially after last night

Um but we are second though.
If we were third or 'joint second' after all the games we'd be playing on Thursdays with the other donkeys.

I see you're currently 'joint second' in the Premiershit as well...

Yup, they're now joint second on points difference.

Or third as most people call it.

Or goal difference, as most people call it.

I'm guessing they didn't have the correct table sorting algorithm associated with those tables and just had the default (PTS > GD > GF > Alphabetical).

Liverpool are below Napoli as they're both on 6 points but the first tiebreaker for teams on the same points is points in head-to-head games (and Napoli won their only encounter in the group stage 1-0, so they go above Liverpool).

The CL tiebreakers for this season are:-

1. Points in head-to-head matches among tied teams;
   
2. Goal difference in head-to-head matches among tied teams;
   
3. Goals scored in head-to-head matches among tied teams;
   
4. Away goals scored in head-to-head matches among tied teams;
   
5. If more than two teams are tied, and after applying all head-to-head criteria above, a subset of teams are still tied, all head-to-head criteria above are reapplied exclusively to this subset of teams;
   
6. Goal difference in all group matches;
   
7. Goals scored in all group matches;
   
8. Away goals scored in all group matches;
   
9. Wins in all group matches;
   
10. Away wins in all group matches;
    
11. Disciplinary points (red card = 3 points, yellow card = 1 point, expulsion for two yellow cards in one match = 3 points);
    
12. UEFA club coefficient.
    
    

(For a previous website I had to write the table sorting algorithms, they get pretty complex for something that isn't just as simple as PTS > GD > GF > Alphabetical. And more annoying they tend to change slightly every year...)

Boro to narrowly miss out on the EPL on league difference.

Sterling

Wow... Such skills.

Much honesty.

Boro to narrowly miss out on the EPL on league difference.

I thought net spend was taken into account first?

You’ve got a short/selective memory.

Offended by everything, ashamed by nothing.

It’s selective, not short. He can still remember Liverpool winning the League.

Yawn. They take it to the next level
