Nahh can't see them changing much at all. They'll pretty much know at this stage what teams will drop down tbf- the best possible side who can drop in is Seville, but even that's very unlikely and the odds will represent that. The rest won't really matter a shit.

Reigning champs though and have won it 3 of the last 5 or something. Game changer in odds terms if they do drop into it.

Not really what Bunks was getting at... anyway who gives a shit, we're a long way from either possibility at this stage.

But the chances of them dropping into it are really low, hence our odds and it being represented. Bookies think of everything.

True, they do.

Unlike me who's just charged blind into a bet with big Bunkers. I do want to lose though.

Will give you 11/8 that we're not 11/2 come the start of the next round.....

Just looked at it and Spurs, Lisbon, Lyon all likely to be in it. Big chance of one of Benfica/Napoli too, and possibility of Porto as well.

Some decent sides there.

the odds may well change, dependent on teams dropping into the wooden spoon comp, but that does not change the fact that the odds already reflect cl teams dropping in.

Spurs may see it as their best chance of CL and they have a cup side look about them. Would be a £#%&!er if we came 4th and they won it - I assume you don't get 5 slots?

Nobody said they didn't.

We would. Spain currently have five in the Champs League as Sevilla didn't qualify by other means.

edit: except Villarreal went out in the qualifiers, but yeah, five CL spots.

Either contribute to the thread or £#%&! off with your (incorrect) assumptions about a bunch of strangers. We're having a conversation, not a too red dick-swinging match mate.
Can you please not quote the fat shit?

I have it on ignore so I don't have to read it's driveling effluence.

Christ that is pathetic.
This isn't mourinho's team. If anyone's going to sort that team out, it's him.

It's the mental fragility of the team at the moment. Unless he has a Robson or Keane sat on the bench, I don't see what mourinho can do to change that once the players sink into that mentality.

You're AOTS

We were awful today btw. Nothing like recent performances. Created next to £#%&! all and only went ahead through a piece of luck.
What luck was that?

We're a lot closer to getting the best out of them than the previous 3 seasons. We'll be the best team in the country after Christmas.

Still producing shite? It already £#%&!ing miles better than the shite of the past 3 years.

£#%&! top 4. Setting the bar so low is a loser's mentality. Actually looking forward to games again and being optimistic for where the team is heading for the first time since we sold ronaldo. Try and win every game and see where we end up.

indeed. but when you (well, sizlers) are comparing current odds to show what is a more likely outcome, you can't qualify one set. the odds on our league position will change too. after we lose our next four games, maybe.

anyway, we are £#%&!ed in both competitions whilst we have a @#%&! in charge who thinks bringing on fellaini makes sense.

Yes the odds will change as the landscape changes that's the nature of odds Getting in while your confident before the odds fall or if ive put the bet on climb of course


Somebody asked what is our best chance of qualifying for the Champions league, and according to the bookies (who are the indisputably the biggest experts in the world playing the game of chance btw) AT THIS MOMENT the league is our best chance. It not rocket science is it. Its black and white. It not open to discussion or conjecture the professionals estimate we have almost twice as much chance of finishing top 4 than winning the uefa cup. If you don't agree then take them to the cleaners we are 4/11 to finish outside the top 4 so put your millions on that since your so confident
