Man City without Rodri kinda suck.

Madrid also suck? Adding Mbappe and getting worse is certainly something.

They miss Toni Kroos so badly. They don't have anyone who can dictate the pace of a match and play the passes to unleash their attackers

Well...Leverkusen got taught today.

Nice to see Diaz get on the scoresheet and run-outs for our backup wingbacks.

Arsenal’s season collapsing ridiculously early.

At least we’re still in the FA Cup until January.

Well...if your squad is that thin then fewer games might help you focus your energies elsewhere?

Still feels too early to write off Arsenal or Man City. They are scuffling right now, but it's not even the second week of November. Man City have more trouble though cause Rodri ain't coming back, at least Arsenal have gotten Odegaard back.

I still don't understand this Champions League format.
Are we in trouble?

Top 24 make the knockouts, 1-8 get a bye and 9-24 play into the R16. Arsenal might be in trouble of getting a bye, but it would take a true implosion for them to not make the knockouts.

Conference League sucks, but learning that there is both a) a club called FC Noah and b) they are Armenian, almost makes it worthwhile. Bring on SOAD FC.

Yeah watching teams who are using literal Burger King employee lose 19-0 to one of the most expensive teams ever is definitely great.

sure but despite that, they finished 2nd in the league. They won FOUR rounds to get to the league stage (first ever to do so), including beating once Greek powers AEK Athens. And they've won a match in the league stage so 24th place is a realistic goal.

I think Conference League would be better off not involving top leagues and just having the others competing.

You should set that up

I'd say pretty even.
