Dont all the place teams go into the Europa league? Think the best four are seeded, not 100 % sure though
Well that just put a damper on my day. I thought it was only four, but that makes sense... I hope they end up against Napoli if they go this way and the FSW humiliates them twice.
 
So looking at the CL Group Stages with a game left to go, 3 of the 4 teams likely to enter the Europa league round of 32 are:
Olympiakos (on 6 pts, and play Malmo in final game)
Zenit(on 7 pts, play Monaco next)
Schalke (on 5 pts, play Maribor next)
Olympiakos and Schalke will likely get points out of those games, and probably wins, putting them on 9 and 8 respectfully.

If the reds***e win they would go through to the next round of the Champions League. If they tie or lose they end up with 5 or 4 points, which wouldn't put them into the Europa League because Anderlecht and CSKA Moscow are both on 5 at the moment and also Athletic Bilbao who have 4 points play BATE Borisov at home in their final match.

Basically, there is almost no chance that they will make it into the Europa League if they get a point from Basel to bring them to 5 points.

Sadly, that's not correct. They already have the first tiebreaker against Ludogorets (win and a draw over the two legs), so the Bulgarian side has to better the Turds' result against Basel. If the Turds beat Basel, they finish second in the group and make the final 16 in the CL. If they draw or lose (assuming Ludogorets gets the same result), they finish third and drop to the CL, likely as one of the four unseeded third-place teams. They lose and Ludogorets gets a draw at Real Madrid (or draw and Ludo gets the upset win of all time) and the Turds are done like the proverbial dinner.
Even if they finish among the top four third-place finishers and get seeded in the EL draw, we can't play them in the round of 32. Nor can we play Spurs or Wolfsburg.
 
This Stevie G CCTV lark......so everyone is getting done apart from the man who allegedly threw the first punch and caused all the trouble......is that right.......
