That's not being fair.
I was shocked tbh. However this will only help them in the league. Which isn’t good for you guys/girls
Liverpool will be able to play
Real Madrid
Shakhtar, Dinamo, or Atalanta
Atletico or Bayer
Dortmund
Lyon
The only one of those I don't want is Atletico. They're good enough at neutralizing the game and making it boring that such a tie could present an issue.
And did it help them?Not if we don't get knocked out of the Europa League ASAP. 3rd place is the worst of both worlds because you don't advance in the CL but still get hit with fixture congestion from a competition you want nothing to do with. As much as advancing in the CL would've hurt a Scudetto push (simply because Inter don't have sufficient depth to wage a two-front battle), you take it because it's the CL, anything can happen, and it's prestige and CL revenue. Europa League? Play the primavera and ditch it immediately.
It's kinda funny for me to think back on Milan disqualifying themselves from the UEL before the season as a way of trying to, I dunno, lessen their eventual UEFA punishment. Milan had no chance of winning that competition this season, it's not a competition they would want to play in, and it would've just clogged their schedule. There was nothing altruistic about it. They wanted out of it because it was more beneficial to them to not play in it. Plain as day.

Why though? Your conspiracy theories are tiresome.UEFA is trying to figure out how to get Man City to draw the Group C runner-up in the Round of 16.
Easy now. They’re going to Europa no? Also last I checked the Eredivisie was in Europe.Is ten hag a bald fraud now? Crashed out of the CL. Can’t win **** in Europe.
No conspiracy theory necessarily. But I would advise you to look at the draws that City have been getting under recent Pep history. Not even Ferguson had that kind of “luck”. Usually gets among the easiest of teams.Why though? Your conspiracy theories are tiresome.
Atalanta take the lead at Shakhtar
Atalanta in the draw would be really interesting. Would be crazy to have all “Big 5” League teams only.Atalanta take the lead at Shakhtar

yep looks that’s the case but Ajax and Shakhtar screwed up at home. The Russian sides have definitely regressed the last few years and the Turk champs are usually hit or miss in this competition. Maybe Salzburg if they got a softer group would have challenged
