Coefficients and CL pots


Recommended Posts

We're now 24th in the rankings which obviously guarantees us a 3rd pot place if we get to the CL.

 

However, as things stand around Europe, we're potentially 17th for the teams that qualify for the CL so if one of the few in the qualifiers slips up, we could possibly be in pot 2.

 

So barring bad luck we should have an easier group than this season where we pretty much had the hardest task on paper of any team in the competition.

 

PS Celtic are now 42nd, but ironically could rise to about 38th if we continue to progress. I would guess they will go into the 4th pot if they qualify.

 

We start next year at 22nd place while Celtic start at 52nd!

 

Chelsea are now the top ranking team in Europe... but Liverpool will start next season on top.

PS Last year Celtic were 24th and we were 45th so we've pretty much swapped places due to them losing their run to the final and us putting in a run to the semi.

 

Art Media hurts them too while our Zhizkov no longer counts.

But a team being top without winning it? Strange!

 

They've never even made the final.

 

I think it's pretty self explanatory. If you win the competition once in five years but didn't get past the last 16 for the other four, you shouldn't necessarily be ranked above a team who have say reached the semi's for each of those five years.

But have Chelsea gotten to the semi-final every year since the moaning one took over? Liverpool should be ranked higher after reaching 2 finals and winning it once.

That was only 3 years out of 5 - what did they do the other 2 years ?

 

Chelsea have been pretty consistent in the CL.
