Every football fan is aware that there is a "group of death and an easy group" in every football event. On a serious note, Aston Villa will qualify from that group of yours, and I'm not even kidding. The hashtag thing is normal, but you guys trolling around with an elephant on a tree every time you go top of the league is so naive man... I've never seen Liverpool or City make so much noise.
Sure there is a talked about group of death, not so an easy group. And it is a straw man's argument to try to use that to cheapen a club's run in the competition. The club does not decide the draws, we experience it.
You have seen Liverpool and City talk a lot, there just seems to be an agenda with trying to dictate how we celebrate our success, we go top and have fun with an Elephant, that is not even trolling. Ødegaard takes a picture of a long time fan and mascot, pundits get a meltdown.
Pep was speaking for all managers during his post match interview. Arsenal also played on Wednesday, yesterday and again on Tuesday. Villa, WestHam and Liverpool played on Thursday, Villa went the 120 minutes and penalties, but they all play today and Liverpool go again on Wednesday.
I understand that they could not push City's match to Sunday cause Chelsea play on Tuesday, but the fixture line up for the clubs are crazy and it will get crazier with the new UCL format and New Club World cup format (for those participating). Removing replays from F.A Cup helps but the top clubs rarely feature in play-offs.
