    Newer rumours make it sound like he'll move to Hannover instead, gotta wait and see. The "ß" is a form of "s" in Germany, so you'd be good saying Groeskroyts.

    The German pronounciations make us seem incredibly Dutch.
    Growskroits is another good one.

    Interesting. Never knew there were variations of S in other languages.

    Let's hope Grousskroids end up in LFC :)

    LOL @ slow footed Per Mertesacker trying to keep up with the trio of Messi, Neymar, and Suarez.

    This is going to get embarrassing for Arsenal especially with Francis Coq out.

    Seems we'll have some great match-ups..

    Barca vs Arsenal.. Maybe the fourth will be with them?

    Chelsea vs PSG.. Chelsea should go all in here, EPL is a no go

    Bayern vs Juve.. Older Juve and lost key players

    Chelsea in the unique position of winning the UCL and getting relegated from top flight football in the same season.

    I wondering if Chelsea is eligible to play in the CL next year if they do manage to win the CL title this year while being relegated to Championship. :eek::cool::grin:

    They'll be eligible, and it'd be hilarious to see. Very unlikely that it'll happen, but if you gave me a choice of two options

    1. Chelsea win the UCL and avoid being relegated
    2. Chelsea win the UCL and get relegated

    I think I'd choose the 2nd option just for the laughs.

    Theyd probably have a better chance at winning the Europa League and then playing in the UCL next season. They messed things up by winning that final group game. No way they will win it this season(taking into consideration the season they won the CL).
