Squeaky Bum Time

[mojito]

Post all info relating to run ins for leagues we haven't got a thread for (so obviously, everything except the Prem and Championship).

I'll post tables whenever I can be arsed.

I notice Milan have a 4 point gap on Juve now. Interesting. Surely the only major obstacle now is Roma?

TABLES (some of them, anyway)

Bundesliga

Serie A

Primera Division

Portuguese Primeira Liga

Bayern closed the gap slightly on Dortmund over the weekend. Munchengladbach have slipped off the pace a little, Schalke are just about out the race. Still, potentially 4-way race for the Bundesliga title

Juve have been pretty average lately, too many draws against average sides they should be beating. 24 shots last night and no goals. They need a clinical finisher. Haven't really been following Juve as much as I normally do, not sure if Quag is still getting games or not but he was scoring for fun when he played before he got injured.

Vucinic was never gonna be a big scorer either. Like I mentioned before, haven't followed too much but they were doing quite well, Matri was scoring plenty as well. Really need a proven scorer, none of these 8 goals in 30+ games a season types they usually buy. That dude in the French league might be a shot.

Napoli are a great side so I doubt they'd let Cavani go, who Man City or someone will try get. Higuain would be immense for Juve, the type of clinical/tap in specialist. Probably couldn't afford him/Real wouldn't let him go.

Story of their season. All the ball and hardly any result.

Galatasaray dominating the Turkish league by 9 points however there's a new playoff system this year.

Top 4 teams have there points halved and play each other 2 times and the winner is decided that way. So if we finish 9 points ahead we will start with a 4 or 5 point advantage.

Stupid system.

 

[RickSanchez]

How the **** does that make any sense at all?

 

[Mr_Bojangles]

Three points seperate 1st and 5th in the second div in Germany with the top 2 through and third playing off against the third last in the Bundesliga. St Pauli is in fourth 3 points off Psygg Furth. Hopefully Hertha can climb away from the relegation zone and keep an alleged Socceroo in the top division.

 

[Bristol]

Schalke... just slowly drifting away.......

Hopefully our players don't do that too. I'd do anything to keep Farfan, Howedes and Draxler at the club

Roberto Mancini actually said "Squeaky Bum" in his post match interview today.

I like Mancini. Even if he does manage your lot.

That would've sounded epic in his Italian accent.

Oh and I will do tables this weekend.

Been under the pump with uni and work a fair bit of late.

 

[mojito]

if Braga wins against Coimbra tonight then they're first in the Liga Sagres.

1.FC Porto 57 (24 games)
2.Benfica 56 (24)
3.Braga 55 (23)

6 games to go.

But Braga are playing still against Benfica (25), FC Porto (26) and Sporting (30 and last matchday).

Sporting vs Benfica is also in 2 weeks.

Exciting times in the portuguese league no doubt.

 

[Contador]

Barcelona close to within 4 points of Madrid. 7 games including a clasico to come.

The run in:

Barcelona

Getafe (Home)
Levante (Away)
Real Madrid (Home)
Ray Vallecano (Away)
Malaga (Home)
Espanyol (Home)
Real Betis (Away)

Madrid

Atletico Madrid (Away)
Sportin Gijon (Home)
Barcelona (Away)
Sevilla (Home)
Athletic Bilbao (Away)
Granada (Away)
Mallorca (Home)

Very tough run for Madrid.

Messi has now scored 60 for the season with his double against Zaragoza.

Un-****ing-believable

 

[kane249]

Elsewhere Milan lose and Juve have gone to the top of Sierre A

 

[Mr_Bojangles]

Fiorentina gave Milan a hell of a pasting at home. That El Classico match coming up is going to be huge, I'm not Barca fanboy but god I hope they catch them for so many reasons apart from Jose and Ronaldo.

 

[HolyRioli]

Massive, MASSIVE game tonight between Dortmund and Bayern, could well decide the title.

 

[glenferry23]

barca have now won 10 in a row i believe, only 1 point behind madrid currently

 

[hawkman]

Dortmund win 1-0. Robben missed a pen and shot over from 2 metres. Title looks over as Dortmund are 6 up with 4 to play

 

[jod23]

Madrid have a game in hand though. They were 10 points clear at one stage. Barca are coming hard! El Classico to come too. Surely Real Madrid cant lose the title from being 10 clear.

 

[kane249]

Real win the derby overnight to go 4 clear again

 

[Mr_Bojangles]

Dortmund win 1-0. Robben missed a pen and shot over from 2 metres. Title looks over as Dortmund are 6 up with 4 to play

That's a shame....

Great comeback from Dortmund in the league this season. Hopefully they'll have a squad to fight on two fronts next season they obviously couldn't cope with the UCL and League earlier this season. Meanwhile, Hertha Berlin are in all sorts of problems down the bottom.

i believe the el classico is at the nou camp as well. will be a massive game. yes madrid still in the drivers seat but you never know....barca in red hot form though at the business end of the season

Real win the derby overnight to go 4 clear again

some more ridiculous goals from ronaldo. his free kick was quality but the second one from the edge of the box was something else altogether. genius

 

[Thistle]

Dortmund claim back-to-back Bundesliga titles with a 2-0 win at home
