I see they got beat 2-0 on Sunday by a team in the bottom half of the league,obviously never recovered from Thursday.
Agree with you,they could end up bottom.Would be surprised if Benfica don’t beat them, great opportunity to get 6 points clear on Thursday
Mate there is no ‘should be enough’I'm expecting 12 points from Poznan and Standard if im being honest.
That alone should be enough to qualify for the knock out stages.
Benfica will batter them both to be honest so I honestly think that if we win our 2 home games against Poznan and Standard that will be enough to get 2nd.I'm expecting 12 points from Poznan and Standard if im being honest.
That alone should be enough to qualify for the knock out stages.
I'll be honest, I wasn't particularly impressed by them.
At Ibrox I'm expecting an absolute canter.
Will be a travesty if we don't qualify from this group.

Let's just focus on Poznan.
If the group is shaping up 6,6,0,0 then it's very much ours to lose. We could literally draw every other game and be through.
I thought they had a few starting players out of the game with Covid?I'll be honest, I wasn't particularly impressed by them.

And then we can rest playersMate there is no ‘should be enough’
if we beat Poznan and Liege home and away then we are comfortably through to the knock out stages
Stan Dard.
Get it right.
I don’t think they were as bad as some are making out. Game could’ve finished 1-1 had the ball not slipped under the boys feet at the end.
If we could beat Poznan by a few goals a win in either game against Benfica should see us through.
They did, but I don't know if that would have made loads of difference.I thought they had a few starting players out of the game with Covid?
Let’s not get ahead of ourselves. Don’t forget,
1st group game - Rangers 5-0 Sturm Graz
Eventual Group winners - Sturm Graz
If he had managed to control it Tav was a few feet away and would have got a block in , it was no certain goal scoring chanceI don’t think they were as bad as some are making out. Game could’ve finished 1-1 had the ball not slipped under the boys feet at the end.
Too many on here jumping ahead of themselves.
These matches are very unpredictable.
I prefer to stay quietly confident.You're right nobody should get carried away, but our home record under Gerrard in Europe is 12 wins, 4 draws and 1 loss in 17 games, with that loss beinh Bayer Leverkusen.
We're in good form, and they're currently 10th with only 2 wins in 7 games.
Its very much one we should be optimistic about.
And that's completely understandable after the last 10 years.I prefer to stay quietly confident.

Just before Roofe's goal they had a massive chance to make it 1 - 1. Fine margins.I'll be honest, I wasn't particularly impressed by them.
At Ibrox I'm expecting an absolute canter.
Will be a travesty if we don't qualify from this group.
I watched their game last night and they were very good, big guy Darwin up front cost them £24m from Spanish second division club Almeria, scored a hatrick against Poznan last week and Benfica manager thinks he will go for more than the £126m they recieved for Joao Felix if he's sold in future, they really do pull in some amount of money in transfers and their scouting system is fantastic.I was quite impressed by Benfica mate, albeit it was just the highlights.
The big Young striker is a talent.
Their pitch was probably still a bogI see they got beat 2-0 on Sunday by a team in the bottom half of the league,obviously never recovered from Thursday.
And yet we beat Porto, eventual league winnersI watched their game last night and they were very good, big guy Darwin up front cost them £24m from Spanish second division club Almeria, scored a hatrick against Poznan last week and Benfica manager thinks he will go for more than the £126m they recieved for Joao Felix if he's sold in future, they really do pull in some amount of money in transfers and their scouting system is fantastic.
Looking through their squad it's full of exellent players from Morroco,Greece,Brazil,Portugal,Germany, quite a young team,superfit and chase everything,very comfortable on the ball, nice quick passing and they all trackback and close space down when they don't have the ball.
They are a champions league team without a doubt and I think they are a much better team than Leverkusen,we'll be lucky to take a point ifrom them being honest.
Yes we did but not without a bit of luck on our side, Porto had two cleared off the line by Davis and Goldson and the wonder save from McGregor before we scored.And yet we beat Porto, eventual league winners

Unless Standard beat Benfica twice.Mate there is no ‘should be enough’
if we beat Poznan and Liege home and away then we are comfortably through to the knock out stages
Did you really go to the effort to type that outUnless Standard beat Benfica twice.
In a group that finishes
12, 12, 12, 0
Someone has to go out!
That said. The possibility of that could be gone come Thursday.
Same as a group that finishes 18, 4, 4, 4
Someone has to go through in second!
The bottom worst point has never happened.
Lowest total EL is 7. And 6 for CL.
No club has ever failed to qualify from EL with 11 points.
Although Napoli and PSG have missed out on qualification in the CL with 12 points.
Too many on here jumping ahead of themselves.
