3rd Place

3rd Place

This years uefa champions league is well underway and after 3 games, Galatasaray SK is sitting in last place in their group, which has the following teams, from first to last:
Dortmund, 9 points
Arsenal, 6 points,
Anderlecht, 1 point, & 
Gala, 1 point.  


The first two teams make it to the last 16 of the champions league.  The third place team goes to the uefa cup competition, and will be in the last 32 teams in this competition.  And the last place team will be eliminated from European soccer competition for this season.  

I would recommend to Gala to really try to finish this years competition in third place, therefore they could continue  their journey in uefa cup competition, instead of the champions league.  Let us be honest, Gala is not very strong this year and they are not firing in all cylinders.  

The uefa cup competition will be better suited for Gala this year as the teams in this competition are more likely competitors for Gala. 

The last 3 games remaining for Gala are: 
Borussia Dirtmund, at Germany,
Anderlecht, in Belgium, &
Arsenal, in Turkey. 

I cannot see the team get even 1 point from the Germany game.  However, they should be able to secure a minimum of 1 point from Belgium.  The last game will surely need to be a win.  Therefore, Gala will hopefully finish with 5 points. 

Their direct competitor will be Anderletch.  The Belgium sides last 3 games are: 
Arsenal, at home,
Gala, at home, &
Dortmund, in Germany. 

I cannot see Anderlecht winning or tiring with Arsenal and the game against Borusia Dortmunf will be a definite win for  Dortmund.  

This is my analysis of this group within the champions league, therefore, from first to last, here below is the standing after 6 games: 
Borussia Dortmund,
Arsenal, 
Galatasaray, &
Anderletch.  

What do you think?

Sincerely.
