After watching the Stoke game and the first leg against CSKA, I've mentally discounted winning the EL as a possibility. We gave away so many needless chances against CSKA that any decent finisher would have buried, we just got lucky that they didn't have any decent finishers. 4-1 was not a scoreline reflective of the balance of the game, it should have been about 8-4.
We won't get the chances to score 8 against Atletico or Leipzig, and they'll have the finishers to punish us.
Given we'll most likely have to play at least one of them later in the competition (assuming we don't balls it up on Thursday), I'm not getting my hopes up.
