Salvo Montalbano Posted May 3, 2016 Report Share Posted May 3, 2016 If Kante or Mahrez get an offer from Real Madrid, Barcelona, Bayern or PSG (or maybe Juventus or Atletico Madrid) then yes, I could see them moving. But why would they move to a Lyon or Dortmund? The French league is a joke just now (and the wages are a lot lower), Dortmund for all their huge fan base and quality aren't likely to better Bayern in the long term and are known for paying less than stellar wages. If they stay at Leicester and have a few good games in the Champions League then they're a lot more likely to get their move to one of the true giants.

Vinnie Posted May 3, 2016 Report Share Posted May 3, 2016 If they stay at Leicester and have a few good games in the Champions League then they're a lot more likely to get their move to one of the true giants. Leicester havent the depth of squad to challenge on two fronts. As much as this season has been phenomenal for them, I fear that they may be shown up as one season wonders.

Salvo Montalbano Posted May 3, 2016 Report Share Posted May 3, 2016 Remember that the English champions are top seeds (they changed the seeding a year or so back) so they'll avoid the Champions of Italy, Spain, Germany etc and the CL holders. You always get a few "weaker" teams like Celtic (ha ha), Maccabi Tel-Aviv or Malmo in there so there's a decent chance of second or third place even if they only finish mid-table domestically.

Vinnie Posted May 3, 2016 Report Share Posted May 3, 2016 Does that apply to Leicester? Nothing to do with their place in the co-eficient list? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salvo Montalbano Posted May 3, 2016 Report Share Posted May 3, 2016 It used to be based on the co-efficient but teams like ar$enal being seeded in pot one despite not winning their league and losing in the quarters while Man City and the like we're seeded at the bottom despite clearly being a strong club from a strong nation led to UEFA changing it so that the top 8 seeds are the holders and the winners of the top 7 leagues. Leicester will definitely be top seeds in the draw. It is more complicated if Liverpool win the Europa League - they will get straight into the group stage bit not if Man City win the European Cup. Don't think they're seeded either way though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
