But, but, but ... the holders must automatically qualify so they can defend their title, no?

Right after City became the English team with the lowest tally in the group stages. Of all time.

Yes, its not fair. Chelsea should complain to uefa and ask if they can take the place of one of the worst group runner-up, and that team takes Chelsea's slot in the Europa League.
I'm sure it must have crossed Roman's mind..grease a few palms

And for all the "what a tough group they hand" handwringing, the fact of the matter is their squad was nearly as expensive to assemble as Real's for fudge sake. Yeah, it's only their second season in the competition, but they have a team with 4 players who have already won the CL (Maicon, Balotelli, Tevez and Yaya), a manager who has previously won the CL and a load more players with 15+ CL appearances before even signing for the club. We got to the quarters in our first year and we've never ever made a £20m signing, City are capable of pulling 2 or 3 £20m signings off the bench.

Kilmarnock manager Kenny Shiels may field Manuel Pascali against Celtic, despite the fact that the defender has not yet completed a suspension.
Pascali was given a two-match ban following a red card against St Johnstone on 24 November.
The Italian was dismissed early in that match and Killie have played once since facing Saints.
"According to my mathematics, Manuel Pascali has served two full games," said Shiels.
The Kilmarnock boss added: "He played for the first three minutes and got sent off against St Johnstone, which lasted 93 minutes.
"So, he has completed 90 minutes against St Johnstone and he missed last Saturday, so he will definitely be in the squad - if not starting.
"I think technically I'm right so I'll play him and then see where that takes us."
Shiels was served with two separate notices of complaint from the Scottish FA, with the second relating to his criticism of Stevie O'Reilly's decision to send off Pascali against St Johnstone.
Celtic visit Rugby Park on Saturday.

While its good to see a Scottish side do well in Europe again, its a shame that Celtic get this financial boost in one of the most competitive Scottish seasons since Fergie's days at Aberdeen.

As it stands at HT:
Udinese 0-1 Liverpool
Young Boys 1-1 Anzhi
A draw for Anzhi is enough to clinch first place
Hapoel Tel Aviv 0-0 Académica Coimbra
Viktoria Plzen 1-0 Atlético Madrid
Atletico need at least a draw to regain top spot
AEL Limassol 1-0 Marseille
Fenerbahçe 0-2 Borussia M'gladbach
Bordeaux 1-0 Saudi Sportswashing Machine
Marítimo 1-0 Club Brugge
Saudi Sportswashing Machine have to win to finish top
Stuttgart 0-1 Molde
FC København 0-0 Steaua Bucuresti
An FCK goal would put them in second place instead of Stuttgart
Dnipro 2-0 AIK
Napoli 1-2 PSV
As it stands at HT:
