Champions League: It’s a Knockout…

[Editor]

Well I never knew that re the retake. Fair enough. Still a very soft initial pen

If players from both teams encroach the kick is retaken no matter the original outcome, had it only been a Chelsea player the kick is retaken if scored, if missed it’s an IDFK. If BVB players only encroach a goal is awarded if scored, retaken if not.

And how many times is that rule “applied”? Forgotten the last time I didn’t see that happen….

I’ve said it before but Chelsea are ones to watch in the CL this season. Nothing else to play for and there are many similarities with their other CL wins. Poor league campaigns with a new manager having come in mid-season to galvanise a struggling team loaded with quality. It would be such a Chelsea thing to do to finish poorly in the league, win the CL then sack Potter in October 😁

Have to say, I was quite underwhelmed by Bellingham over the 2 legs. £150mil? I’m not so sure

Good job all round from everyone last night with the whole Stadium behind the team too.

Scott Parker sacked by Club Brugge following hammering at Benfica last night.

Sacked twice in one season!

Benfica looked tasty though, rafa silva amd Gomez look like very good players. They may be seen as the team everyone will want in quarters but they are super dangerous.

Ed, Bellingham was fixed as part of deep double pivot last night, even when they went to 3 at back we didn’t see much of him.

Dortmund decided to keep it tight yesterday rather than go for a goal, it cost them but I understand it given our problems up front they probably thought they could just keep clean sheet and move on.

Don’t forget Ramos at Benfica Lucky. He looks absolute quality. Great finisher and good in the build up too. Benfica are one of those great talent production lines who make a ton of money from our PL clubs. We should all be employing their talent spotters rather than filling their bank accounts every season.

The problem you’ve got is Benfica will pretty much guarantee players they find that they’ll get lots of first team football. Would they get that at a big PL club? We see how big PL clubs, generally speaking, just don’t like risking young unproven players and there’s a risk they’d be stuck on the bench or sent on loan somewhere.

No, absolutely, Mikus. That’s the tricky part. Though, I’d imagine that partly explains the latest trend of setting up these multi-club ownership models where the risk can be spread and players can be brought in to clubs at a lower level before moving up through the clubs.

Teams are in and no real surprises for my boys… I think we’ll have enough if they all turn up, the question is will they turn up?

Ed ramos is the guy I meant when I said Gomez I think he scored last night, got names mixed up.

Bayern Munich would eat up Real Madrid if they were to meet.

Bayern, Napoli and City look like they’re levels above everyone else in the CL this season Nil.
