Does anyone know if the round of 16 is an open draw when it takes place? Or are teams from the same association not allowed to be drawn against each other, nor if they were in the same group earlier on? Example would Arsenal v Man Utd/PSV be allowed or not? Thanks
It’s already watered down as it is having 3/4th placed teams in the “Champions” League, but yeah I agree the play offs for
It would be a ridiculous idea.
For me:
FA cup semi final 99- Bergkamp scores that pen game over.
Leeds 99 - We win that we win the league. Amazing with fine margins that two minimal things could of resulted in a consecutive Arsenal double and no Man United treble. Shows how tough it was back then.
Barcelona 2006- Thought it...
Freeze the league as it is with no relegations happening and as a one off expand the league next season to 22 teams to include Leeds and West Brom. Exclude teams from the league cup who are playing in Europe and scrap FA cup replays for rounds 3 and 4
Where’s Wenger? In my opinion its Fergie, Wenger, Jose, Pep. Though in a couple of seasons that can/will change. Also if you’re putting Chelsea 2004/06 in then you need to add Arsenal 2002/04 in too
United 2nd leg 2009, Barcelona 2006, Paris or 2ng leg quarter final against Chelsea. Think we would of walked it if we got through that, with Monaco, Porto and Deportivo left. But if only one, it has to be the Barcelona final in 2006
