BT Sport, sort it out!
Yes! Bring back ITV and Setanta SportsBT Sport are just so shite compared to what ITV were CL just isn’t the same.
Is there anybody who hasn't played for Chelsea?Chelsea legend scores!
Or come off in tears after a hard challengeNeymar is either going to score a worldy or get sent off this game
They loaned away half of Europe's youngsters a few years back. No wonder a few names are popping up now.Is there anybody who hasn't played for Chelsea?
It's the storms in the UK.BT Sport, sort it out!
The main hope is Kylian enteringNeymar is either going to score a worldy or get sent off this game
Di Maria missingAll that money and PSG midfield is plain average without Verratti.
Yep, it's more exciting. Lots more at stake.LOVE single leg ties, this is so much better than two legged Champions League matches. It’s also fairer - this is the format for the final, so should be for the rest of the knockouts.
They really do own all the players.Neymar has been Chelsea's biggest threat so far. He's thriving in his free role even though he had that terrible miss at the start. The rest of the team, however, are leaving the front 2 of Icardi and Neymar isolated. They are badly missing di Maria and Verratti's passing range, vision, and creativity.
I was wondering today whether UEFA are considering this format long-term. I have to say, I’d be in favour of it although it would eat into the summer schedule every year, which I doubt they’d favour.LOVE single leg ties, this is so much better than two legged Champions League matches.

Yes, but the commentary team is still the same.Is it safe to unmute yet?
Probably earn them less ad revenue though, so I doubt we'd see it again in the futureLOVE single leg ties, this is so much better than two legged Champions League matches. It’s also fairer - this is the format for the final, so should be for the rest of the knockouts.
To be fair, Palasic could never get a work permit to play in the UK so him for one!Is there anybody who hasn't played for Chelsea?
I agree. Talked about this with my son the other day and we both would love if the CL and EL playoffs was like this every year. Just with audience.LOVE single leg ties, this is so much better than two legged Champions League matches.

No way, that would be one less match per round and probably lose everyone a ton of money.I was wondering today whether UEFA are considering this format long-term. I have to say, I’d be in favour of it although it would eat into the summer schedule every year, which I doubt they’d favour.
It’s brilliant so far, both in the Champions League and the Europa.

I think the money factor is why they are probably against single leg ties.I was wondering today whether UEFA are considering this format long-term. I have to say, I’d be in favour of it although it would eat into the summer schedule every year, which I doubt they’d favour.

Also they want the big boys through, this format although I am really enjoying it, could lead to upsets. The smaller teams with smaller squads suffer over two games.I think the money factor is why they are probably against single leg ties.
The longer the teams are in the competition, more money they can generate. That's probably why they haven't done away with the group stage format.
I go see live football since the late 70ies,regularly since 1992. All of the most memorable matches I've witnessed were CL knockout stage return matches. There is *nothing in football* that comes close to the feeling when your team just came back from a bad fist leg to go through and you as a supporter in the stands have contributed. Go awayI agree.
