More CL changes next season

[Guest]

Here's an idea, only let each country's champions in the champions league, which we could give a new name to, something like the 'european cup'.

 

Then we could start a new competition for the fa cup winners from each country and call it the european cup winners cup.

 

Everybody else who qualifies for europe can go in the europa league which we'll rename the 'uefa cup'.

 

Oh and all competitions will be two legged knockout ties up to and including the semi finals. They'll all be played on wednesday nights, as will the finals of each competition!

 

How does that sound?

Retro.

Lets just turn 'soccer' into Grid Iron and change the whole team every time there is a set piece. How much fun would it be to stage 4 and a half hour borefests every 2 weeks.

I’d get rid of extra time in the final, personally, and if it’s a draw after 90, award the trophy to the team with the highest combined Facebook likes and twitter mentions.

Ha ha don’t give them ideas!

I assumed all the teams that got knocked out of qualifying went straight into the Europa anyway, what's the current situation with that then?

 

Probably the only one I agree with, the rest can get fucked.

Teams that finished 4th in CL groups went out of Europe completely while only 3rd place group teams went into Europa.

[Jairzinho]

So, you could potentially lose 10 games in your European campaign and win the Europa League. 

 

Ace. 

 

Got to hand it to UEFA et al. Just when you think they might be losing their step, they prove time and time again what monstrously ridiculous stupid fucking cunts they are.

[dockers_strike]

Haven't they made it so all the top 4 go straight to the group stages next season?

 

Only from leagues with the top 4 co efficient so England Germany Italy and Spain at this time.

[dockers_strike]

4th sub in extra time? Fuck off.

 

Yeah they said similar about 1 sub before 1965.

[Boss]

The non cup tied rule is only there to appease Uefalona. They want to able to pouch our players mid season and then field them against us. Twats.

[Tj hooker]

I wonder what Everton fans think about these proposed changes

Ask them this time next year when Fonseca arrives in the summer and there 10 points clear at the top of the table and our heads are rolling down the County road

Oh right, it said qualifying so I thought it was everything pre-group stage, didn't realise it included it.

Don't have any major issues with the changes ( if I was still working I would be pissed off with the 6 o'clock and 8 o'clock thing to be fair ).

 

Assume the load of subs for the final is just to give everybody a medal in the squad, so thinking about players who have played an important role previously & ended up in suits at the final I agree with it.

 

Can't get my head around the getting into the Europa thing , is it now - Team that loses the final qualifier - and 3rd and 4th in the group , or am I missing anybody out ?

[Razoray]

The 4th sub in extra time will be the Penalty expert goalkeeper won't it?

[aRdja]

No player cup tied if transferred during the January window even if played for another team in the same competition.

Shit that.

[VladimirIlyich]

Shit that.

Especially shit for us.

[aRdja]

Especially shit for us.

Smaller non English clubs would suffer more IMO

[Gym Beglin]

Don’t mind those changes.

Even the Jan signings one, because it’ll work both ways. Sure we might lose a player but we can still go and poach a Dortmund player whereas now we have to look lower.

Chances are, our player poached by Barcelona > Dortmund’s player poached by us though mate.
