Re: English Football 2023/24

Arsenal have gone right back to kicking everybody's ass in the Premier League. Don't know where this Arsenal was in the Champions League. They've done their best to put as much pressure on City as possible by winning both games before City play again. But before they play on Thursday, Liverpool als...

Re: 2023/24 UEFA Women's Champions League

Semi-final first leg result Barcelona 0-1 Chelsea Second leg: Saturday 27 April Chelsea vs Barcelona (18:30 CET) Surprisingly poor by Barcelona. In the first half they had the normal dominance of possession but couldn't make much of it and Chelsea scored against the run of play, but in the second h...

Re: CL Revenue Distribution

I have finally got around to doing the analysis of revenues received for the 2022/23 season for the various European trophies. I have been absent for a few months this season for travel and returned a few weeks ago but have only recently found time to search for and do analysis on the financial dist...

Re: 2023/24 UEFA Women's Champions League

A Barca-Lyon final as most probable of the 4 possibilities? I think that both semi-finals are really difficult to call. I hate to say it as an Arsenal supporter but Chelsea look really strong at the moment and they would like to give their outgoing coach a good send off by winning as many trophies ...

Re: 2023/24 UEFA Women's Champions League

Couldn't they do Barca - Paris and Chelsea - Lyon? I hate same country clashes in EC, better avoid them if possible. I agree it would be better but like the men at this late stage there is no country protection. On the plus side though we are guaranteed not to have a same country clash in the final.

Re: 2023/24 UEFA Women's Champions League

I saw the Brann- Barcelona match last evening. Brann put up a really good effort to try to keep level with Barcelona, Brann were fortunate when you look at the chances to be level at HT. For the first 20 minutes or so of the second half the intensity from Barcelona dropped and Brann seemed more comf...

Re: 2023-24 Champions League: Round of 16

For the top 2 battle I would have liked a Porto win. Not a glory performance for a PL leader to need a PSO win against Porto. But mentality seems to be alright. Barca - Bayern again in the QF? :) Oh, you know what's going to happen. Now that Arsenal are available... The commentator was saying about...
