Champions League 18/19

With the rule change, how many players will try to aim for opponents arms when the are crossing or having no chance of scoring ?

I highly doubt that players will be thinking oh yeah i'll try whip this cross in but instead of aiming for a team mate, i'll aim for this defenders arm to try and win a penalty LOL

How about defends learn to block crosses and shots without putting their arms miles out instead?

In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if, in order to get him to sign his latest contract, he assured Foden that he would get plenty of meaningful game time very soon, without really meaning it.

So that if Foden comes back in another season or two and asks why he hasn't made a proper breakthrough yet, whatever Pep might say inm reply, the unspoken answer will be: "You're under contract for another four years, you play when I say, you stay when I say or you go when I say, so suck it up, kid."

Well yesterday was certainly a meaningful game

I think the bit in small print at the bottom will come in handy for you in a few years time, as you seem to have a problem admitting when you were wrong

Yep, their 34th meaningful (PL) game of the season. And his 2nd start. In extenuating circumstances.

Do you think Foden will be an "ever-present next season"?

We'll see.

VAR: Cutting the crap out of football.

Its hard to look beyond Ajax for this one. Either way, its great to see these two clubs in the semi-finals. They've both achieved their current status with relatively modest expenditure and both play great football.

Just seen Ajax have scored 111 goals in the league this season -

In only 32 games.

Still PSV have the same pts as them at the top.

I never thought I would be looking forward to watching a game and wanting Ajax to win! The first semi-finalist from outside the 'big five' leagues since PSV did it in 2005. That's a pretty damning indictment of the way football has gone, but they do give some fleeting hope for the game.

Should have been 2-0 there. Criminal he didn’t square that

Spurs been outplayed so far, great team to watch Ajax

BT didn’t show a freeze frame of the goal with the lines across to prove if it was on or off.

They’ve shown the freeze frame now 20 minutes later
