Is anyone else tired of the constant bitching and moaning from players about the "tough calendar", especially from the lordy English league + Real Madrid. How about earning some of those hugely overpriced salaries you get.

 

How about getting rid of the useless League Cup, that still for some reason exist on the British isles. How about reducing the leagues to 34 matches. There shouldn't be a top European league with more than 18 teams. I prefer having the ECC in their newer format and a Club World Cup every 4 years (for which not every team is even qualifying), than additional 4 league games, that bring nothing new (plus additional playoffs somewhere). Domestic leagues should start in September and end early May, to fit a longer break, if the players health is concerned.

Good start for Italian teams in Women CL: Roma 1-0 Wolfsburg and Valerenga 0-1 Juve

 

This is the last season with the old form (next year will have  aleague phase at 18 teams), and it began with a surprise: Manchester City defeated Barca 2-0, with Barca fail to score in groups for 1st time

 

Pernille Harder, on the night she made her 50th European appearance, scored a hat-trick in  Bayern Munich comeback against Arsenal 5-2

Epic own goal for Sparta in the Dutch 1st division (or 2nd, whatever you call it, the one underneath the top flight :p). At 1:00 in the video.

    • I think the reason is that it's generally preferable to have a fast shooter in the 1st leg, and especially in the prone shooting, where Hofer is quite slow.   Now, I'm not saying I agree with the choice, because I don't. I think it's going to neutralize Giacomel's skiing skills in the 1st lap at least.   I guess the idea is to try and set a very fast pace in the 1st leg, which is usually quite tactical, but I'm afraid that's going to force Giacomel to risk too much because he will feel he has to make some time somehow.   Regardless, Italy must be on the podium tomorrow. I think that would be crucial for the following races as well. I think France is the clear favorite, but the other teams are not stronger than Italy on paper.
