Beren Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 Juve, Atleti, Barca and Bayern through IMO. Would prefer to see Barca-Bayern over two legs so hopefully they draw each other in the semis. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Village Idiot Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 Only really Atletico and Real is really that interesting, the rest are highly predictable. Eh? It looks like one of the most predictable. They haven't lost to Real in 8 games within 90 minutes? The first leg in the Copa del Rey last year? Slighty off topic but a good run in the Europa league would've been great for Liverpool long-term. The young squad will know what it feels like to run deep in Europe - managing ties over 2 legs. So? It still could go either way. You are absolutely nuts if you think Monaco v Juve and Bayern v Porto could go either way too ( sorry it was Nobody who said that, but still point stands) PSG don't really have much have a hope tbh, Barca are just too good for them especially with Ibra and Veratti suspended. Well, they beat us at the Parc des Princes - although we're in much better form than then. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The College Dropout Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 PSG at home first leg, I can see them winning or at the very least not drawing. I certainly don't see Barcelona winning in Paris. Realistically, I can see Atleti vs. Real finished as a tie during the first leg with a tight Atleti victory. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 Gah, what I thought would be the final in the QF, annoying. Wolfsburg Napoli or Zenit Sevilla? Zenit - Sevilla. Two great ties though, saying that I wouldn't want to predict any of the QFs with any confidence. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This kind of thing I do rather despise as its pretending to do something that will help the england team get back on track and win the world cup (it won't) while actively not addressing the actual problems (lets say just how much the fa charge for those uefa coaching badges, fine for a professional club to foot the bill, grassroots not so much) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

When the threshold drops to 50, it'll exclude Japan, South Korea, Australia, South Africa, Paraguay, Morocco and I assume Norway and Turkey amongst many others (most of Africa). Hard to see the Premier League clubs voting for it. I'd imagine most of them are desperate to see the work permit laws relaxed so they can start hoovering up South American talent with a view to spitting 99% of them out at 21.

jdckelly Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 also this is worth noting A player will have to have been registered with his club from the age of 15 - down from 18 - to qualify as 'home-grown'. The minimum number of home-grown players in a club's first-team squad of 25 will increase from eight to 12, phased over four years from 2016. At least two home-grown players must also be 'club-trained' players - defined as any player, irrespective of nationality, that has been registered for three years at their club from the age of 15. and the agents of mediocre english players rejoiced as their clients just got a significant boost in transfer value Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wacko Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 Our work permit rules are quite strict in anycase, ridiculous rule. It's definitely ridiculous. Players'll just go to Belgium or another country first, where they hand out citizenship after a few years, and then they'll come to the Prem. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
