***Official*** English Football Season 2019-20

I just don't rate these ex-player, legend bringing back the winning culture, type coaching hires. Aside from Arteta, none of them are exceptionally tactically astute

Pep. Zidane's record with Real Madrid is genuinely excellent too.

Micky Mellon @ Tranmere the clear and obvious example

Oh yeah, but I was focusing on the British clubs for some reason.

PSG into UCL finals for the first time since ever, scored 3 goals despite neymar and mbappe's not so clinical finishing. Looks like Bayerns title to lose

 

[Lillian Thomson]

Seville win the Thursday Cup yet again. I think the season finally ends tomorrow with the CL Final - Bayern v PSG. In some ways they did well to finish the season at all. The 20/21 season could be chaotic throughout.

Feel like Bayern's wingers have been their 2 worst players.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Comans had a couple of good moments but it feels like gnabry has barely had a touch.

 

[Furball]

Kimmich has been dreadful

 

[Furball]

lol of course Kimmich sets up the opening goal now I've said that

 

[OverratedSanity]

Kimmich has been dreadful

Haha I was about to say his reluctance to cross has been baffling

 

[Furball]

Bit of an anticlimactic final in the end. PSG were woeful.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Neymar had a 15 minute stretch in the second half where he gave the ball away literally every time he touched it. Dreadful.

Woeful is stretching it. They were poor the last 20 minutes or so but had plenty of chances at 0-0.

 

[Lillian Thomson]

The players seemed to have got used to no fans and don't seem that bothered. I like this one match knockout format.

 

[GIMH]

I definitely think the end of season tournament format could become a thing. Would potentially allow them to expand the whole competition

I liked it and it frees up space in the calendar - main issues would be whether clubs are happy at losing 2 home games worth of revenue, it's potentially not a great format for fans in the grounds and the latter stages of the Champions League are normally epic so it's not like there's a problem in need of solving.

 

[GIMH]

Two home games of revenue is surely not a big deal for clubs in the CL quarters though. Agree on the latter point mind

Bring back the Cup Winner's Cup in this format.
