    for those interested:

    Europa league draw.
    Chelsea v Dynamo Kiev

    Eintracht Frankfurt v Inter Milan

    Dinamo Zagreb v Benfica

    Napoli v Salzburg

    Valencia v Krasnodar

    Sevilla v Slavia Prague

    Arsenal v Rennes

    Zenit v Villarreal


    for anyone wanting to know why this completion is in trouble: they've fitted 2 legs in already in space of one leg for last 16 of CL... and these last 16 games will be played in 7th and 14th march.

    We do not play bayern away until 13th march.

    Seriously constricted schedule!



    Anyway... theres one or two interesting games but not many in this comp. Sevilla play prague which was a semi final when we lost to seville in this comp's final.

    Inter, napoli, seville, Valencia, arsenal, Chelsea.. benfica and zenit... wouldn't be a terrible standard of teams for the Last 8 when this competition could become worth bothering about.

    Its because they have an extra knockout round. So instead of going to 16 after groups go to 32, I wonder if that’ll change when they bring in this 3rd European tournament though

    Wont have an awful lot of choice. Both contract expire in 2020 so could lose for nothing next jan on a pre contract or a very small fee if someone wants to buy them there and then

    Yes, I think its madness. it kills the comp.

    The big teams can put up with thrusday nights prechristmas by playing kids and they don't "mind" par se.

    But this 4 weeks of 2 games a week while the CL clubs swan about having the rest... it really hurts

    For me they need to hcange it cos nobody is really interested, even the minnows like bate last night.. are they REALLY interested?

    I think it is an English attitude thing
    Europe tend to really respect the Europa
    I do too but the money in the prem rears it’s head again
    Even if they re work it I don’t think it will interest the prem clubs :(

    Anyone know who the 4 other Prem teams are that are currently under investigation' and expected to get the same ban if found guilty. They will be teams who have bought a lot of youngsters in recent years so could be us, Urd and City

    look.. it's bound to be city as they are being looked at for youth players.

    it's not known who the 4 are but its highly likely to be top 6 clubs so id say arsenal city utd and us.. maybe spurs i dunno.

    would have thought City will be 1. My guess is you need to look at teams who bought lots of youngsters from abroad but quite possible it us both Mancs & Arsenal.

    They need cbs..I'm sure they will buy while appeal is on.

    I'm sure they will now be accelerating sarri going and new man's plans.

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/47339005

    Hope they get a big ban just so the rest of the league can compete fairly with them.

    More has come out on uefa investigations.

    City paid Watford 150k for sancho at 14 but they actually paid more to his agent, 200k.

    Thus they are under investigation for illegal payments.

    I fully expect to see city drop 500mil this summer to prep for the transfer ban.

    Chelsea said to have 200mil to spend before sales.

    If lfc want a few players this summer they better buy early and not a direct target of these guys.
    If we are not also under investigation.

    Big weekend at the bottom of the league.

    Newkie play Huddersfield at home. That's a must win game.

    West ham have already beaten Fulham
    Watford thrashed Cardiff

    Arsenal play Southampton at home
    Burnley play spurs

    A win for newkie could see them as high as 13th in table and 5 points clear of last relegation spot
