number of games

[SuitsBlue]

when chelsea play in the FA cup final, that will be their 64th game this season.

our final game at chelsea sees us play our 42nd game this season.

factor in international games, and some players could* be playing nearly 70 games a season, thats like 10 games a month, a game every 4 days for christ sake.

In fairness Suits they do have an enormous squad, and they get quite well paid for it!

 

[SuitsBlue]

well, theres been a lot of crying in recent years about players playing to many games and being absolutley gassed by christmas.

there is only really chelsea that can manage to play 64 games, man ure have been down to the bare bones of a squad, arsenal cant cope either - their midfield is wafer thin, and deR Schiesse dont have the quality in their squad to replace so called key players.

 

[Gazdalf]

punished for success, the art of champions is coping.

 

[SuitsBlue]

its not always been that way.

CL league groups
uefa cup league groups

carling cup is a waste of space

 

[Dylan]

Yeah, but it could be a ticket into europe for someone smaller. They should make it a rule to exempt the current CL playing teams from it to give others a shot at it.

 

[SuitsBlue]

ask an ipswich fan one of their best nights in recent memory...

...beating milan at home in the uefa.

milan were only there because they dropped from the CL early.

good sides make good games, i'd want us to meet bayern, sevilla, inter, benfica.

 

[Dylan]

Actually I meant exclude the previous seasons top 4 from the Carling Cup.

 

[SuitsBlue]

ahhh, would they still allow it a uefa place though

 

[Dylan]

Well, in my world, yes

in my world, halsey gets put through a meat grinder and then fed to kopites.

cheating corrupt scum.

poll is retired, halsey is enemy number 1 now.
