Still new to this, and all the lower divisions. If Bradford City is 49 places below Chelsea (7th in the Third Tier) this upset has to be something like a second or third place SEC College grid iron team beating the Seahawks? Or a AA baseball team beating the Giants in a game that matters and eliminates them. Am I drawing the right conclusion there? Looks like it was upset day all over for the FA cup with City and Southampton also eliminated. And United and Liverpool playing to draws? View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

West Ham, Villa and Arsenal play lower division sides today.
As manager, do you adjust (improve) your lineup to try to ensure a win since some of the high quality teams you'd have expected to play later on have been eliminated, increasing your chances of going all the way? It will be interesting to see how today goes. ETA: They all won. Next round draw tomorrow. |

If Sheffield United plays well enough against Spurs today to go through to the final, there will be another chance for Mourinho to lose to a lower division side .

The Blues had me worried there at the end.
5 pts, with 15 games to play. Still a whole lot of football between now and a trophy. Just have to survive while Costa is out.

What a game! Top notch from Kane, I don't know what else Roy Hodgson needs to see from him.

Ahead of the Blues' 1-1 Champions League draw with Paris St-Germain at Parc des Princes on Tuesday night, images emerged of their team coach lodged in a stadium gangway. Blues manager Mourinho has been accused of "parking the bus" in matches - but usually on the pitch, not off it. <story continues at link above> |

It really only benefits them if it's a 0-0 draw at home, in which case the Blues would win on away goals. I don't think a scoreless draw is likely to happen. So, they still need a win at home. A 1-1 draw and it goes to extra time then PK's. Any draw more than 1-1. e.g. 2-2, and PSG advances on away goals. A straight up win is what they need.

...and Chelsea drew PSG 1-1 in Paris. If I read it right (still new to this) that gives them a slight advantage since they have an away goal, right? A straight up win is what they need. it benefits chelsea to some extent in that the away team now HAS to set up and play to score. previous to the away goals rule, the basic mentality of european cup soccer was "tie away, win at home". under this approach, the home team would play (hopefully) for a win and the away team would, in modern speak, park the bus across the goal. now, with away goal advantage implemented, two things happen: 1) the away team is encouraged to play forward, even if it does result in a score draw (1-1, 2-2, etc), and 2) the 2nd leg is more interesting because even if the 1st leg ended in a score draw the away team again HAS to bring players forward. ar-jedi |
