He came on. Suggest that the club don't believe the rumoured charges or don't care.

Man City have won the last four EFL Cup finals but while Chelsea and Liverpool will now fancy their chances it will at least give smaller clubs like Arsenal hope of some success

[desperado]

Five of the six London Premier League clubs are in the League Cup quarter finals

[Hedgehog]

Again, Spurs 3rd kit shirts.... why?

German Cup:

Borussia Mönchengladbach 5:0 Bayern Munich

I suspect there is a thread somewhere else, but I can't find it... what's the thinking about this pending 5 subs that we know Palace are against.

I appreciate the reason Palace are against it (as are most of the clubs of a similar size), but what I dislike the most is the disruption it brings to the flow of the game. Hate watching European games when they are constantly stopping and starting to make changes.

Are they going continue with the only 3 substitute stoppage per team, i.e. 5 subs can only be done during 3 separate hold-ups in play per team... which could in theory still be 6 separate stoppages.

Hate it.

Both sides had more or less the same number of shots on target.
Freakish result? Yes and no. I think Bayern conceded 4 against Hoffenheim at the start of the season.
Bayern's back four had three French internationals playing!
