Anyone any ideas on how to change the way the game is played though ??
Players are becoming bigger. stronger and quicker. It's a prerequisite for clubs to pick the bigger lads at junior level, because they are the most "effective" How do we make the game more about skill and less about physical attributes ?? Make the pitches smaller ??? |

If you scrap the away goals rule it surely means the team playing away first is more likely to play entirely for a 0-0 draw. Without the worry of away goals at home, most team will take a one off game at Home to see them through.
More teams are showing positive intent in the away game to get that crucial goal. The league stage in the CL usually showcases the best football, less worry of one mistake knocking you out, encourages more open and risk taking football. Problem is that teams like Liverpool and Milan, not having to concentrate on league commitments have mugged tired and and depleted sides to get to the final. Up to the attacking sides to bite back next year, hopefully Barca are back to their best, Madrid can keep us their improvement, Utd can improve further. |
