Projected CL league phase draw pots are clear after the 1st legs Despite the coefficient system being not bad in determining relative strength of teams, it still messes up several pots. For instance, Arsenal should def. be in pot1 among the 9 strongest teams, and BvB has no business there...

Return to orange, one classic and traditional Barca color for away kits, is potitive! But the 'total 90' design is awful: streamlined and simplistic, with really bad accent color and matchup with main color The home kit is super meh, with blue dominating as with the worst versions of home kits...

official version is all orange the navy shorts are given as alternate

Still struggling to comprehend the reason LL prohibited this kit against LEvante. There is no single clash in there in all shirt, shorts, socks...

Yup. His problem is definitely NOT the big games... But last season the countless draws against midtable sides dropped them out of the title race early

City have much more ground to cover to get the title this season. It will be between Pool and Arsenal IMO, and is still unclear who will get the advantage

UTD better than Arsenal in the 1st half, despite the score line Shocking...

What ones does as a player has nothing to do with what he can do as a manager. It's precisely this privilege and entitled mindset that has to change, and it's already changing... BTW, you lump all 'greats' without even realizing who is who. Klopp Simeone Mourinho all of them worked up through...

- A manager doing well at lower level does NOT guarantee he will do the same at tier 1, but it is a good indicator. In fact, other than the privileged managers who jumped to the seat of top clubs only because of their legend status as players (a strategy that is becoming obsolete day by day) all...
