For the fans maybe. As for the club, league comes first.

for me too. that's a completely realistic expectation.

Imagine us vs Bayern, Liverpool or Barcelona.

Imagine us vs Bayern, Liverpool or Barcelona.

We still have to make it against Lyon which is not a given as sad as that sounds

 

[Orgut]

The team with least injuries will win it.

Do not rush Demiral, Chiellini, Higuain, take good care of Costa, Cuadrado. Ronaldo will take care of himself.

The team with the name Bayen Munich will win it..

The team with the name Bayen Munich will win it..

Most likely.

Imagine us vs Bayern, Liverpool or Barcelona.

Liverpool have been eliminated, so we don't have to worry about them.

We need to concern ourselves with Lyon; then, if we somehow get past them, we can worry about Bayern, Barca, and even Atalanta, PSG, and Atletico.

It's gonna be scorching hot there tho, no?

It’s generally better that time of year that a lot of Europe. But in August two years ago, it set a record at 44°C. I literally had the skin of my eyelids peel off from the blasting heat from Morocco and the Sahara here.

So if this pseudo Champions League became CR7's only CL trophy with Juve would you be satisfied or disappointed ?

Duh.

Even more orgasmic, it would be in my effing backyard!

So bring on the asterisks. Heysel never discounted our last trophy.

It would be a gift and a curse

the gift would be a trophy that has avoided us for 20+ years

the curse would be the faux immortality Sarri would attain

Haha! True.

Sarri, not Sarri.

Turner Sports will no longer air CL games

 

[.zero]

Turner must not be seeing the expected return on paying for a slice of those media rights.

Emerging (unorthodox) players like DAZN, AMZ, FB, Twitter all have demonstrated intent broadcasting live sports. I worked on it for the NFL Thurs night games on Twitter, MLB games on FB Live, and YouTube. These players also have way more disposable capital and can move quicker than traditional media outlets.

It would be interesting to see FB v AMZ v Netflix battle over CL rights in the U.S. market. They can certainly outbid Fox (Disney) if they wanted.

 

[Quetzalcoatl]

When are they gonna host a UCL final in the US? That would be cool (and make them lots of money)

 

[Ronn]

It is mentioned in the article that CBS/Univision hold the right from 2021. I didn't know that. It's likely that CBS picks up the coverage for 2020-21 too.

My favorites for the CL:
1. Bayern
2. Man City
3. Atalanta
I would put PSG there too, but no competitive football for more than 5 months will make it impossible for them to win it. Everyone else is kinda meh.
If we avoid any of these teams before the final, we have a chance. (assuming we make it past Lyon of course)

Agreed on Bayern.

City making it through is still uncertain, winner of that tie will be dangerous. If Real Madrid makes it through they'll be major contenders again behind bayern. If City does maybe it'll be a reference for them and change their luck in CL. We'll see if that makes up for their lack of experience

No chance for Atalanta. They don't have the defence nor the experience and the latter counts for a lot to win the CL. They'll do an Ajax 2019 at best

If Man City win a CL before we get our 3rd
