[Champions League] Juventus v Artmedia Bratislava (August 13th, 2008) (17 Viewers)

And he won't be eligable then?

1. If he plays even only a single minute in these qualifying matches and Juve qualify for CL then he won't be eligible to play for any other team that will play in CL or played CL qualifiers but he CAN play in UEFA Cup for the teams that didn't play (and lose) the CL qualifiers.

2. If he plays a single minute in the qualifiers and Juve won't qualify for CL and will play UEFA Cup instead then Tiago won't be eligible to play for any team that plays in CL or UEFA.

The rules actually say that the player that played for one team CAN NOT play for another team that played or still plays in the SAME competition as the team he played for.
Since Juve will play in CL (qualifiers) and if we're eliminated we'll play UEFA, it means that players who played for Juve can not play for the teams that will play in CL or UEFA CUP since Juve will play in both these competitions this year.

3. If Tiago won't play at all against Artmedia then he'll be eligible to play for any team that plays CL or UEFA.

If Tiago is just going to be sitting in the stands all year, do NOT field him and just sell him. There is absolutely no point in keeping him if he's that looked down upon by Ranieri.

Tiago for Zanetti

http://www.uefa.com/footballeurope/club=50139/competition=1/index.html

Why is Zanetti not there? I hope he isn't being sold!

He's injured...

True.
Unless we already have a buyer that won't play in Europe this year (Valencia, PSG etc).
But if we had a team ready to buy him then i guess we would have sold him already, so....

 

[Ahmed]

would he be cup-tied if he transfers to another CL club if he plays for Juve in the CL qualifiers?

 

[Alen]

Yes

 

[Ahmed]

hmm so if he is not in the squad tomorrow, it means he will definitely be leaving right?

 

[Snoop]

And he won't be eligable then?

only if he plays I think!

 

[Alen]

hmm so if he is not in the squad tomorrow, it means he will definitely be leaving right?

Only if we can find someone to buy him.

 

[Ahmed]

true

Ranieri: “This is why I don’t think any result in this first leg will leave us 'relaxed’ for the trip to Bratislava. What would happen if we failed to qualify? We’d play the UEFA Cup.”[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,Geneva,Swiss,SunSans-Regular]

Don't you ever think 'bout failing, Mr. Ranieri.

He's injured...

So are Marchionni and Knezevic but they are both on the list. Giovinco, Marchisio and De Ceglie are also gonna be on Olympic duty for a while but they're names are there. Nedved suspended but he is there too. Why has Zanetti been singled out?

 

[Snoop]

Someone tell that Ranieri idiot, if we fail to qualify for CL, we will lose money like hell.

This list is for the players eligible to play in the CL qualifiers.

It looks like Zanetti's injury is more serious and he's certainly going to miss both legs.
Knezevic's and Marchionni's injuries are probably less serious and there is a chance for both of them to make it for the second leg.

As for the youngsters at the olympics, there is also a chance that Italy will be eliminated earlier and they'll be home before the 2nd leg in Bratislava (that's the capital of Slovakia, FYI, my little geography expert. And Bratislava is also the city where Artmedia comes from )
