FK Partizan

edit

Apperently FK Partizan has been banned by UEFA.[1] [2] Could be good to know if they should qualify. Qed237 (talk) 13:10, 19 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

Okay, time to talk about this. Ban is still in effect? Qed237 (talk) 20:45, 17 May 2017 (UTC)Reply
It seems like ban is lifted according to ESPN. Qed237 (talk) 20:53, 17 May 2017 (UTC)Reply
UEFA is slow to update. Here is official document from CAS. Qed237 (talk) 21:02, 17 May 2017 (UTC)Reply

Coefficient for AS Monaco

edit

Please update coefficient for AS Monaco because Olympique Lyon has been eliminated by Dutch Ajax. --31.0.122.97 (talk) 18:52, 14 May 2017 (UTC)Reply

RB Leipzig & Salzbug

edit

Both teams cannot play concurrently the same UEFA competition, because they both have the same owner. 213.27.184.202 (talk) 13:31, 16 May 2017 (UTC)Reply

Decision will be taken by UEFA in June. They have changed the owner structures in recent years so they might both play. Qed237 (talk) 13:34, 16 May 2017 (UTC)Reply

Well, seems like this problem is solved. Matchbeak (talk) 21:03, 2 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

Seeding

edit

Just like before I have prepared seeding which can be shown in User:Qed237/sandbox6. It will be updated in the article after this season has been finished (coefficients confirmed) and all teams have qualified (i.e. all leagues has ended).

If you see any errors, please let me know. Qed237 (talk) 11:22, 1 June 2017 (UTC)Reply

Grammar

edit

Qed237, your recent correction does not make sense. The note clearly talks about a single entity, a French club, yet your justification for reverting my correction was "because they are". In the same note in following parentheses it is stated "which is". So how is that "they are"?? Since when Monaco is plural? Aleksandr Grigoryev (talk) 20:45, 24 July 2017 (UTC)Reply

I'm assuming it was reverted for consistency within the article, as elsewhere "are" is used when referring to a single club, e.g. "Real Madrid are the two-time defending champions." Boothy m (talk) 23:42, 24 July 2017 (UTC)Reply
A team is considered to contain players and they are therefore plural. I have looked into this in the past and it has been discussed at WT:FOOTY. The best source I can find at the moment (dont have time to look now) is this with information like
  • Most publications that use American English apply a logical approach to refer to groups with such names by using singular verbs and pronouns, but most written in British English, apparently valuing consistency over logic, use plural forms. Whether the verb form for generic references is singular or plural — “The band is back on the road again” or “The band are back on the road again” — is, likewise, usually a matter of preference based on the variety of English employed.
This article uses British English and then we use are as most common. Qed237 (talk) 11:02, 26 July 2017 (UTC)Reply

2018-19 Edition

edit

When is the wiki page for the Champions League 2018-19 edition going to be added. Other years, the page was made around this time of year. Is there a specific reason it hasn't been added yet? — Preceding unsigned comment added by FistinPenguin (talkcontribs) 20:21, 29 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

It will be created when UEFA announces details about the new three-year cycle. Qed237 (talk) 10:02, 14 September 2017 (UTC)Reply

Assists statistics

edit

Is that table really necessary? Seems a bit pointless to me. Govvy (talk) 22:35, 21 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

Funny. I thought it was about time that UEFA caught up with the rest of the planed in recording assists. Good on them. Better that we quickly caught the statistic and added it quickly as well. Giving credit for assists is long overdue. Walter Görlitz (talk) 07:18, 22 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

Is this just supposed to be a note, or are you making a point about something? – PeeJay 09:47, 4 July 2022 (UTC)Reply

Winner is published wrong

It is Real Madrid who won but it is written as Liverpool what a big mistake 170.133.124.74 (talk) 22:30, 13 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
