I hope so but I'm not even going to contemplate the possibility until the semi's at the absolute earliest.

One thing I will say though if we actually do it after the season we've just had I'd go as far as saying we should be considered 2nd only to Real Madrid when it comes to UCL mentality, our results and performances in that competition ever since 20/21 have been nothing short of excellent.

If you look at our European triumphs in the last decade, they are the only side to have faired better.

For the reasons you mentioned, adding another one to that record would undoubtedly be something.

and we should be 3 and 0 over the last 15 years (Moscow, arffff)

and in 2021, we destroyed Real Madrid in the semis

smoked them like a blunt with our pace and their lack of it

our 2012 win at Bayern is the biggest CL final upset in the past 30 years (Pool beating AC Milan is up there too, especially with that lead Milan blew)

biggest upset IMHO since Marseille upset one of those insane AC Milan teams in 1992/93, 1 nil (and Marseille were hardly shit, they were actually quite loaded too, Völler, Deschamps, Desailly, etc etc)

Premier League announces kit rebrand with new font for player names and larger numbers

Premier League announces kit rebrand with new font for player names and larger numbers

The Premier League has announced kit changes for next season, with larger numbers and a new font for player names.

Top-flight clubs will wear shirts with rebranded elements from the 2023-24 term that the Premier League says will provide “increased visibility and more impact both on and off the pitch”.

 

The number heights have increased from 230mm to 250mm, with the Premier League logo at the bottom also bigger. Avery says the bigger negative space in the numbers also increases visibility from distances.

Next season’s shirts will also include a resigned sleeve badge featuring a standalone Premier League lion. The tweaked design will be replicated in gold for the ‘champions’ badge worn by the 2022-23 winners.

The Premier League has worked with its official name, number and sleeve badge supplier, Avery Dennison, on only the fourth redesign in its history.

Will Brass, chief commercial officer at the Premier League, said: “We wanted to work closely with Avery Dennison, using their expertise and experience to create new names and numbers, which were not only clearer for those watching matches in stadiums or at home, but which also incorporated the Premier League brand more readily.

“The names and numbers have become part of the fabric of the Premier League.”

The Premier League say the names, numbers and sleeve badges will be produced at Avery Dennison’s factory in Western Norway, “powered by renewable energy from a nearby glacier” and using a digital process “to ensure minimal waste”.

Feel like Crystal Palace needed a change, similar to Dyche taking over at Everton.   

Yeah getting stagnant after being up and coming last season

Next match v Arsenal they may come alive free to express or crumble

Spurs losing points. Great. Win games in hand just 6 points behind. 

Hard to care. We're not catching them up

plus who knows what the gap we be time we play that game in hand. Atm we are 11 points behind so time we play could be less could be more but silly to say be 6 behind...
