Biancheri should have passed
Are we playing 3 at the back ? Something Amorim would want the youth to set up?

Cool. Didn’t know that. ThanksHe's already said he's not insisting that youth teams play with the same system, only the same principles
So who’s wrong, Man City or myself?
According to them they go through as the second placed team in their group.
Haven’t heard of a format change, but does this mean there’s a Round of 16 this year with the top 2 from each group going through as do the two best third placed teams?
According to Aston Villa they "finished second in Group E behind the Cottagers. Their tally of five points did not prove enough to secure their place in the knockout stages as a best-ranked second place team."
Premier League says ”The seven group winners and the best runner-up, decided by total points and then goal difference followed by head-to-head record, will advance to the quarter-finals.”, but the article seems outdated.
I’m confused.
Pretty sure City are wrong.
Let them believe it for a couple more days, they need it after what happened to their first team today. They can find out on MondayThat’s what I think too. It’s so weird though, they are hyping it on their website and everything.
From everything I’ve seen it’s first place from 7 groups and best runner up into quarters. Leeds and Crystal Palace both have 6 points and +2 GD so one of them gets final qualification place.
All that said surely City official page wouldn’t get that wrong.
"We’re second in Group G of the U18 Premier League Cup with six points from three games. We’ll have to await the outcome of Liverpool v Birmingham City to see if we progress to the knockout stages, as Liverpool would go above us with a win."
