    Just one point my Dutch defenders don't seem to have clean sheet points whereas Van Bronckhorst does, maybe it hasn't finished updating yet although this wouldn't affect the winner.

    Just shows how much better club football is than international icon7.gif

    Champions League Final

    Bayern Munich v Internazionale

    Wot no Barcelona :eek:
    puts the West Ham 1966 thing to shame a bit...

    the champions league probably had something to do with Inter parking three buses in front of the goal. you still got to get through that... no excuse for any team.

    United?? anyone mention United and the Champions league?? :)

    I assumed the clean sheets would apply after 90 minutes as in the other games, would seem more logical.

    Glad to see Liverpool had a fair few in the final 2 teams (even if only a couple played) 5 players I make it. But that may change by the start of the season :).

    dont know of any other games that do that (i play telegraph, metro and sun dreamteam and they dont to that)

    always think its difficult if 0-0 at 90mins, to give points to a goalscorer in extra time, and also clean sheet points to a defender/goalkeeper, when they have let a goal in, albeit in extr-time.
