Roeder backs calls to end replays
Newcastle manager Glenn Roeder has backed calls for FA Cup ties to be
decided by a single match.
Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger wants replays scrapped and Roeder told BBC Five
Live Sport he feels the same.
He said: "There are so many games to be played now that I would prefer for
there to be only one match, decided by extra time and penalties if needed."
However, Manchester United assistant boss Carlos Queiroz favours adding
extra time to the first tie.
(話說砲德也算是頻密賽事受害者之一,雖然小正太幫球隊拿到不少分數)
Queiroz said: "Why do we have to finish after 90 minutes in the first game
when the second one goes to extra time?
"It is part of the rules to have replays but I think there should be extra
time in the first match.
"You cannot change the rules once the competition has started but maybe it
is something that could be looked at."
Birmingham took advantage of the replay rule to knock out Newcastle in the
FA Cup third round, winning 5-1 away after a draw at home.
(...又說到傷心點了)
On Saturday, Reading drew 1-1 with United to force a fifth-round replay -
while Blackburn and Arsenal will do the same after their goalless stalemate.
And with both United and Arsenal in the Champions League, which resumes
this week, it is unsurprising that the clubs do not welcome additional
fixtures.
Reading boss Steve Coppell understands, to a point, but also offered an
alternative solution to scrapping replays.
He said: "Big teams don't want an extra game in the calendar because as
the season draws to an end their priority has to be Europe and winning the
Premiership.
(這個....Big teams也在增取減少"無謂的"國家隊賽事)
"I can see their point of view because an extra fixture makes demands of
the squad.
"But the big four teams have such massive squads they loan a lot of
players out. Maybe in future they shouldn't loan so many players out."
Meanwhile, Roeder believes there is a chance that Michael Owen could play
during the current campaign.
A serious knee injury has kept the 27-year-old England striker out all
season but he is now back in training and making good progress.
(...又提起歐文的進展了)
Roeder said: "Michael has been out all week on the grass, running hard.
"I think there is a distinct possibility that we can get a few games out
of him this season.
"We have to be positive, Michael believes he can play this season and we
believe he can."
