Just noticed that Attwell is VAR to Oliver on Tuesday and Assistant VAR to Irrati the next day. Where actually will he be?
In Nyon. All selected VAR and AVAR for UCL and UEL will be there for 3-4 days.
Thanks edy. It's near Geneva I believe and where they were based for the Euros.
Have you any views on some of the referee appointments for the CL over the 2 days? Some surprises in my eyes but maybe not so much to others.
I actually like this strategy in appointments from Rosetti.
Referees like Siebert and Gözübüyük need to prove themselves before a promotion to the Elite. The Elite category has already faced 3 departures so Rosetti needs to bring fresh blood. If you add the referees who are under-performing (Collum, Sidiropoulos, Kulbakou, Aytekin) there aren't many options for the big matches.
Also the appointments of Sanchez Martinez, Frankowski and Schärer are an encouraging sign towards that direction.
