    It might just save the Europa League.

    I'm sick to the gills of pelanty competitions, but at the same time I can't see what other options are available if you don't bring back replays (which they only got rid of for International tournaments after Euro '68). There's 'Next Goal Wins' perhaps, but would the TV companies wear that?
    Maybe removing a player every 2 minutes, with the possibility of it coming down to keeper v keeper? That might have some legs.

    Or - as somebody on the Guardian blogs suggested - have both teams advance in the event of a draw, with a combination of players from said teams competing in the next round. France/Netherlands v Germany/Spain? Book it

    Nothing wrong with penalty shoot outs at all

    Unless they are of Ukraine v Swiss standards then they should fuck off tbh

    One of the most enjoyable times ive had as a Gooner was our shootout win v Sampdoria in 1995 and of course 05 cup final

    Trying to think of one we lost, only 2000 UEFA Cup final comes to mind

    Not that we saw it live but the 1980 Cup Winners' Cup Final.

    Gervinho would've faked an injury a long time before it got to that stage.

    I guess the idea would be to keep the speedy/stamina players on. Lump it to Theo is the only option.

    I think it if it got down to 3 or 3 and below, you'd be seeing 'keepers doing a lot of 'Stallone saves'. I.e Two footed
