What is "monkey rush goalies"??

We used to have rush goalie but that was literally the keeper just going a bit rogue. Is monkey rush where they can use their hands as well? Punch the ball in?

No defined keeper, whoever was closest to the goal was the keeper.

Edit: Wiki says it was also called 'Last Man Back'.

So, I was thinking...if Chelsea end up in 5th but win the Champions League, then we have 5 teams in the CL next season right. But how does that work? Wouldnt that mean that theres an odd number of teams ?

Oh wait...hang on , no it wouldnt, because Chelsea would just be taking the spot that another team would have had from winning the CL anyway, stupid me

The team that wins the CL, more often than not, qualifies for the CL via their League position so your initial question has some merit. There would still only be 32 teams in the CL though. The way they square it is by fiddling around with the CL qualification rounds and sides that may have only played 1 (or 2 or 3) qualifiers, play an additional qualification game, with 1 fewer sides making their way into the CL proper through the qualifiers.
