In order to make it, will the Chelsik Ladies play in a Russian way, I mean of course in bikini ? What are Roman's intentions ?

Rumours allegedly claim that Tjelsîk Vroen would be willing to play in body-paint if it guaranteed success, but that their President won't let them, him pointing out that it would not be cricket and reminding them that the greatest body-painter of them all actually wears her kit on the pitch and it does not seem to impede her. All that is, of course, pure hearsay, like the Liverpool ticket prices for certain categories of the infirm.

Please can someone explain why certain teams are seeded and others not? Indeed, what makes some runners-ups get to be seeded and others are not?
There is probably a very simple explanation but it does not seem to go by country population or wealth. Does anyone know?

The seeding is based on the 5 year club coefficient which is accounted by the club own coefficient plus 33% (I think) of the country's coefficient as well hence Birmingham at 14.520 despite having no history in the competition for example

Thank you Sylvain. Much obliged. Here is another question. What sort of "transfer-window" applies in the ladies' CL? Can you sign players from USA and Asia or Africa just like that because they are never "cup-tied"?
