2021–22 UEFA Champions League
The 2021–22 UEFA Champions League will be the 67th season of Europe's premier club football tournament organised by UEFA. Chelsea are the current champions.
A total of 80 teams from 54 of the 55 UEFA member associations participate in the 2021–22 UEFA Champions League (the exception being Liechtenstein, which does not organise a domestic league). The association ranking based on the UEFA association coefficients is used to determine the number of participating teams for each association:
For the 2021–22 UEFA Champions League, the associations are allocated places according to their 2020 UEFA association coefficients, which takes into account their performance in European competitions from 2015–16 to 2019–20.
Apart from the allocation based on the association coefficients, associations may have additional teams participating in the Champions League, as noted below:
The following is the access list for this season. As the Champions League title holders, Chelsea, which were guaranteed a berth in the Champions League group stage, already qualified via their domestic league (as fourth place in the 2020-21 Premier League), the following changes to the access list were made:

Plan Challe
Plan Challe or Challe Plan was a French military operation during the Algerian War. General Maurice Challe had the idea for the Challe Plan. It lasted from the 6 February 1959 - 6 April 1961.
In the Plan Challe, the French army attacked the FLN fighters. The French sent reserve units and conscript units to defend places where they would not have to be moblie. For example protecting roads. This way, regular French army units could perform search and destroy missions in the mountains where guerrilla fighters were hiding. They used helicopters to move special mobile units composed of elite troops such as Foreign Legionnaires, paratroopers, marines, special commandos units, and air mobile regulars. These elite forces never exceeded more than 20,000 soldiers.
The Plan Challe was a series of sweeps into places where the French army knew the guerrilla fighters were. By taking regular troops away from defense, Challe broke down large formations into small units, many of which had both French soldiers and Algerian soldiers in them. These groups of soldiers could move quickly so that the guerrillas had to fight them in rough country."
"The highly sophisticated operational and tactical scenario was virtually the same. Utilizing primarily air-gathered intelligence and without warning, the elite units and the air force move at tremendous speed onto enemy territory. The strike usually takes place at dawn. First, the target area is bombed out of existence and showered with cluster bombs from fighter jets and bombers. Within few minutes, the paratroopers land in the heart of the insurgent territory with close air support provided by armed helicopters. The elite force engages immediately the insurgents while fighters, bombers, armed helicopters patrolled the battle space and strafe or bomb any insurgents leaving the area. Additional troops are brought in by helicopters to close the immediate net around the insurgents. A larger contingent of regular troops and Commandos de chasse (hunter class troops) are convoyed to several spots around the battle space to ambush and pursue the survivors. The aircraft are relieved when the area is under control by the elite troops and when the regular contingent is in place. The command and control post (Joint Operations Command) is always shared by Air Force and Army commanders. The operation is dismantled at sundown and the elite troops are withdrawn leaving the local (secteur) regular troop to finish the job and keep the area clean. It was devastating to the FLN, in terms of lives and moral."
The Plan Challe was a clear military victory for France. The FLN had only around 5,000 soldiers left because many of them had fled from Algeria to nearby countries, for example Morocco and Tunisia where the FLN leadership was based. The fighters that did not flee Algeria were forced into hiding because the French military presence was overwhelming.
The Plan Challe helped France to win the Algerian War militarily and led to Charles de Gaulle on 29 June 1961 announcing on live television that fighting in Algeria was virtually over. The military side of the conflict in Algeria had almost ended, but the political side of the conflict would still go on.
