Proposed Champions League format change

[Vincent Vega 3,569]

 

[Aventus 1,997]

A big league where not every team plays each other?

 

No

[Lee909 11,460]

Sounds shite 

[Bjornebye 24,963]

Fuck off. 

[derykw 179]

That sounds absolutely awful.

Presumably the top 16 in the leaague would qualify for the knock outs.

 

Fuck knows where they fit in 4 extra games in the calendar. A blatant money making exercise.

Ripe for match-fixing

[Aventus 1,997]

So they want more games where the big clubs play each other, without the risk of said big clubs missing out on the knockout stages. 

 

How do the smaller clubs feel about this? I imagine they'd get a couple more games against the big clubs in this league thing, but at the same time reducing their chances of qualifying for the knockouts to practically zero.

It's like they're actively looking to dismantle the sport.

[Doctor Troy 10,200]

I'm sure Klopp would be made up if it happened next season.

[Grinch 2,888]

Sounds great.  I can not give two fucks about it and do something more interessting, like watch ennerdale. 

[VladimirIlyich 7,394]

European Super League anybody?

[ZonkoVille77 5,445]

I'm all in for it. The game needs to move on. We can see the PL is backwards and corrupt as fuck so let us march into the future with our European brethren.

And UEFA isnt? Its a load of shite for me as I can just about stomach the current set up of meaningless games. I'm on the cusp of binning it all such is my general disinterest in the current climate.

UEFA is, aye. But the PL is in a different league altogether. There are meaningless games in all leagues and in all competitions in fairness. A few more in a more forward looking league wouldn't be too big of an issue for me.

Has all the hallmarks of as big a shitfest as VAR has turned out to be.

[Stickman 6,919]

If it means UEFA get richer then you can guarantee this will happen

But VAR is making the game better and more entertaining, right? 

[DalyanPete 242]

If it means more money spinning games we're on it. Which just makes a mockery of everything Klopp is complaining about.
