I can't wait to see the best teams in europe facing each other in the champions league like Bologna vs Shakhtar, Sparta Prague vs RB Salzburg, Celtic vs Slovan Bratislava and Stade Brestois vs Sturm
Those games actually sound decent and competitive compared to Real Madrid / Bayern vs. young boys FC.
>>144513402the whole league format is retardedjust go back to the european cup formatthen every game is meaningful, small clubs can hope to get a good draw or avchieve an upsetbut then big clubs might go out in the first round and they cant have that
for me it's Slovan Bratislava vs Manchester City
champions league should be champions only
>>144513527you calling NK Dinamo champions?
Only four (4) teams were added this year compered to last seasons..
>>144513402ALL THE STARS ARE HERE
>>144513435and of course, numbers of foreigeners need to be limited again

Why do casuals hate watching lesser known teams?They're usually the best gamesI bet you don't even watch conference qualifiers and enjoy random Balkan posters arguing a 40 year old feud
>>144513402To be frank any of those teams would walk the Libertadores.
>>144513920When it makes rich teams fill their ranks with foreigners and make them walk the competitions yes it's bad.We would get more competitive games if the number of foreigners allowed per team was reduced.
>>144514127wrong. The big clubs were consistently steamrolling clubs from smaller countries once the TV money made the clubs in 4-5 biggest countries 10-20 times richer than everyone else, and once the foreigner limit was taken out, the old format became completely pointless.
>>144514469when we talk about the old format, we mean in 1990
>>144513920yes that's correct
>>144513402i was done with soccer after the euro. this cements my decision as a good one
>>144514491and? once tv money started getting bigger and the foreigner rule was abolished the old format had to be changed because the competition would be completely unsustainable and boring.
>>144513402What do you want? Two tables and best 4 of each table get to play in a ultimate round robin style tournament?
>>144515413No, 8 groups of 3 and top 2 in each group advances. That would be significantly better.
>>144513402Stade Brestois destroy your pampa liga everyday
>>144515052>>144513876see
>>144515873>>144515873>group with 1 team eliminatedwaste of time
>>144516353Yes. Less matches are played and more teams go through.
>>144516439you must hate knockout games
>>144513876why? they're clubs not nations>>144513506they gona die fr
>>144513920Yep
>>144513913Teams now play with three defenders?
>>144513920Yes.
>>144522588yeah, this is actually how they played
Only one game matters (the final) all the rest is filler.They should make a software that finds out who the best two teams are and be done with it
