No doubt managers next season will complain there's too many matches

[joeg]

You're not fooling anyone with this super league nonsense.

[HaiSpy]

English football doesn’t need another side in the champions league, smaller countries need to be given some exposure. Used to be the champions league was meant for Champions only, teams that win domestic trophies

[JevBrown]

Football does not need to change. Uefa are casually playing fifa career mode with everyone

[simonb]

It's not fair for the top leagues to have so many teams.

The financial gap between these clubs and great clubs of old is too big as it is, due to those clubs of old not being able to qualify as it is.

[ventsislavyuzekchiev]

The only thing a don't like is that they want to give one more place for top 5 leagues, instead of giving it to a real Champions like in Poland, Czechia etc

[DanielChristie-dl]

If it wasn’t about money… why does the conference league only still play 6 games

[saidhammar]

Don't run from the topic please, it's not a problem of complexity. The league format will advantage giant teams, City will top that table every single season. Under dogs will never be able to make it. Big teams will play big teams everyday, killing the excitement of big games. And small teams will get back where they belong in the deep bottom of that table and will never reach the big stages again, will never make a surprise again. This format is the very opposite of improving excitement.

Who is here after all premier league teams were eliminated & German „farmer league“ might have 6 teams in champions league LMAO

[jeroenska.]

Why are they fixing something that isn't broken?

[TheRealCurtisWright]

The fact that UEFA said “why would we rig the draw at the league stage?” just admits their guilt to rigging the system at some point 😂

[Szobo]

How do you make the top teams happy by giving more games to play risking more injuries

[Froxdj]

this is stupid, lost me after the league stage, feel sorry for the players, so many games.

[DebarsheeTalukdar]

Don't try fixing things that aren't Broken

[Blueflag]

This is ridiculous. I dont think I will follow these competitions after this season is over.

[relaxingheart]

I do agree the current group stages are boring, so ditch the groups and just make it all knockout games like the FA Cup

[CelestialLight]

This new system is only favorable to the owners. The fans, players, managers are extremely against it!

[TheShizaarius]

Unpopular opinion: It's actually more exciting to have a league format and 8 different opponents for each club than a group stage with just 3 opponents + home and away ties, shocks and upsets can also still happen like before. Also, no Europa League if you finish third, once you're out, you're out. Looking forward to see how it turns out.

[MrHamibaloochi]

Too many matches, people will get tired of too much hype and football is gonna die out. Imagine if you eat pizza once or twice a week, it's ok but if you eat it everyday you'll puke it out

[Pittanza]

I don't like 2 things: the lack of home/away matches and the MANY more matches the teams will have to play.

I like the shared standings thoug, because it will prevent the elimination of teams with 12 points and the qualification with 6.
