Because Arsenal ARE better than some of the champions of other countries and the CL should feature only the BEST teams.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
And the teams that have won their league are considered the BEST in their country... hence they are top seeds

That's bullsheit, seedings for the champions league should be based purely on performance in the champions league.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
That keeps the same teams at the top though. If you had say Benfica consistently making the quarters that would improve them as a club financially and commercially and their domestic league would benefit as a result.

Also it wouldn't be a given that about 12 of the same teams make it through to the last 16 every year.

I like the idea, and as my previous post, it will spice up the competition in domestic leagues as well for 2nd/3rd place.

Probably three years, Mr C.

UEFA rules are usually reviewed over a three year period and any changes need to be done at the end of that three year period.

CSKA Moscow win their league and are the BEST in their country. Real Madrid fail to win their league and are not the BEST in their country. CSKA Moscow are in pot 1 while Real Madrid are in pot 2 or pot 3. CSKA Moscow are better than Real Madrid.

Darren so seedings would last for 3 years? Why not update them every season..

God you are dumb, sounds like you would just prefer the CL didn't have any club from outside the 4/5 leagues as the only good teams are the top 5 in the PL, the top 2 in Spain, the top 2 in Germany and PSG.

There's a reason why these are the best clubs, because they have more money and power than the rest meaning the rest get left behind a little more every season.

By allowing champions of other leagues to have top seeding it's giving lesser teams more of a chance to compete and forcing good clubs like Arsenal who achieve nothing to work harder.

What about if I said Spurs should be in the Champions League purely because we are better than Maribor?

Would that be fair? After all you want the competition to be filled with the best teams?

Seedings are a load of $hite. Greece are still living off that flukey Euro win back in 2004 but haven't done anything of note since. That was 10 facking years ago!

Maribor are in the CL? If so then yes, what your saying is fair. Why should the CL feature teams like Maribor when it can feature better teams like Spurs.

So what you are proposing is a completely different competition rather than just moaning about rankings because they don't suit Arsenal?

I'm saying that the current system is better than the new seeding system that they are bringing in next season as the better teams should be in the higher pots than the worse teams.
