I did have a look to see what the UECL trophy would look like.

They don't have one yet.

Liverpool to become the first team to complete the European treble.

What about defunct trophies won by defunct clubs who are 9 points ahead of a club in their prime?

Youve lost me Blobby. What u talking about?

Im not even sure wolves want any part of this shambles

Fack it, why not.

Season has gone to absolute shiiiiit but would be nice to retain some European football next season.

wonder how much this will cost clubs, does the prize money outweigh all the flights etc ?english clubs could handle it but what about a crap team from slovenia or wherever

Maybe it'll be a purer form of football. No VAR, no goal line tech,pitches like swamps, ostly middle aged bald fat men, Thursday night glamour tie vs Larne. I wonder if they still have all the barbed wire around the stadium.

Sounds awesome!

Seems no prize money has been announced just yet. In the Europa regualr you get about 200k for participating in the preliminary rounds, so your average slovenia entrant will likely make more money than all of the teams in the League Cup put together.

Probably be a good competition for some of the smaller teams.

Now you put it like that.....we're in!!

Absolute joke of a comp...the fackin Euromick is bad enough, despite us winning it twice.

Do the poor teams in the Euromick drop into this shambles after the group stages, like the CL

Doesn't bear thinking about....Spurs might like it though

Oh, you better believe it includes teams dumped in from various other comps.

1st Qualifying Round si just a stright up knock out of 72 teams from the 30th - 55th ranled leagues.

2nd Q we start to see CL preliminary losers plopped in. They're joined by the Moldovan cup winners and the like.

Then it moves onto trams eliminated in qulifying for the europa. Then when the group stage starts they dump another bunch losing Europa qualifiers.

And finally, just as you think you're in the clear....knockout rounds and the the 3rd placed europa lot come along for the ride. But they have an extra special preliminary knockout round to go throug before they actually get to the knock out round.

Seems lovely.

Probably get someone like channel 5 showing it

I think the idea is a good one if it is aimed at lesser nations teams having some kind of carrot to chase but when they start adding loser after loser from the other comps it really becomes a joke.

I mean you could quite easily see a big side or two dumped into it if they have a poor CL tournament then what is the incentive for the Armenian 4th placed side when they are going to be pummeled by an off form Valencia.

Absolutely a tournament for the smaller teams is good for them. But what kind of competition are we looking at if we have Liverpool, Villareal, Lazio, Dortmund, all in a competition with them. I'm not watching Liverpools u23s playing the Andoran cup winners. I may as well put my 6 year old in goal and start powering half volleys at him.

Those big league teams are only included for the $$$ surely.

Technically speaking the reason teams go in the Europa in the first place is because they failed to get a CL place.

5th in the league, 3rd in a CL group, same thing really.
