what annoys me about how the european competitons are structured is that it is entirely based on maximising revenue and this has the effect of devaluing the prestige and to a degree the eleven of interest.
all these comps are too big. there are so many mismatches in them and it is largely very predictable up to the knock out stage.
Instead of refining these comps. UEFA is making them bigger with even more games adding 6 more games to win the UCL.
They do not care about the quality and competitiveness of it, just the quantum of games and how much TV revenue it will gain.
For.me the UCL is being watered down and devalued. The Europa League will have even less prestige as a consequence esp. if it continues to receive the UCL dropouts, and the Europa conference no one will care about at all.
These could all be great comps in their own right like.they used to be but actually I believe the result will be less interest from fans
Arrogance of fans and players...
