Draw tomorrow.

That'll be fun. I wonder, since its all being done by computers, if they'll just release the results or do a step-by-step, draw-by-draw reveal to drag that shit out for views and ad revenue.

I like it too. You get to play 8 different teams instead of 3 in the group stage, and it reduces the risk of group stage elimination due to one or two bad matches. Galatasaray-Juventus will not happen again.
Yeah it’s starting to grow on me as well. It’s an interesting format and the more European games the better.

Just wish UEFA didn’t benefit from it. Greedy twats.

Ok but after the group stage the first 8 teams go to the traditional play off while 16 teams below have to go to mini play off? Doesn't that mean the middle teams have the opportunity to gain more money?

I sure hope there is a monetary incentive for the top 8 plus the rest they get when the rest are knocking each other out.
