Yeah, thats why I said well whipe 10/11 this year and 11/1 the next
We'd need our last 5 years to be:

12/13, 13/14, 14/15, 15/16/, 16/17

And we'd have to actually do well in 15/16 and 16/17. Then we'd be in pot 1. So basically in 2017. That's shit. Way better off if we make it automatically.

To your last part, no it's not bad for Serie A. Those teams who are in EL usually don't really have a real chance for the Scudetto, and by the time R32 of the EL comes around in a season, they know it as well.

On the contrary, it would be rather an advantage for the league. Let's say some underdog, Lazio or someone, wins Serie A next season to.the absolute surprise of everyone. With the old rules, they'd be in pot 3/4 and knocked out in the group stages most probably. With the new rules, thex got a real chance.
Won't change anything lol

Just because league champions get 1st pot doesn't mean they will be more teams in 1st pot, some teams who were in pot 1 but never won the league like arsenal will be pushed down

However it does create problems, let's say madrid lose both cl and league title this year but obviously still qualify next season, I find it weird if say lazio won serie a and be placed as favorites in pot 1 against team like madrid who recently won the cl and has been consistent performer in cl for years compared to lazio who only get into cl once or twice in a decade

And it will not change the overall picture as well, lazio will have great chances to still getting teams like madrid and psg in their group, status quo remain unchanged so why bother with this rule?

The only thing that can significantly change the landscape is if they go back to the old era where only champions can enter the cl

Allegri is currently easely holding a 0-1 away lead in Dortmund, with a forced 3-5-2,without Pogby, and a pretty damn impressive deep defence.
