I think the way CL is right now is ok....because its more interesting imo, and also more games so more games to watch also....i know its because of money.....but i like the way it is now...more games, more games in group stage and etc...it makes the competition harder imo....
If we would have only teams like:
Barca
Juve
Chelsea
Bayern
Lyon
Psv
Then there would be less games and the competition wouldnt last so long....
For example
Juve-Lyon= juve
Barca-Bayern=barca
Chelsea-psv=chelsea
And now?
Also, think if juve might loose seria a titel in the last game by 1 point to milan?? I know you might say it wont happen...yes it wont happen now...but those things can happen later...why juve went so far in CL was also because milan got a little bit weaker(after their early 90-s), and juve got stronger.....so they won the leageu...
I like the way the competition is now...many teams and you cant predict who can win it...what i dont like is that there is too much luck needed...those draws...too many draws imo...they should come up with a new system, only one draw! in the autumn and then it all goes its own way....
What i dont like is, 3th in the group go to uefa cup....thats something what i dont like....already the thing that they qualifyd the year before to the CL competition and those others uefa cup shows that they are stronger....and very often a team who comes from the CL wins it(like valencia did, if i am right).....this year i think Shalke might win it.....because the teams in CL are much stronger....It just ruins the chanse for the smaller/weaker teams like (palermo, samp, monaco)....
