Champions League Format Change

Happy to see it, current format has made for a boring campaign so far.

What do you think?
Shaking things up probably a good thing to allow for different match ups early on.

Not sure how much I care though, if we have a deep run this season I'll probably be giddy if not I won't give a sh*t.

Dangerous this, imo.

When computers/artificial intelligence see that humans let Tottenham football club in a tournament called 'The Champions League', that's when they will be like "Right lads lets get the Terminators up and running, these people need to be wiped from the planet"

Had the perfect set up since they got rid of the second group stage in 2003, disgrace they changed it to this.

So you can break into pot 1 without being league champion again? It's going to be a slog getting back up, we have to carry that big ol' zero from the season we didn't play Europe for 3 more years and no Europa league to farm easy points.

UEFA should change the coefficient weights tbh, feels like it punishes you if you're an exclusively UCL team.

Think the new format looks pretty interesting tbf but it may not be as easy to qualify for last 16 for us without a play off🫣

It depends on how the matches against the other teams are drawn but for fairness you should get 2 matches v teams from each group/pot.
1 at home & 1 away?

Suppose a question is will you be allowed to play teams from the same Country at the group stage or will they keep them apart?
 

Arsenal Quotes

I knew we were very different, that he (Ferguson) had a total hold over his club while at that time I was still more of a coach. I also recognised his huge qualities. He knew how to surround himself with the right people and didn't rest on his laurels when he was successful.
