European super league

[mitkoa7x]

I read about some of the grand clubs (including Barca) wanting to leave UEFA cuz they are fed up with their crap. Is there any truth to this?

No

Probably not but an elite Euro League will happen one day

It'll be the day I stop watching and following football.

But to someone like Dalitis it is probably his wet dream fantasy.

Wasn't there a lot about this Euro League a year or so back, and most Probably Perez is a strong advocate for this. Though playing 2 leagues would be very taxing on the players, especially if the Euro League also consists of 20 teams.

it will happen one day i am sure, football is not be monetized to the fullest extent, so i am sure the big boys will one day start something like a super league.

It wouldn't be all that bad though, we would get to see a lot of awesome match ups.

I think the CL's magic comes from the possibility of a great matchup. It would be stupid if only the top clubs competed, we would get huge games every week and that will ruin the feel.

If there was to be a 20 team Euro super league, who do you guys think would be in it?

Off the top of my head: Inter, Barca, Man Utd, Milan, Arsenal, Bayern, Juventus, Real Madrid, Chelsea, Liverpool would be shoe ins

Maybes: Man City, Roma, Lyon, Marseille, Porto, Benfica, Valencia, Atletico, PSG, Sevilla, Tottenham, Napoli, Dinamo Kiev, CSKA, Zenit, Shakhtar, Dortmund, Schakle

absolutely god damn right.

indeed indeed, evidence is in the run of four classico's, the football would also get really negative if all these top teams are facing each other on a regular basis. but it will happen at some point in the future. it makes too much sense of all the decision making stakeholders.

True and would be sad. Not something i want to see but something i think will, sadly, happen

Some might laugh but i think you could add Celtic and Rangers to that. Ok, the SPL is shit but these are 2 huge clubs and in this set-up, they would be big draws

A good idea would be to create an original champions league, only for the champions.. 15-20 teams maybe.. the idea was around some years ago..
For example for the next year, you would have Barca, Utd, Milan, Porto, Dortmund, Lille, Ajax etc
you would loose same possible great matches between non-champions from the top leagues, but you would really rejuvenate the competition.
The local championships would be treated differently also, as there would be no CL places, only the championship..

And much important : Europa league would be completely different.. It will be massively upgraded with all the rest top teams there..


Idk.. I like the CL as it is now, but sometimes i feel it is not fair for the 4th teams in the local tables to compete at the same basis with the champions from some others.. Some times i want to see a true Champions league
