We have 3 matches during 6 days... wtf the table is hell.
Maybe most of players will tired, then it lead to down the ranking of league.
So many ppl argue that we must give up Europa league. Others claim that we must pay attention league and Europa also. I'd like to know u guys opinion.!

-Huge win previous match i believe that we can play on Champions league next season.

What do i think about it? Underrated competition that will forever live in the shadow of the Champions League.

How do i think about it? With a quiet air of mystery, often stroking my beard.

Close to the end of the nutty bit now without too much resulting damage, bring on the knockout stages!

Until we get some decent scheduling we wont take it seriously. Fixture list is a joke.

I loved the UEFA Cup. Never felt like a red-headed stepchild of a comp. Always exciting. They've fucking fucked it. Made it feel like a $2 whore.

It's also fucking stupidly long. They need to cut out the stupid wanker CL clubs dropping down into it. That one move will help it out in both respects immensely. They won't though.

****s.

Pretty much been said by everyone already.

I don't have an issue with the Champions League teams dropping into it after the qualifying knock-out stage, but after the group stages it's just laughable.

If they want to keep it the same length, then either make everyone go into a qualifying round before narrowing it down to 32 teams in the group stage, or make it a bigger group stage (64 teams) and then go straight to a knockout from there, with no fucking Champions League dropouts.

Giving a Champions League place to the winners has helped, but the benefit of that is watered down by them letting the teams drop down.

The Champions League berth at the end is a positive in a way but also makes it a glorified inter toto cup

Win this comp so you can play in the real comp with the big boys

It's silverware and yes I want to win it.
I has many benefits. Players returning from injury and fringe players get game time.
Keeps the squad ticking g along nicely.

Exactly. It used be a standalone comp. Almost the equal of the EC. It mattered to all those teams in any given year they were in it. For good reason. Every single year you'd have a Juve or an Iter or Milan and one of Barca or RM in it etc. Yanited or Pool or assnal from England. Big teams with rather large trophy cabinets and it mattered to each and every one of them. It was legit. Since they've ring-fenced all those teams into the pseudo Euro Superleague that all those clubs were clamouring for a couple of decades back, it's been left with the dregs. To then make it even worse they made it a holding cell for the CL failures of any given year and then the final coup de grace - by winning it you get to take the dunces hat off next season. It might still have been able to find it's niche if they'd just left it alone.

Give me a giant vat of acid and the home addresses of UEFA and FIFA officials and I'll have it sorted in a couple of weeks.

You also get the financial reward equivalent to an Argos gift voucher for winning the entire sodding thing.

It's a joke because it's treated like one by its own administrators.

I want Spurs to take it seriously.

Unfortunately the people running it don't.

do you mean the people running Spurs or them running uefa? cos I think the uefa guys need to improve the format and prize money to make it a serious competition
