New format won't be able to help
...
I honestly feel it will make things even worse. We'll have 10 meaningless games instead of 6, and there will be important games in the middle of the table but nobody will really care about them.
The reasoning for them is simple though - more games means more money. The big clubs will find it way easier to rotate though, so we'll once again wait for the groups to finish. This time it will just last longer and bore us even more.
I feel the new CL format will just speed up the Superleague format by a few years. Well played, UEFA.
I think that despite not liking much the new format,it is a needed change to be made as Champions League has been like this for years now and although this format runs pretty well,usually after so many years a change is needed to see what it generates.I think it will generate even more views and more interest in general by overall sport lovers.The more games we have the better only if they manage to bring more teams to the group stages,a thing which also boost the chances of not so strong teams to be here playing.
