New format is absolute horse sbite
Home and away v 3 opponents top 2 go through, what was wrong with that? Some groips of death where your on edge for 3 months about qualifying for the knockouts.
Most groups were sorted after 5 games, sometimes 4.
Gets rid of the 3 week break between second round games, dropouts into other competitions, and the annual City winning the first leg of their first knockout round game 5-0. For all the whinges of more games, if you finish in the top 8, you don't have another game in it until Easter, rather than mid-February as it was before.
That said, I still can't make head nor tail of how the opponents are chosen. Most bizarre football draw I've ever seen in my life.
