re: EPL- What's wrong with it?

It would be fun since there's more discussion than ever about the relative strength of leagues but so few CL matches that actually matter between those clubs.

At the very least, I've always thought that CL would be a lot more entertaining if it had more teams from the bigger leagues.

Even if it's just a few more clubs added in the qualifying rounds. To me, it just seems odd that a Napoli or Tottenham or Atletico Madrid isn't in CL when tons of clubs that aren't as good are.



Instead they get "punished" by having to play Europa League where trying to win may mean sacrificing a match in league and missing the CL the next year or being criticized for losing to small teams with half strength squads and fans that half-hope they lose. Just a bad system altogether.
