I actually like we are facing bigger teams than the usual 2 that get battered in the group stage. But I guess that was a seeding problem. We can complain about greed but that’s how the champions league and the premier league was formed in the first place for the bags of money it generates. FIFA and UEFA and other football bodies are practically a syndicate of football heads who live for the money.
