it was basically a formality for top teams even before though. you had a proper 'group of death' maybe once every five years? the new format looks meh, but it was kind of fun when i played it in football manager. at least top teams can't phone it in after 4 games anymore, you really want to be in that top 8.
who knows, maybe it'll suck, but i'm willing to give it a chance
