    I posted this in another thread.

    If the 2024 Champions League reforms kicked in next season, and the European Super League clubs are banned, this is what the group stage could look like (if I have understood the reforms):

    Automatic qualification:

    Sevilla
    Villarreal
    Real Betis
    Real Sociedad
    Leicester City
    West Ham United
    Everton
    Leeds United
    Bayern München
    RB Leipzig
    Wolfsburg
    Eintracht Frankfurt
    Borussia Dortmund
    Atalanta
    Napoli
    Lazio
    Roma
    Lille
    Paris Saint-Germain
    Monaco
    Sporting CP
    Porto
    Zenit
    Club Brugge
    Dynamo Kyiv
    Shakhtar Donetsk
    Ajax
    RB Salzburg

    Champions path qualification (with the highest-ranked clubs progressing):

    Beşiktaş
    Dinamo Zagreb
    Slavia Praha
    Olympiacos

    League path qualification (with the highest-ranked clubs progressing):

    Olympique Lyonnais
    Benfica
    Celtic
    Lokomotiv Moskva

    It looks much more exciting to me in terms of the clubs involved, but the association team allocation and format still heavily favours the top five leagues (and perhaps now needlessly so).

    All those prem fans who were slagging our league off. We would be the biggest supported club, with the biggest stadium in the UK out with the super league.

    The Premier league don't have the balls. They can't afford to lose those teams, sponsors will not renew contracts and TV deals will crumble. The Premier league needs the clubs more than the clubs need the Premier league.

    In a right in thinking the 6.5 billion the banker putting up is expected to get back so in essence that league is looking for sponsorship and tv deals of over 6.5 billion does the nfl even make that ? I think it’s over optimistic tbh the average supporter is smarter than they think just tune into their own league and let the rest get in with it

    Edit nfl is about 4 billion a season paid out by 4 different us providers

    Well if they don't these six clubs will win the EPL every year from now on and will slowly kill the game .

    No. That was a happy coincidence. :giggle1:

    I went with the four clubs with the highest coefficients in the champions path and the four clubs with the highest coefficients in the league path (which happens to include us). The other 28 clubs would qualify automatically.

    Robertson and mctominey also.

    We'd have a much better chance against England, they'd have to field lower table prem sides

    Hope the players in the super league are stopped from joining clubs outside the super league.

    Basically UEFA should enforce a pernanent transfer embargo on all those clubs.

    It will be the Brits they're phoning. They'll see it as more realistic now that places could be up for grabs.

    Football is infinitely more popular than that Yankee rubbish.

    There will no shortage of funding.

    Asia is a huge market as is the Middle East.
