With the announcement of Project Big Picture (aka Project Manchester 1 - 6 United and Liverpool) and the rumoured threat of a breakaway league, I wanted to comment on the new UEFA Europa Conference League starting next season.
Does anyone else see the possibility that this is part of a transition to a 'European Super League' happening under our feet?
It is a conceivable that a proposal of the top 4 or whatever clubs from each major country join a new "Champions League" that uses a more traditional league format with no knockout rounds, with relegation to the Europa League (and so on), and that the domestic leagues mutate in to something very different (that may or may not include the big clubs participation in some way).
The structure is being put in place imo. What do others think?
