It's still infinitely more interesting in Argentina though because the talent factory gives every club a chance to compete. 8 different champions in the last 8 tournaments. |

As I say, it makes it interesting, I definitely like the idea of different teams winning all the time. What's the talent factory? |

The talent factory is the country. All of these teams keep developing their own starlets, get a few years out of them, then sell them on to Europe to keep the club afloat. Quote:

Re: Argentinian relegation rules...
8 different winners in 8 tournaments is fair enough, as long as teams can still be good enough to dominate.
sport at the highest level - most sports probably - have histories littered with repeat winners, dynasties, and dominant periods from the greatest players/clubs. that's why maybe the main criticism you could throw at the CL isn't that it stops teams being able to compete, it's that it has never managed to produce a format that ensures a continuation of the pattern of the competition's previous history. it's a flawed criticism in so many ways. then again, as a pseudo once said, before it was a life, after it will be a life edit: hello thursday... ...it's a flawed criticism to say that the CL format atm prevents competition outside the top two or three clubs in the top two or three leagues - it doesn't, most of the rest only ever made an impact occasionally anyway, and none of them consistently. currently we're in a period where the format has deliberately changed the history of the competition, and no team has ever retained the champions league. the current era is for that reason almost entirely detached from the pre-CL competition, although it's fair to say that the domination of manchester united and barcelona over the past 6 seasons has gone some way to returning the competition back into its original context. |
