a group stage in CL would be great, even just with 6 existing nations. Currently we have 21 starters in CL (the pre-round included). Why don’t we implement a group stage (4 groups, each with 4 teams) instead of the “round of 16”. the first 2 teams of each group go to the quarterfinals. fixtures could be:
Pre-round: 83, 86
Goup matches: 92, 95, 101, 104, 110, 113
QF: Turns 119 / 122 etc.

What do you think?

We were given this suggestion before, it’s not a bad idea but will require some time to implement as we’re not ready for group stage yet :)

It’s worth trying, even for Libertadores we could have 2 groups of 4 after the pre-round. Group stages mean more money and most important, more fun!

Cheers!

Very difficult to say. But I would guess 2 months. We still have to finish the current package of changes and need to plan a new one.

cheers!
