    Point is that it takes playing well consistently on a week in week out basis to win a league, not just raising your game for the odd match like it does to win a cup tournament. Yeah, obviously every team has its bad days in a league campiagn but the point remains the same.


    Why do you think that in competitions like the FA Cup the top teams dont always make it the furthest - its the nature of cup football that the best team on the day goes through - that doesn't necessarily mean that the best team goes through.

    That's what i love about the FA cup, it's a one off and small clubs know that they can make big bucks and perform much better on the day.....

    The CL is different to the Prem, but certainly no less worthy, it's about being able to perform on the big occasion rather than being consistent against the lesser teams, like the World Cup. I mean against the top teams Man U scraped 2 undeserved wins against Liverpool and lost or drew the other games.

    And you play home and away in the CL, apart from in the final so it's fair, it's usually the likes of Real Madrid, AC Milan or Liverpool who win it, so it obviously does a pretty good job of sorting the wheat from the chaff.

    True enough mate - it is usually won by one of the top teams as it takes putting together an impressive string of results but still, I think a teams league position is a much better guide to their performances over an entire season and therefore how good they are on a consistent basis.


    Your right it is like the World Cup in the respect that its about performing on the big occasion - and how often is the World Cup (or European Championships for that matter) not won by the best team in the tournament - Greece as best team in Europe anyone?
