The premier League is TOP PRIORITY for my wife and I.

One should always priorities the PL ;)

Chubby Robbie from AFTV isn't a fan now after the last round of results, they've began "we are going to win fuck all" pretty early this season.

“We are going to win fack all”

I think that the problem is that UEFA said every game would have jeopardy. Yet after 4 games there are at least 5 teams who cannot qualify for the KO stages. I think that livarpool only need 1 more win to guarantee being in the KO phase.

All teams can still qualify for the play-off round and could then progress to the full knock-out phase.

Eighth place team has nine points after four games so the requirement could be eighteen points if there was equal difficulty in the first four games. We have seven points so three wins could be tight and three wins and a draw might not be enough.
Some clubs may not be able to make the play-offs when the final two games are played and could field weak or experimental sides thus giving their opponents a huge advantage. This is unlikely to include PSG and Brugge.

Exactly, it's like the Nations League of club football. Dull and utterly uninteresting.

Don’t know what the answer is but the group stages had been fucking wank for years. At least you play some varied teams in this and a couple of decent ones. Obviously it’s many a money grab with the extra games. Football is fucked though anyway as we all know. Our club prove it regularly by constantly shitting on their diehard fans.
