The irony is that this Heineken-Sony-Ford money 'top Euro club comp' footie is called 'Champions' League', when it is a bit of League/ultimately Cup.
It is often won/contested by teams finishing 3rd-4th-5th in their national League, who have the sense to try to win this - I have said elsewhere about a year ago that I am surprised Chelsea were bothered to try to win Premiership for 3rd meaningless time - like Liverpool, they should have concentrated on the Community Shield and 'Champions' League' (non-champions welcome).
In Serie A, Milano have been worse than Roma.
