Corruption has been involved in football in Turkey and we have 0 teams in the league after 27 years.
Thanks to our visionary administration
Pffff. Football is so last century. It’s all about floorball now.
In Poland we dont have a single team in CL. We Got our own called Ekstraklasa tho, where there are 18 useless teams
Take that Sweden!

Denmark
Bundesliga = “farmers League”
/s
Europa League better.
For anyone wondering, Israel got kicked out from the Asian association, so that is why they are in Europe now
One of the reasons that I have stopped watching CL the last 8 or so years. It used to be this exciting thing that you didn’t know who would win. Between 1978 and 1997 you had several teams that won the trophy for the first time. Nottingham Forest, Aston Villa, Hamburg, Juventus, Steaua,Porto, PSV, Red Star, Barcelona, Marseille, Borussia Dortmund. From 1998 until today you only have one, Chelsea. The reason is that UEFA opened up the competition to several teams from the big countries, made sure those teams will be largely protected from playing each other until later in the competition and then gave the biggest part of the earnings to them. This crated a feedback loop where big teams have all the money, money buys talent, talent brings success, success brings money, money brings talent. I am bored of watching the same clubs on top.
Compare that to 20 years ago. At this point just put all the teams from the top 4 leagues. Champions league my ass.
The really impressive one here is Scotland’s two teams
I haven’t been watching football for some time, but what’s the background to this? Why does GER have more teams than spain or england, and why does turkey have none?
