Advantages: you get to see some amazing footy at times

Disadvantages: takes a while to get going

The Champions League is the pinnacle of club football around the world and every year provides some brilliant football. Since 2005 there has been an English club in the final every year which has seen Liverpool and Manchester United both winning it. The last 2 years has even seen 3 of the 4 semi-finals were English, which makes you wonder how we do so badly as a national side. The competition starts in July as many lowly teams from around Europe try to get through the three qualifying rounds before getting to the group stage. From there it can often be a little frustrating that the same sides dominate the groups and therefore you have to wait until February when the second phase gets underway to see Europe's top players compete against each other. This however can provide some simply pulsating football, remember the 2005 final?, and therefore i see it as the best club competition in the world.
