European Super Cup
What do you think of it? Is it a worthwhile match/trophy? Before I start, I want to
stress that this isn't a rant because we lost in Monaco...
This is a game which the winners of both the UEFA Cup Champions League, meet
just after the start of the season for a pretty pointless game in all fairness.
Reason I'm confused by the set up, is purely because it forms another game
which is stuck in right at the start of the season so it disrupts teams momentum's
and causes games to be re-arranged. It happened to Liverpool 3years ago, and it
happened to us last year.
Why not have it in pre-season as part of a set up? In a similar way to the
Community Shield? Its been bugging me since we lost the final, if I'm honest, and
its probably fair to say that I wouldn't be writing this had we won, but never the
less, I think its more of a punishment almost to win the Champions League.
Lets not go overboard now and talk about the WCC, if you manage to win the
Super Cup...may aswell re-arrange the whole season for those games.
