tldr: UEFA Nations League to begin from September 2018. No more European friendlies between nations. 4 different divisions of 55 countries.

Top division with 12 teams to be divided into groups of 3. Winners of 4 groups will contest semifinals and final in June after the league season ends.

Bottom teams in each group gets relegated to the next division and top teams of the groups in a division get promoted.

seems like a good idea

looking forward to germany winning the first edition

AC_Wesley · Sep 21, 2017

Looking forward to Holland losing their first final.

But its a long way from division 4.

KujaIX · Sep 21, 2017

My one issue with this is that it means one of the 16 shittest teams in Europe is certain to get into the Euros.

So, we're going to have to have Moldova and San Marino in there because there needs to be a team from Division 3 and 4? No thanks.

League A will consist of the 12 top-ranked teams. The next 12 teams will be in League B, the next 15 in League C and the remaining 16 in League D.
Leagues A and B will each comprise four groups of three teams.
League C will contain one group of three teams and three groups of four sides; League D will be formed by four groups of four teams.

interesting concept

lets see how spain/germany rule this league

poor holland
fucking Belgium's luck
too easy for Italy and Spain

Sage · Jan 24, 2018

another group italy won't qualify from

necromancer · Jan 24, 2018

With the new coach expected only by June, I'll be surprised if anything concrete happens in the Azzurri setup by the time this rolls around. Group stage exit quite likely.

Polotelli · Jan 24, 2018

Holland will do a stunt and send Germany to B

you heard it here first

Not if they get Montella in

Az. · Jan 26, 2018

Didn't think someone could come up with something worse then TIM Trophy.

Nostradamus · Feb 1, 2018

I dont see the negative in getting relegated..its a reward. Where is the difference, if one team from every group gets a place? Easier chances to qualify the more down u get, right?

I dont mind matches against France and Netherlands with something to play for, but this whole concept with total junk from group 3 or 4 qualifying is another bad joke though.

France would be playing so much better if Bakayoko was on the field

Mexes5 · Sep 6, 2018

France were lucky to win the world cup without Bakayoko

kevin_dk · Sep 6, 2018

Italy used to be the shit. Now they are shit.

Also Tiemoue Hahahoho would have been a great addition to the French squad.

Alec · Sep 6, 2018

Wasn't part of UEFA Nations league but whatever, Austria beat Sweden 2-0 and that's pretty cool.

If Bakayoko was Austrian, easily higher result possible in favor for Austria.
