Yes, the two "minor" European competitions have a whiff of authenticity about them. Great clubs who have been marginalised by the preposterous finances of the so-called "super clubs" battling it out for an unexpected and deeply desired continental trophy. Eintracht Frankfurt is a great historic club here in Germany. It's one of about 10 what I would call "huge" clubs here in Germany. But the ownership structure in German football means CL contention is restricted to Bayern. I'm delighted that a proper club has a big trophy tonight. Their fans have been magnificent - most notably in filling the Camp Nou on the night they buried the complacent, entitled, corrupt Barcelona in their own stadium. Delightful.

I enjoy watching EL & EC same way I like the Championship for its competitiveness.
Barely watch the PL or CL these days as they are sham competitions set up for the elite protected by UEFA and FFP/VAR.
@Saint Domingo
For somebody who barely watched the PL, you certainly wanted us to sign a LOT of Premier League players.
I can assume by this post that you havent seen Ings, Wilson or Zaha play then?
They signed Ramsay in a fanfare of publicity.
He really has been a big disaster for them.

This season's two junior competitions were very authentic. The clubs - and fans - competing in the last four of these tournaments really wanted to win. It meant something.
The CL has become an utterly corrupt closed shop. Liverpool - Real Madrid is about as closed as it gets. The establishment, the breakaway scabs of the Super League, pious, entitled, unrepentant. I think many fans see this for what it is: a stitch up. They should have been banned. Again, in the case of one.
It was great to see the likes of Roma, Feyenoord, Marseille, Eintracht Frankfurt, and West Ham contest continental semi-finals. None of these clubs has a ticket to the ball, and none could count on getting back any time soon. Real football clubs, real football.
It's come to something when big clubs like these are now basically "the little guy". But the likes of Paris Saint-Germain and Manchester City are in no way, shape, or form bigger clubs or more historic clubs than Eintracht Frankfurt. They are artificially inflated by despot finance. It's killing the club game.

Used to watch a lot of PL football until I finally woke up to the truth.
When people acknowledge reality they lose interest in watching Man City amd RS clock up 95 points every season and clubs like Brighton, Wolves and Palace head patted for finishing 10th making up the numbers but playing decent footie and winning a few unexpected games against the "big 6".
oh you want us to go down for days out don’t ya lol

Yeah, there is a futility to it all.
What do you watch football for?
Hopefully cowering in fear that, one day, she’ll be behind bars for her crimes
