I'm so glad to see a league based on smart finances and fan ownership is coming out on top, sure this is only one UCL season and you can read too much into one year, Chelsea v Man Utd everyone hailed EPL as the greatest league, Juve v AC Milan everyone welcomed the return of Serie A. But I hope this goes to should slow and steady wins the race!
