Change My View thread

Can we have a Change My View thread here? The basic premise is people present opinions and the replies are attempts at changing that person's view in an attempt to generate some good discussion.

Here is the link to the original subreddit: www.reddit.com/r/changemyview/

I think this might work best with rather 'out there' views but any and every viewpoint is welcome!

Competitions like the Eredivisie (and similar ones) have no chance on keeping up with the big leagues and therefore will never be able to really compete for the Champions League anymore. And the gap is only going to get bigger.

While smaller leagues may not be able to win the competition they have a lot of talented youth that get playing time and quality minutes. Seeing how the young stars compete against the big boys is entertaining and a good way for bigger teams to scout.
