MICHEL Platini said last week that Uefa were discussing expanding the Champions League and getting rid of the Europa League from 2015 onwards and I definitely think that's a good idea.

It is the place to be in terms of ticket revenue and broadcasting rights while the Europa League is dying a death, with crowds often poor. I wonder if the discussions are on the back of what Peter Lawwell said a fortnight ago about Uefa changing their attitude to cross-border leagues, but they might be better advised to regionalise the Champions League in the early stages, rather than keeping the Champions League and introducing a regional league on top of it.
