As an Englishman, you'd think I am 'over the moon' that all four English Premier League clubs have made it through to the quarter-finals of the UEFA Champions League, but I'm not! Where is the interest in, say, Arsenal playing Chelsea and/or Man Utd vs Liverpool (or any other combination)? The beauty of European competition is the prospect of playing teams from other countries who play in a different style. Now we have homogeneous football played by multinational teams - there's no soul or heart any more!
