Good evening!
I think this has already been suggested, but I can’t find it on the VFo. As far as I can remember, it was suggested during an audio chat, but I’d prefer to put it in writing just to be sure.

I’m simply suggesting a random draw for the rounds.
Already, in the Champions League and the VFFA, the full draw is known from the outset. Perhaps it would be a good idea to have a random draw for each round? The excitement of the draw the following morning, the surprise, and so on.

Furthermore, in the LdC (and I imagine in the VFFA too), the current process means you can systematically face the same group opponent again if they also win their round of 32 match. I think that’s a shame.

Mind you, this is just my personal opinion. The idea had been put forward before and didn’t seem to meet with any opposition, so I’m putting it forward again.

Magpie: Bonsoir !
Il me semble que cela avait déjà été proposé mais je ne trouve pas sur le VFo. De mémoire, ça a été proposé lors d'un audio, mais du coup, je préfère le remettre par écrit.

Je propose simplement un tirage aléatoire pour les coupes.
Déjà, en LdC et VFFA, le tirage complet est connu dès le départ. Il serait peut-être bien de faire de l'aléatoire à chaque tour ? L'excitation du tirage chaque lendemain matin, la surprise, etc.

De plus, en LdC (et j'imagine en VFFA), le processus actue...

+1.
Above all, to avoid always having to play the same opponent in the group stage.

I totally agree – the prospect of playing the same group opponent again so soon isn’t great, in my opinion!
And the element of chance involved in waiting for the draw is nice!
