Waste of time imo.

Qualifying was an absolute joke.

not ofc, said it when they announced the change, said it during the qualifiers which already were a joke and this group stage proves it again... bad change but money rules so i don't expect a change back...

The more the merrier? It's nice countries like Hungary, Iceland get to play in these(although some games will be boring). And if the euro changes to 32 teams maybe holland can be in it too!

It's awful.

If we have to have 24 teams, then the format should be like in the 1982 world cup:

24 teams in the group stage -> 12 teams in a second group stage, where you have 4 groups of 3 -> semis and final.

You've got loads of teams that no one really wants to see - Romania, Turkey, Albania, Hungary, Austria, Iceland, Germany - ain't nobody got time for that.

on the onther hand, mediocre teams like Wales, Poland, England, Portugal, Switzerland etc. now have a decent chance to survive the group-stage...

Don't mind it, it's slightly less exciting but not a big difference
