Alisson expressed mixed feelings about the new Champions League format, saying, "For the supporters, amazing. But sometimes nobody asks the players what they think about adding more games." He raised concerns about the increased number of fixtures, suggesting that player opinions seem disregarded in decisions made by governing bodies like UEFA and FIFA. Alisson's remarks highlight the ongoing tension between league formats designed for fan excitement and the physical toll on players caused by excessive scheduling.
Alisson further criticized the current state of football, noting, "It's not the first time that players or managers from European football's more successful sides have fired a broadside at the governing bodies... one only needs to look at how tired some of the players were during Euro 2024 to understand that there are far too many games being played." His statement underscores the physical strain experienced by players due to relentless commitments across various competitions.
