I don't object any of above suggestion. I specifically support 4 & 8.

For 5, I am happy for the league drawing method in last 2 seasons (I did not check my league, so I'm not sure).

Every league draw method have it advantage. If it should change, I personally prefer complete random drawing for leagues, CL groups teams with similar qualities in same level, Cup remains the same to group similar quality teams regardless of level so as to a special challenge even though I have no ability to take part. I know many managers do not like Cup drawing method. But I think it has its advantage and understand the difficulties of Nordeus in handling this.
