Hi! My final idea of the day...
I would strongly suggest that the winner of any cup competition should gain qualification to the group stages or play offs. Either the SL or if you win the SL obviously to the CL. I know there isn't such a thing as play offs yet, but would it take much to introduce it?

It would create additional chances for the managers, the competition would be a lot more balanced as well.

Please also provide us token rewards for being successful in any competition.

Thanks for the attention! Take care! 🙂
