Exactly. I don't see why Hearn is messing around with the qualification, it has worked perfectly as top 6 and two wildcards. With the records the wildcards have I dred to think of some faces that will appear in the future PL. Think he should leave well alone.
I suppose he feels that by reducing the number of automatic qualifiers to 4, it should make other players improve their performance throughout the season to try and get 3 of the places.
Although I agree, the system works OK as it is. I can't stop thinking that it's Sky who have pushed this change through rather than Hearn, so that they can choose more of the TV favourites.
