I, on the other hand, have to say that I really find it to be something designed to just make more money and monetize football by having more appointments available and consequently more bets, more interest, etc., I find it to be something that is honestly designed on the drawing board, not to satisfy the wanted by enthusiasts but to make money on it so having said that I don't know if it's better or worse!
Money is always an unsolvable problem because as long as it generates more money, there will definitely be many ways that will be done, including changing the competition format like this. But on the other hand, regardless of what the real intention is, of course we also have to see the other side where we cannot exploit players to continue to be used as cash cows because in the end they also have a saturation point that is constrained in the professionalism of the work that keeps them going apart from their love for football. Don't let this format benefit the organizers and harm the players because of fatigue due to a fairly tight schedule.
In addition, now we cannot protest the existing decision because in any case the decision made has been agreed upon together and the organizers, clubs, players and everything related already understand the consequences that will occur later.
To be fair when teams are offered more money with a new system, they are likely to accept that. The entire football world runs on money, meaning that if they play a few games more than they used to, and that means more money from TV rights and ticket sales, they will be very happy about it, plus that also means if teams are making more money, they are going to be able to afford to pay players more as well.
Sometimes you just can't depend on inflation and increasing prices to make more money, sometimes you just need to increase the product count, which means more games for football and that's what they did.
I always suggested that every league should have AT LEAST 20 teams, some have 18, that's wrong, adding some more teams to make it 20 means 19 games in for a season, instead of 17, that extra two games, along with extra 2 here, would mean 4 more games, all tv rights, all merch, all tickets, basically meaning at least a few more million dollars for teams.
