according to Dalian Local media Byland moning edition, Dalian won't take ACL as a most important match in 2006 Season, considering the ACL formate and Fixture, it's not easy to win the champions. and ACL will effect the clubs' performances in domestic leagues, and west asian clubs are too horrible on economic, so East asian Champions will be more feasible. Dalian Shide's object in 2006 season: to Dalian the importance of these matchs are: CSL>A3CC>CFA Cup>ACL ACL: win the group stage A3CC: Champions CSL: Champions CFA Cup: as good as possible, But CSL is the first choice
I think this is an automatic. A team that doesn't put CSL above ACL is making a huge mistake. For any team, domestic league is ALWAYS the most important thing and unlike the real CL, ACL doesn't bring in enough money to make it valuable to go far and thus there is little incentive.
Does the A3CC bring in more money than the ACL? I'm questioning why they're putting that and the CFA Cup in front of the ACL.
