i disagree - if you see how the italian players reacted to winning the Euros or players react to the league or champion league then the aim is still to win ultimately. however, winning isnt the be all and end all and perhaps that is the problem because you dont need to win to rake in the cash. 4 "Champions" league spots has been the catalyst. all that money flowing to more or less the same clubs.
