Agree with this. More than likely, it'll be BVB, Bayern and Leverkusen in the Champions League spots. I'm not sure how anyone can say any of those teams are not deserving. Furthermore, as Locke states, once the fair play rules are in force, it'll be interesting to see how the English teams fare. Youth development in Germany is head and shoulders above that in the UK and it'll make it quite easy for Bundesliga teams to abide by the new rules as they can just bring up starlets from their youth teams (like BVB with Grosskreutz, Gotze).
