Whilst I don't disagree that the system is too generous towards the Europa, when you are talking about the "2 more games" you need to remember that teams in the CL effectively get 5 bonus points for reaching the round of 16 (i.e. qualifyitng from their group). ....
I did mention at the start of my post that you get more points for progressing through the CL than you do the EL and rightly so, it's a superior competition. The point of the post was explaining how points for wins (and draws) are just as big, if not a bigger factor to how many points you end up picking up and it's mad how a win vs Malmo is worth as much as a win vs Bayern Munich.
By the time Chelsea had reached the quarter finals of the EL they had picked up 22 (?) points, playing Bate Borisov, Vidi, PAOK, Malmo and Dynamo Kiev. By the time Liverpool had reached the quarter finals of the CL they had picked up 18 (?) points playing Red Star, Napoli, PSG and Bayern. Of course this is just an isolated example with Liverpool having a particularly hard group and opponent in the round of 16 and Chelsea being a particularly strong side by EL standards. It just highlights how a half decent side can be better off in the EL (from a coefficient pov) than in the CL due to points system and how poor the early rounds of the EL are - had Chelsea been in the CL that season it's highly unlikely that they'd have picked up nearly as many points.
The average coefficient points for the last 4 Europa League winners has been 27.5 points, just 2.5 less than the average for a losing CL finalist (I suspect more than a semi finalist) and just 5 less than the average CL winner. It's mad when you consider the level of competition.
