As the AFC Champions League Elite prepares to enter the knockout rounds, and AFC Champions League Two prepares for a thrilling quarter final stage, we are joined by Emirati journalist Sultan Al-Ali for a full and frank discussion of the AFC's continental competitions.

Has the new League Stage format been a success? Should East & West merge from the beginning? Is Saudi and Japanese dominance a good or bad thing?

Meanwhile in ACL Two, is Shabab Al Ahli versus Sharjah the most anticipated match up of the quarter finals? Are Jeonbuk back? And how impressive have Lion City Sailors been?
