Manchester United have finished 3rd in the English Premier League each of the last two seasons and have not advanced past the quarter finals in the Champions League over that time, but they are given a #1 seed.
This discrepancy means that teams earning automatic qualification for winning their leagues (like Chelsea, Lyon, and Juventus) can be ranked lower than other teams from the same league that had to go through the qualifying rounds just to make the tournament (like Inter Milan, Liverpool, and Manchester United).
So reigning Champions would be rewarded and teams that are far different from ones that competed five years ago would not be punished for the failings of previous players and coaches.
