Well, this idea might sound good for the international fans but do you know there are people that are day to day fans ? They go to the home and away games as much as possible. This idea of an European League supplanting national leagues is a nightmare for local fans.
Why do you think the stadium of the other clubs is full when they receive PSG ? Because people love quality and entertainment. Who is to say the correct way of football being run is those people not being able to watch the talents their country has raised ?
How do they develop in sporting sense and financially (goes in hand with the branding of clubs and league) if the way it is, as you describe it, is to abdicate and let your best players leave.
In one hand you talk about ambition but you want french clubs to be unambitious. Worse, if a club is ambitious enough to try and keep those players away from your typical Big club, it is considered wasting away.
With that logic, you can never go anywhere.
PSG and Monaco, before FFP hits hard, showed that the only thing missing in France is the money. See how in most of the latest confrontation french clubs have dominated their english counterparts. Still, most of the Ligue 1 players go there due to their financial might.
I'm french, i'm proud and i don't see why we should willingly bend over if we were not so much weaker financially. Mbappé did just fine in world Cup while being in Ligue 1 so this is not an hindrance whatsoever for the national team.
Wouldn't you prefer a world where Rennes would be rich enough to keep Dembélé, Pogba would have been Le Havre graduate, Kanté at OM, Mbappé at Monaco or PSG with week in week out incredible talent displayed ? Instead, you prefer a world where we keep the leftover.
Sorry mate, i really can't understand how a french person could prefer to keep the shit at home and gives away his jewels.
