Cl itself and bosman arrest already put us on this trajectory. Globalization and internet accelerated it while covid presented the right opportunity.
But Leicester winning epl or Ajax kids cl definitly didnt help in that regard.
Its not about sport, underdogs and fans anymore but about...
One thing we should consider is it being a power play towards Uefa who are set to release the new cl set up today.
Which woukd still suck but less than this stupid idea.
Also exposes Madrid for the favouring they got on vl if he has this much pull.
Irony is if this all goes trough he killed his own legacy like some guy on reddit said. Madrids accomplishments will be viwed similairy to how we see Pele and his friendly wins snd 1200- goals.
Yeah with international matches you would be looking at a big number of matches.
But besides that it totally kills the sporting aspect.
Leicester city winning Epl and Ajax cvl run eliminating Juve amd Madrid is gone with thos set up amd most likely what confirmed the idea.
The pure greed behind...
I dont think the leagues will agree to it. They know this kills them off in the long run.
Especially with the guarenteed spots and 400 mil a yea guarentee.
So we have 75+ matches a year? Also if they get 400 mil guarenteed then its game over for every pther club. They cant compete with that.
There is also no point in finishing high or low in the league.
Mightvas well put barca b in.
They are just waiting to get the negative press out of the way.
The clubs know people will hate this. Thats why they do it now with the pandemic preventing protests and angry fans in the stadium.
They probably researched it well and know eventually they will get their way and will have enough...
The solution is salary caps, max foreign players at a club and 51-49 ownership like in Germany.
This super league is making a bad situation even worse. The next level after that is make it global.
Harlem globetrotter style.
If this goes trough I will stop watching football and stop supporting...
