Probably PSG fans who live in Paris just like English people will watch England at the World Cup.

They watched it to watch Messi and maybe Ronaldo just like people in the UK watched Basketball because of Jordan or the 100m to see Bolt. Those fans don't watch basketball now and probably won't watch the 100m in the future until another comes along and they won't watch football after Messi...

You really the whole of Argentina isn't going to watch Argentina at the world cup if Messi and couple of players are missing. The whole of England won't watch if they have to field a weakened team. etc etc They won't like it. I don't like it either but they will still watch it and so will you...

I know. I couldn't give a damn about the players. Most of the so called top players have awful tournaments anyway because they are playing in teams without other world class players.

What are you on about. No one watches the world cup because of the players. They watch it because their country is competing in it. A lot of the top players play for teams that get knocked out in the first round anyway like Salah.

Because you don't need 80K people at a game. You only need 30K or 40K. Then build them great facilities, food, entertainment, hotels. You are thinking like this won't change football but football is already changing. 100 years ago the grounds held far more people and they were all packed in line...

No my argument is I don't want teams playing in the same league as my team with vastly different resources due to guaranteed income from other competitions. It's simply unfair and makes a mockery of the competition aspect of the game. That goes for all European football however if these teams...

Don't kid yourself. If they are able to replace them then they don't want them. They only need them as long as they can't replace them and the end goal is to replace them. What kind of model do you think they want to turn European football into? They are eliminating the relegation and...

Yea of course they will. They won't pay as much for it but 90% of the people will still watch it. It's not like the players who will be there are going to be Sunday league players.

It won't. The money should be given to the leagues and the leagues should evenly distribute it. The competition should be for pride and status alone. The problem with European football of any kind is it skews the domestic game. If you believe the European competitions are more important and the...

Because that will happen to all the teams in this new Super League. They don't want the domestic fan who only goes to the game and has a season ticket. They want the fan who goes because it's his once in a year or even lifetime dream to go. The guy who spends the whole day at the ground. Who...

You seem to be missing the point that currently the games with these clubs bring in that but that's not the same as saying these 12 teams. Who knows how this league will be viewed by the public. Sure the world wide fans will go along with it but domestically a lot of fans will probably shun it...

UEFA have nothing to lose. FIFA may be forced to go along with UEFA for fear of causing a split there and let's be honest protect themselves from this happening to them in the future.

And no doubt this is so their home games will be also be played in China. At what point does it cease to be a Milan or Arsenal team?

Everton and other clubs get by with a lot less money than Spurs and Arsenal do. No club needs guaranteed money. If they are spending beyond their means then they should cut back but neither Arsenal or Spurs are spending beyond their means. What they want is to maintain the same revenue without...

City and Chelsea still have ambitions to win things. Spurs never did and Arsenal haven't had for over a decade. They just want the guaranteed income with no fear of relegation and have no problem being the whipping boys.

Unfortunately I think that is exactly what will happen and the domestic leagues will get even more uncompetitive and the teams that play in them will get smaller even if financially they will be stronger in the short term eventually leading to an even more lop sided domestic leagues a Super...

I think he meant they would stop them from working for the 6 English clubs which they most definitely can stop them from doing.

Exactly the CL is a cancer to the domestic game as things stand.

With Brexit that is now possible too. lol Brexit to the rescue.
