    European Super League

    It's funny how 10 years ago Atletico wouldnt even have been invited to a Super League. Almost like football is a dynamic environment in which teams can quickly rise and fall based on their performance. Something the Super League wants to eliminate by protecting the "usual suspects" over...

    European Super League

    This I think would be a gigantic step forward not for English, but European football in general. How do you expect this to go forward though since the PL is already fully infiltrated by club owners and not only the top 6? If the clubs who already have owners are not affected, then what will...

    European Super League

    Whatever breakaway from UEFA ever happens should never be spearheaded and administred by the likes of Florentino Perez or any PL sugardaddy. These people are not your friends and are not intending to make football more competetive, or closer to the fans.

    European Super League

    Been a full arsed no for a while, think Rummenigge came out 5 times in 36h speaking about this already.

    European Super League

    FFP was the Plan B to originally having a salary cap in place. In 2009 Platini wanted to introduce the latter, had approval even of the relevant clubs, then walked up to the European comission and proposed this idea. He got it rejected however since he basically prepared his concept fuck all...

    European Super League

    The traditional route worked great and I'd love it to return, but there have to be tweaks in general to make this a thing because as you said, football in the commercial era is too inflated for that to work out very well. That's why I think football in general has to make tweaks to cripple the...

    European Super League

    Pep always struck me as some sort of weird dude who never really cared about anything but tactics. The fact that even he thinks this sucks says a lot.

    European Super League

    I'd assume that what you want is a watered down version of the CL that eliminates the "irrelevant" clubs for entertainment purpose. Eventually only the top 5 leagues will have access to it, which I dont think is the way to go. Ideally there should be ways to reverse the top 5 league dominance...

    European Super League

    - Bobo Johnson wants to introduce laws to stop the ESL - Perez supposedly lied about ESL agreements being binding - reports of City and possibly Chelsea getting cold feet and wanting to pull out - Zidane diplomatically called out Perez in a public interview - Rummenigge doubles down Bayern will...

    European Super League

    At the moment I'm not sure how much I believe this. I would LIKE to believe this, but you gotta be careful as many newspapers will currently report what people like to hear. If there's an announcement of City in the next 48 hours, then I'm sure ESL is done however.

    Do you agree with the concept of a European Super League?

    I wonder how many of the people who clicked Yes are truely on board with this concept, and how many are just currently discontent with UEFA and only want to see some shit set on fire.

    European Super League

    If you heard senile Perez yesterday, it's clear he is loosing his shit. You can very much see that he genuinely thought everyone bar UEFA thought this was a great idea and would be fully on board with this. He didnt expect clubs, players, fans and even governments to revolt. According to some...

    Imagine 2 years ago siding with UEFA and Bobo Johnson to save football.. We're truely running out of options.

    European Super League

    I mean yeah, and 99% of other clubs pledged their TV deals during the pandemic to pay employee salary.. That's kind of having a lack of fair distribution. We dont need more billions inflating the market, but structures that help diverting the billions we already have to a wider range of clubs...

    European Super League

    Football doesnt suffer from a lack of global exposure. It's the most watched sport in the world. It suffers from a lack of fair distribution.

    European Super League

    There isnt new revenue, it's just redistribution of existing revenue and market shares. Broadcast/sponsorship in domestic leagues/UEFA comps will decrease significantly and instead be invest into the ESL, who keep 90% of it and repay 10% of it as "solidarity payments" or whatever which is less...

    European Super League

    this isnt much different except these clubs pocket a largely bigger cut than UEFA did.

    European Super League

    The loan is binding, not the league itself. JP Morgan isn't paying for the league, they are giving these teams an advance loan. They get 3% interest on this massive loan in return.

    European Super League

    Only 15 clubs will get more cash. The rest is worse off than before. This isnt in any way adressing the gap between the rich and the poor, this is just going in the direction "well lets just fuck the poor then".
