I kinda think the anger towards this is tew much. Sky, The PL, the fans complaining when It was the next logical step. All these clubs dominate their individual leagues and have deep pockets, the CL was next.
Given the importance of CL football on club finances, it was going to happen. They didn't want another Leicester. When the CL final moved to Saturday, that was the first sign it was a matter of time. IMO FIFA awarding the World Cup to Qatar was a bigger farce than this.
- The Premier League won't ban these clubs. They will get an invite or two. Wouldn't be surprised if Newcastle is invited if MBS gains control.
- Everyone hates UEFA, they're essentially done
- The likes of Monaco, Celtic, Porto, Benfica, Roma and Rangers are gonna be stronger
- This is a product of spend spend spend culture
- FIFA won't ban these players.
- UEFA and the domestic leagues are in the stone ages when it comes to marketing and cost controls
- This international football schedule will be revamped
If you're a 5-7 club in Spain, Germany, you're pissed but you were already fukked.
