Bro... get out of here, lol. Next you're gonna suggest we give them timeouts.




Please don't do this

That's going to happen.

Water breaks where they will sell advertising. They missed a trick with this during project restart.

That right there should stop every real football fan from supporting this bullshyt.

Champions League has become stale. Same teams, boring matches.

So the solution is a league with even more of the same ol matches?

Money in football has to be distributed more evenly so teams like Belgrad, Rotterdam or Kopenhagen can make a deep run in the CL.

This was released just days before the Super League announcement.

UEFA quick to speak out on Super League, but loses its voice on racism - Shaka Hislop

but that's what American owners will want. That's the end game.. Capitalism doesn't sleep..

Looks like there will be some type of salary cap

Another key attraction is the introduction of new cost control mechanisms.

Super League clubs have committed to spending only 55 per cent of their revenues on “sport spending”, such as player salaries, transfer and agent fees, according to people familiar with the terms. Currently, European clubs typically spend 70-80 per cent of their income on footballers’ wages alone.

The competition’s structure would resemble that of “closed” North American sports leagues, where franchise owners enjoy reliable profits and team valuations have risen steadily over time.

That model has proved lucrative to many billionaire US backers of the Super League. This includes: John W. Henry who owns Liverpool and baseball’s Boston Red Sox; the Florida-based Glazer family that owns the NFL’s Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Manchester United; and Stan Kroenke own several US sports franchises such as Los Angeles Rams, as well as Arsenal.

He's not wrong on this.

The Champions League has become stale. Same teams, boring matches. I don't know if this helps but I do miss the old days.

And it's gonna be the same ole matches In the Super League.

Unless you talking bout the straight knockout days. What exactly is different now then say 10 years ago? Other then different players and Coaches.

Champion League like everything else it's all about the matches.

My early memories off watching CL, were the absolutely boring matches involving Juventus. Most CL, WC, Copa, AFCON, Gold Cup or as matter of fact, most games period are boring unless its a team you support.

Maybe they're gonna do like the nfl and have 5 million ads with like 15 minutes of actual gameplay

Please no. One of the greatest things about football is just getting to kick back for 45 minutes at a time, without interruptions. I love the NBA, but I can't get myself to watch a live game with all the time-outs/ads. Gets me right out of the game.

After hearing Florentino, it confirms they basically want a Champion's League 2.0 that means more money for them and automatic participation.

at him acting like 5 invitations is a sign of meritocracy when they have fukking Arsenal and Tottenham in there


It also seems the ESL bravado is because they believe FIFA can't legally ban their players from internatonal play and domestic leagues. I can only imagine how those lawyers at UEFA/FIFA are working overtime to come up with something that gives them the legal right to these 15 clubs.

Manchester vs Barca will be more attractive than Manchester vs a smaller team'
