It was always gonna be either Chelsea or City that relented first.

I already know Ryan 'bang average' Mason is gonna try and shoehorn his successor Harry 'super average' Winks back in to the first 11.

Should've let Chris Houghton get a go

They didnt want to be outsiders (Clubs) even tho they would always be the outsiders (owners).

Chelsea should have never agreed to saving those broke boys.

Lets get that good will now

They didnt need it they just wanted to play with the big boys.

 

[Yippee Ki Yay]

Chelsea should have never agreed to saving those broke boys.

Lets get that good will now

Getting some good will towards your team is some wishful thinking and dreaming going on there

It was always gonna be either Chelsea or City that relented first.

Neither team should have contemplated entering in to it in the first place with the amount of money their owners have anyway

My thing with the ESL is this, the clubs considered “super” today may not be the super ones of tomorrow as we’ve seen with some past European powerhouse clubs that have lost a bit of their pedigree across the continent e.g. Ajax, Milan, Benfica etc

But tbh, once big money got into football and it became a bonafide business then something like this was always on the cards.

A good number of the ESL clubs have some large debts they need to service (FCB, Man U, Real Madrid, Atlethi, Spurs etc).

Let’s see. I don’t think the ESL goes through but instead is used as a nuclear option to negotiate more money from UEFA.

Sad day for the sport.
