and they threw a tantrum on the super league
premfaces must be the worst, nothing and nobody compares
Another Arab owner Is it true he's 10x more rich than City owner?
Either way, disgusting thing for football and another huge inflation in the market. Yay, spending 50mln on mediocrity

It never applied to these corrupt scummy oil money clubs anyways.
Super League had its flaws, but hard to believe how many morons fell for the Brit’s and UEFA’s shit. It was a direct response to UEFA allowing PSG, Man City, ManU, and the PL in general to run roughshod over football finances for the past dozen years.

And this is still irrelevant. Football finances were broken past the point of repair by how ManCity, PSG, and ManU spent over the past dozen years. They created an arms race no one could keep up with and UEFA allowed it. I went over it before, but there had never been anything close fo what PSG did with the Mbappe and Neymar transfers in the history of football. Especially without sales. Nor what ManCity, PSG, and ManU did in terms of a decade of expenditures and net spend. Even the galacticos era at Madrid wasn’t close. It was unprecedented. And has caused the downfall of Barca for trying to keep up to the point they are on the brink of financial ruin. With Madrid and others close behind, having to cut out basically all spending to stay solvent.
The oil barons invested in England because of the dominant market position of the English language. And the ability to pump unlimited cash. Sure, the old guard’s management and the governing bodies in england and Spain didn’t help matters. Nor did Covid. But the oil clubs flexing their financial muscle is what truly led us here.
Which is why a European Super League, closed, unclosed, whatever, is the only viable option. With transfer market caps, and a soft/hard salary cap. Simple as that. The past transfer window where EPL outspent all other leagues combined by multiples is just more evidence of this.
The EPL just had a decade of insane financial spending without any measure of on-pitch success until 2-3 years ago to show results for that spending. The big clubs just flushed money down the drain with zero consequence. Lol at acting like this was prudent or wise, and not just the result of having unparalleled resources and ability to outspend everyone until they eventually found success. Barca and Madrid spent less, won far far more, and still ended up at the edge of ruin. And you think this is a good thing? Lol

I don’t like massive spending of the oil clubs. Even so it’s been shown that it doesn’t equate to winning. However, the Super League is just as bad. All it does is ensure everyone in the club can spend outrageously. If you think the super league is an honest to goodness solution to the problems of modern football then…
I don’t disagree with this. But it has been shown that if you can keep outspending everyone long term, eventually that financial muscle shall be felt.
i didn’t say the proposed format was the solution though. I do think a multi-tiered European League with more transfer market regulation and salary caps is the way to go. Unless there is some sort of cross border revenue sharing/tv deal negotiation/salary cap which probably could never work with all the separate leagues. A mixed style of regulation/organization, with the better elements of current European football and the better elements of the professional North American sports leagues would do wonders for the sport.
