What's the attraction of the domestic league if this takes place? Will it become a glorified Coppa?

In these last 5-10 years, I equal football with Juve. About 90% of the football I watch are Juve matches, so the more Juve matches the better as far as I'm concerned. But I'm wondering what's gonna happen to serie A? The main reason for teams like Roma, Napoli or Lazio to invest was to make it to top 4 and play in CL. If that is taken away from them, then their quality will drop by a lot, and what is going to be the point of Juve, Inter and Milan playing 30-38 matches every week against vastly inferior opponents, when those matches won't matter at all and all these big 3 teams will be thinking is going to be the midweek match against Barca, City or Real.

i am sure some of the experds answered all of these questions already but i don't feel like going back and reading 40 pages.

i have doubts about this stuff.

First of all; this is big fuck off to smaller teams. what happened to so called maintaning the good relations with them policy?

second; football is losing populartiy around the world. when i was a kid, almost all football matches were free to watch on tv. nowadays you can't even watch cl without paying money. newer generations don't watch matches like we did back then. element of surprise is big part of football. you know, a much smaller side can achieve great things in football unlike other sports such as basketball. same teams facing each other over and over again, how popular and profitable is it going to be?

ALSO; if you look at last three opponents knocked us out from cl, there is a serious chance that we will get our asses handed over us unless we change %60 of the current squad. Some can say that with the increased revenues we can do that but what is the point if we are going to buy de paul for 70 million instead 40 million? Because we will be seen as cash cow by other teams.

The last winner doesnt matter, the overall winner matters. Does any one remember last English champion before EPL? I dont. I just know Liverpool won the most.
True but how great would of been if we won ten Scudetto in a row then out of nowhere said you know what we're too good for this farmers league then went and joined the Super League :maddy:

The system of super-leagues works perfectly in USA. Don't get it what's the big fuss. Local football will continue to exist.

UEFA mafia wants the monopol forever.

Well big fuck you goes to them.

How great would it be if we finish 5th and Agnelli says

"We move to Super League because investments need to be protected and not sports merit. Atalanta, a club with total wage bill less than our star player anally raped me, no lube, and so we want to have a guaranteed spot."

There is no turning back from this.
UEFA and FIFA knows it too.
FIFA already nuanced they're ban declaration calling for calm and negotiations to begin instead of fighting the process altogether.
Fifa don't really give a fuck, it's UEFA who is loosing the most, yet they only have CL and shitty euros, players won't give up on money because they can't play euros.

I'm guessing each domestic league will have teams that can qualify for the super league? If you finish fourth for example?

I think the eventual direction top clubs might want to take is making ESL the top of the pyramid of European football with some kind of relegation / promotion system in place (promotion would be the real challenge, balancing between lower continental cups and domestic leagues) and the ESL clubs participation in domestic leagues limited to some kind of playoff format or similar.

let me get this straight. we are pulling out of cl right? regardless, these clubs will need much bigger squads? two starting 11's prefarably.
No. We are neither pulling out of the CL nor the league. We are going to participate in another league. What is happening now is that UEFA and the domestic leagues are issuing threats that if we play there they will kick us out. But I guess the founding clubs don't care about that threat. If they kick us out, they are the ones who lose in the long term.....hell even in the short term

so, if they don't kick us out, we are also playing in cl?

I think we are pulling out of CL even if we qualify, yes.

in a normal mid-August-start of june season the schedule would pretty much as packed as in 19/20 with the COVID spring break and the 20/21 season that started a month late, so the squad changes wouldn't even have to be as drastic.
