European Super League

[artan]

Nah, they all announced it in their websites.

UEFA/FIFA are just playing hardball. All they have left is EUROs and World Cup. Without those players those competitions are worthless.

The big clubs are playing hardball. They're using this as leverage to make permanent change to the Champions League structure. It's probably why they already made changes to structure to CL giving more guaranteed spots to the bigger leagues and weed out the smaller clubs/nations. It's also why they created the League Conference tournament to have the smaller clubs to consolidate the Champions League as virtually the European Supercup, the Europa League as the B competition and the league conference where they shove everyone else in.

Now that I'm thinking about it I hope the European Super League happens. Lets turn the Champions League back to a fun and entertaining competition which isn't loaded up with English/Spanish/Italian/German and French teams. Maybe we can see Shkendija or Partizani vs Bayern Munich in the group stages lol

It’s not leverage for CL format lol. They want UEFA completely out of the equation. This is purely profit based.

Look at some of the figures being espoused for this competition. From a financial perspective there’s no way it’s not happening. The debt is catching up with clubs.

They have half of Europe's GOVERNMENTS saying they'll try to stop it, the powers against it are massive

Do you guys think this will be bad or good for us as a NT? It was hard enough getting players into Serie A, Bundesliga, La Liga, etc... Now it's another extra step. Those Albania -> Croatia/Holland -> Top 5 theories won't work anymore

But who knows... If Serie A/EPL/La Liga weaken, it might be less of a gap for our players to jump there, and they might get more opportunities.

Politicians will say whatever helps them get votes.

It's a CLOSED league. That should absolutely be a no go in Football. This is not just about money anymore as the rich are already getting richer no matter the format, but about competition. Why should Spurs be in this league when Leicester has won the league and have finishes above them in the last few years. It's pure garbage. If you wanna have an NBA like pan European league then open it up to all with Promotion and Relegation.

This whole mess has reminded me the coup in Turkey, in first hours when turkish army was outside barracks the impression was Erdogan is already done. Few hours later when the people took the streets situation changed dramatically and made him more powerful than ever was. Same thing is happening now with UEFA/FIFA, beside the corruption and scandals it seems they will survive this "coup" and become more powerful than ever. FIFA/UEFA beside Bayern,PSG and Dortmund they already have most powerful governments in their favour while owners of super league looks they don't have even approval of their managers and players so i don't think they will be able to turn this shit around. British government already warned they will refuse all work permits for Super League players and this is only beginning.
