All of the clubs are posting the same thing I guess..
And Spuds? Seriously? They've won nothing of note for decades.

However, we've been very active in seeking this for a long time now...I remember Wenger talking about it and even prior to that. Just didn't include Man City, Spuds or Chelsea at the time.

They've wanted to do this for decades. That's why UEFA need to stamp this out once and for all now.
Well, for one thing how can the best players in the World not be allowed to represent their countries? It's going to make the World Cup seem like an Olympic event.
And what will they do set up their own national teams. It won't be long until they okay matches all over the world as well in Asia etc.
It's like American sports. There will be plenty of investments and it'll be governed by the teams themselves and their leaders. All the power to glazers and their likes.
This is like an episode of black mirror. Feels surreal.
So, at least we can be bang average in the Super league.
..and blaming it on the pandemic. Just no shame in their greed.
I wonder how Everton feel. They used to be one of the original 'big six'.

Yeah. Like everything in the World right now.
Safe to say I won't watch a second of this nonsense.
On the upside Champions League might actually be worth watching again now, with all the boring shit shows being gone.
This is what happens when you sell out to the yanks and the UAE

Don’t forget the Russians #roman
What makes you think that Arsenal would be the only top club to stand against this if we weren't American-owned? None of the La Liga clubs are either.
PSG have won the CL
Maybe the players will have a say .. but once they are getting paid I don't think most will care.
Is this not just effectively replacing the midweek CL games, if not I don't see why the PL can't just go on as it is. It just removes the 'top 4 prize' and makes Uefa redundant.

Because the next step is to replace the PL, La Liga, Serie A etc with this shite.

Maybe but that isn't what's being proposed.

You'd be naive to think otherwise.
The PL won't matter anymore, you think Kroenke will care that we are relegated and play in League 2? The money will be in the Super League.
