They are yes. But they are also the ones that made this fall apart.

I mean, cmon, how did they side with Perez? I sense something's rotten in Madrid.

Thanking Brexit for the first in my life.
Chelsea have finally released their official statement. Summary:
Perez isn't giving up!
I seriously don't know what else they can do to make this a reality.
Surely he must understand that given the events of the past 48 hours, no English club with any sense will ever go anywhere near something like that again?

So..
Barca get 220m for Neymar, waste 280m on Coutinho and Dembele, then raise a loan to sign a player whose position is already occupied by the best player in the world for 120m. Madrid rebuilds its stadium for almost 800m then wastes 140m on a player with one year left on his contract. Juve signs a 33 year old for 100m and probably pays him around 50m per season. T Luckily there's Perez to identify the root of all these problems: The CL simply isn't profitable enoug!
They are probably the worse. The rats are the first to jump the boat. The only ones to be praised are the ones that didnt go with this abomination from the start: bayern, dortmund, PSG and others that were proposed.
Chelsea and city wanted in as the ones that remained longer in bur shit their pants the first.
There's precedent. The isles of scilly league has a grand total of 2 teams who continuously play each other all season.
Appears to have worked
Beyond stupid. As rummeneige said, costs are the problem, not the revenue

Yes Bayern and PSG do deserve praise. But I still applaud Chelsea and City for making this fall apart.
We should still be punished in some form,this was a coup.

Perez is one of those egotistical old rich pricks who constantly looking to leave a legacy.
Winning feck knows how many CLs wasn't enough for him, he got involved in this thinking he'd be remembered fondly for reshaping the entire game.
So proud of you guys. You did it! 
Never a doubt in my mind!
Never a doubt in my mind!
We didn't do shit
That's the most important job really. All the dirty work is done at the shitpost.
You lost, unlucky.
Yeah alright.
Lets no go over board. La liga is far from boring
I hope this starts a war between UEFA and Spanish teams. God knows how many times these two teams have been helped by the refs in the champions league.
Chelsea vs Madrid is going to be exciting.

The ESL saga is yet another woodward masterpiece. Thank god for his ineptitude!
To be fair, I would only praise Dortmund as they would have a reason to jump on (again, it depends if they had a chance because of their laws). Bayern does not need it, they have a total monopoly in Germany, PSG also, as they are one of the reasons we have some of the biggest problems in football. I used to live in Germany and no one can tell me that the situation in German football is good. The only team who is slowly challenging Bayern (very slowly) is a team owned by a billionare (who does run it well, but it helps that the team is located in Germany).
In all seriousness it is the owners that want punishing. Why should Ole and the lads suffer for their cloak and dagger shite?
Truth
I said in some form didn't I. Maybe the owners should pay a fine.
Come on. The last CLs went to:
Bayern
Liverpool
Madrid
Madrid
Madrid
Barcelona
Madrid
Bayern
Chelsea
Barcelona
Inter
Barcelona
United
That's one (!) oil club in the conversation. Barca, Madrid and co. have gotten themselves into these situations. Barca didn't need to spend half a billion on players they didn't need and had no place for in the team, especially not if it required raising a loan.
FFP was supposed to curb it but UEFA fecked that up. Now who knows what the answer is the SL obviously wasn't. And with FFP gone I expect we'll have more Oil states buying clubs in the near future.
I don't believe that's the case here. We speak about the biggest bank in United States being behind this. I fear there are lots of things going on behind the scenes that explain much of what we are seeing here.
No power isn't quite accurate. Swansea have a supporters trust and it does allow for a say in matters, as well as improving accountability and transparency. It can still be circumnavigated but it's a lot better than nothing.
I think people were entitled to wait for more information. I also think some would still be onboard with the ESL proposal and that is their right, different supporters will have varying desires and ideas of how football should be played. I'm very grateful to the supporters who opposed the plans and made their voices heard though, as without the public backlash there is no doubt it would have gone ahead. Even more so to supporters of the ESL clubs who spoke out in opposition.
2017 in NYC, what a bunch of cnuts.
Dude slept early. Woke up just now to this good news. I never advocated for ESL and voted no.
I thought these clubs would have prepared for eventual onslaught but you can hardly blame me for their incompetence. What was the point of this when you pull out in 3 days?

Looks kind of photo shopped, real? Hope so because I want to send around.
I imagine he means taking current trends into consideration. It's only a matter of time before City or PSG win it. City's spending seems to have made them a better run club than United at this point. I'm sure that's also down to actually making intelligent decisions, but I am pretty sure the final resistance of the old guard clubs is crumbling.
Yeah real, if you Google "John W Henry Gazidis Glazer Woodward restaurant" you'll find numerous newspaper articles about it from the time
Thanks mate
Didn't United officially pull out before Chelsea did?
