Will miss special European nights like this.
Its on his story.Is that the "football cannot be bought" one.
I saw screenshot on fan pages, but no actual post from him on Twitter or insta
The UEFA president is lawyer too. So he should know what he is talking about.
I really can't understand why some support the SL? Yes the associations have been bad but doesn't mean we should take the side of the SL because the associations have been bad.
10 times is an exaggeration. It would not really be that much different from the current Champions League.It's not a stupid argument at all. Watching Madrid and Barca play each other ten times a season will get boring very quickly. The whole allure around these games for most people aside from tge rivalries/players is the fact it's a luxury that doesn't come around often. It's to be savoured when it does.
https://www.manchestereveningnews.c...s/man-utd-old-trafford-redevelopment-18246764Suddenly Nev cares about the state of Old Trafford. Did it suddenly flood yesterday? Because he sure as hell didn't give a feck about it until then.
yeah lets do away with laws against anti-competitive behaviour because of football.The courts follow the law made by governments that are voted by people that also are fans of clubs.
Why will they not care about winning the league? City are always winning the Carabao cup ffs and theyre the richest team in world footballI don't think they will.
I agree with Carragher, I think you'd see those 6 clubs using the PL as a chance to rest and rotate.
What I meant is that there is a way out: courts follow the laws, but the laws can change if people want it.

It's the opposite of a stupid argument. It's fecking obvious to anyone with a shred of imagination who can project a couple of years into the future.The "people will get tired of watching Madrid and Barcelona" argument is stupid. I'd be happy to trade Burnley, West Brom, etc for the European elite teams. I have no problem with that aspect of it whatsoever.
Cheapshot oneliner artists the lot of them.Anyone taking any shots or posting false equivalence posts at the people who are trying to band together to stop this need to take a good hard long look at themselves.
Now is not the time for rivalries tribalism and whatever else.
That's called theft.
Definitely about the owners and greed. However, they haven’t even mentioned any alternative point other than AMERICANS BAD Y’ALL!! Why not look at how this has come to pass? It’s just total hysteria - they had their battle lines before they even knew what it sodding was.Klopp agrees with every word of those twats in the studio, he just doesnt have the bottle to jeopardise his contract right now.
Because Manchester United don't belong in the EL, we should play CL football every year. End of. Real Madrid and Barcelona would never let that happen to them. We shouldn't pay for our management's incompetence.How is us just being handed an invite and permanent residence in this Super league better than actually qualifying for it by winning matches?
A top competition against Europe best... you do realise that currently there are only 6 other teams from Italy and Spain.It's happening. And I welcome it. I'd rather watch United play in a top competition against Europe's best teams instead of watching Thursday night football, or worse, watching us celebrating top four finish only to get our asses handed to us time after time and watching the oil clubs battle for the title.
At least now the field will be level, we will be able to match the oil clubs financially.
I'm sure when the CL replaced the EC and when the PL replaced the FD there were a lot of unhappy people too. And listen to all those hypocrites on Sky now talking shit because their employer is going to lose money. Quickly forgot how they were wanking weak in weak out on City's oil football.
How much difference is it to the current Champions League? It's 80% the same teams every year now.It's the opposite of a stupid argument. It's fecking obvious to anyone with a shred of imagination who can project a couple of years into the future.
The SL has one winner, and nothing else. And the winning club gets a tiny bit more prize money than a team involved who lose every match. It's a glorified friendly competition.

Exactly. None of the managers are going to say anything against the owners. I, for one would stop watching Manchester United if they go ahead and play in this Super League.Klopp agrees with every word of those twats in the studio, he just doesnt have the bottle to jeopardise his contract right now.
Thats not a serious question is it?How much difference is it to the current Champions League?
Because there's already the feeling the Glazers don't care about winning the title. They just want us good enough to make top 4.Why will they not care about winning the league? City are always winning the Carabao cup ffs and theyre the richest team in world football
The same core group of teams qualify for the CL season after season as it is.Thats not a serious question is it?
Not going to justify that with an answer. Figure it out.
Sure. Just don't feel the need to make sure no one gets a pat on the back who doesn't deserve it. There's a bigger thing at stake here. The historical analysis can take its course after this is overcome.Applaud the fans and the model yes not the clubs they have nothing to do with this. Just watch some of the meetings between Hoeness and the fans to see that they also see them being in the way.
Odd that it hasn't come up at any of the dozens of commentary jobs he's done at the stadium, then.https://www.manchestereveningnews.c...s/man-utd-old-trafford-redevelopment-18246764
He's been complaining about the state of Old Trafford for a while.
That we are not in it, and 3/4 clubs that are still there bought their way in anyways.A top competition against Europe best... you do realise that currently there are only 6 other teams from Italy and Spain.
If you want to watch the best competition with Europe best, what is wrong with the CL?
I don't think these people in favor are really thinking about what this "competition" actually entails outside of more glamorous match ups. It's genuinely as shallow and lifeless as a football tournament can get from what we currently know.It's the opposite of a stupid argument. It's fecking obvious to anyone with a shred of imagination who can project a couple of years into the future.

FIFA and uefa don’t need to outright ban or kick anyone out, they just have to be clever in how they set their own rules eg.The courts follow the law made by governments that are voted by people that also are fans of clubs.
yeah like many others, I still can’t believe Tottenham are invited to this party.Xenophobia? Levy is English, no?
Then fecking earn it. Because if you're not qualifying for the CL it means you're not good enough and don't deserve to be there.Because Manchester United don't belong in the EL, we should play CL football every year. End of. Real Madrid and Barcelona would never let that happen to them. We shouldn't pay for our management's incompetence.
What on earth are you on about?Because Manchester United don't belong in the EL, we should play CL football every year. End of. Real Madrid and Barcelona would never let that happen to them. We shouldn't pay for our management's incompetence.
Yet they were happy to wear Tshirts supporting a racist - the cnuts.Tweet

Nights like that are what footballs all about. Hell, not performing and not getting to take part in nights like this is in a way what football should be about. I remember back when it was Van Gaals last season and we scored a late ish winner against Watford at home when we were chasing the top four, the feeling was amazing and it was gutting when we didn't make it in the end. With these changes all that is gone, it takes the emotion out of the sport.Will miss special European nights like this.
They don't care about the fans THAT much, mate. Need to be a subscriber for thatAre the Sky youtube live stream not showing the game?
Why is it such a widely shared opinion if it's so stupid? It's really only logical.The "people will get tired of watching Madrid and Barcelona" argument is stupid. I'd be happy to trade Burnley, West Brom, etc for the European elite teams. I have no problem with that aspect of it whatsoever.
