Why though? Winning the league is still winning the league. We want to keep Liverpool from getting 20. We wanna get the 21st. Need to break City's Hegemony. The only thing it would change is that 6 of the clubs would not care about the top 4 battle and isn't that what our fans make fun of us for these days? Caring about the top 4 trophy? West Ham and Leicester still want the top 4.
You're right. Oh how I saw Arsenal fans mocked for celebrating top 4. I think suggestions that the players will just not bother is absurd.
It's actually showing a lot of fans up. Very few seem to be making genuine arguments about why it's bad for other clubs, I'm not actually seeing any real meat to why it's bad. It's just a giant toddler tantrum at the moment, there's almost no actual discussion. Just posts containing no more than 'I feel like I've been stabbed in the heart'.
People have fallen for the broadcaster rage hook, line and sinker. Neville didn't make any actual points either and I think everyone is just copying him and others like him because he's managed to get them seething and angry at 'the man'.
I actually feel the standard of punditry on this has been a disgrace. Lots of one liners and clichés, no actual derails or substance as to why its bad, not even the remote entertainment that it could be good and that's how you know they are being dishonest. Such a transparent kick off because some very rich people are worried. Rio on BT rambled almost the exact same thing as Neville and not in a good way, not in a 'these guys have points' here way. Rio seemed like he was struggling to remember what he'd been told to say and fell back on just saying what he'd heard Gary say. The broadcasters are shitting themselves and it's for the same greedy reasons that those who want the super league, want the super league. It's not because of the fans, they've been fleecing the fans for years. Sky have been suckling 'the soul' from football for you ars. Propping up the top clubs etc, doing everything they are ranting about now. This is an act of defence and fans have lapped it up.
There are potential positives to at least talk about, there are concerns to be had but its impossible to have a proper discussion amongst all the melodrama.
