I am going to bed and sending thoughts and prayers for Flo's ego which has gone down in flames. There's only so many Ls one man can take before even someone like him realises he's a parody of a human being.
Florentino Pérez: The saviour of football.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) was joined by comedian Ali Woods to look back at the best and worst moments of a rollercoaster season with the annual United Hour Awards.
Has Ten Hag been sacked yet? We're not sure and we hope not, but it's looking more likely as the days pass.
Who should replace him and why is it taking so long to make a decision?
This man has covid brain.
Agreed. But then that part was pretty much the main point, at least for the US-owned clubs, so....
"It's almost like...like...they think we are destroying football, or something!"
It's never a pretty sight, watching a man frantically trying to talk himself out of having to face reality.

He stands for almost everything that's wrong with modern football. The sooner he has nothing to say in football, the better for the sport.
Not sure how a single signing 100% determines that a club is actually reducing or raising the overall costs, to be honest.
It doesn't but making a signing with huge wages on the same day as you go crying about how fecked you are financially is not the wisest of moves.
The signing was made since December last season. It was an open secret.
To be fair while it doesn't look good signing Alaba on a free isn't bad business (even if he costs huge wages).
Paying Alaba 100M or so over five years is hardly good bussiness. He's been in slow decline for last 2-3 seasons plus people forget Alaba became a BuLi regular when he was only 18 so its only natural he's declining now.
He is such an arrogant twat, shitting on fans, other clubs, leagues, organizations.
Bayern robbing yet another club 
He legit thinks football owes Real Madrid and they should be allowed to spend what they like even if they can't afford it.
The concept of being skint and so not spending as much money seems totally alien to him.

Unfortunately thing is not this black and white.
CL the way it is would lead to a dead end eventually. There are differences between leagues. Some leagues attract more talents, more popular. There is a reason, UEFA keeps giving more CL spots to stronger leagues. A champions of manny smaller leagues are weaker than the 4th placed from stronger leagues. And it now it looks like UEFA deems that the gap in quality is bigger with 6 CL places for strong leagues! (It used to be top 4, nowadays top 6 cliche to reflect that popular belief)
So if UEFA keeps expanding the CL spots for the big leagues, eventually the CL would also have too many games, which force national leagues to work around. The issue with CL coefficient system remains. The champions of smaller leagues get in pot 1 and pot 2 means stronger teams get drawn into same group earlier. These stronger teams eliminate each other earlier, would limit the amount of viewer attracting teams, reducing the whole competition ability to generate money.
There is a limit to which CL can expand. Imagine CL gives big leagues 8 spots when they next revise their format That's almost half the league plays in CL, and there is Europa League spots! CL then again would have more games, but still have same issue with coefficient point system, and early elimination of strong teams. Eventually CL would mean a big competition full of teams from strong leagues, yet these teams most of the time, don't play enough games. Thus ESL idea of using a league phase before the KO round may be immature, but without foresight.
what do you mean?Bayern robbing yet another club
Amazing how diverse the super League motivations are. Perez openly saying they need the league to sign mbappe and to keep pace with wage inflation (which is supply and demand). If Madrid and barce go bust, psg and city won't be to blame, you still have to manage the club well. He says it's impossible to sign haaland or mbappe... but you just have to get talent and actually give it a chance like United have.
We can't afford to sign the worlds best players so let's make a new league to support us doing that
what a joke. Madrid deserve to struggle for the next 10 years and run themselves like a proper football team, they'll always have their reputation to fall back on.

It is especially weird considering the fact that Madrid and Barcelona did this to themselves when they demanded a share of the La Liga TV revenue that basically strangles 90% of the league and makes it boring as feck. Now they look at the Premier League with some sense of jealousy as if they have just been unlucky.
You have to admire his frankness. Plz, we need ESL, otherwise no Mbappe and Haaland for us, which means the death of football as we know it
Stealing our club
The best part was when he said something about the other 14clubs taking the money (referring to the EPL clubs) I mean how dare the other teams take money, and try to be competitive and qualify for the Champions League.You have to admire his frankness. Plz, we need ESL, otherwise no Mbappe and Haaland for us, which means the death of football as we know it
We need this mother fecker to burn in hell
I endorse his messageYou have to admire his frankness. Plz, we need ESL, otherwise no Mbappe and Haaland for us, which means the death of football as we know it
What? is this post some kind of scolding to the beloved leader? Savior of football, giver of European cups and scourge of monopoly?Stealing our club
Bayern, a club without a single penny of debt wants to extend Alabas contract.
Alaba/his agent demands crazy wages.
Bayern says "we cannot pay this much".
Real, a club with millions in debt: "no problem, here are the monnies"
Spot the mistake
If he signs mbappé and haaland i'll agree to everything he says
and Camavinga too, it's time to demandIf he signs mbappé and haaland i'll agree to everything he says
This is what he said " It isn't fair that in England six are losing and 14 winning, that big clubs in Spain are losing money and the small clubs are earning money"
It's really ridiculous.We can't afford to sign the worlds best players so let's make a new league to support us doing that
what a joke. Madrid deserve to struggle for the next 10 years and run themselves like a proper football team, they'll always have their reputation to fall back on.
And at least judging by social media (i know, i know), most Real fans seem to support him and his ideas....
I'm not a doctor and can't make a diagnosis, but he doesn't seem all there, does he. There is something wrong with his mind.
After purchasing Hazard for a fortune, he tries to sell us that.is he looking for pity?
completely detached from reality.
He makes Beckenbauer sound sane in comparison
I would take almost as much pleasure from Real and Barca disappearing as I would from Livepool
Weird that they sign a declining Alaba on such high wages. He is a great allrounder. He is a good CB, but not top tier. He is a good LB, but imo not as good offensively like he used to be in combination with Ribery.
People justify it with no transfer fee. But they will give Alaba a lot of cash directly on top of the wages and you can be sure that the agent fee for Zahavi is huge.
It was rumoured that Zahavi demanded 20m agent fees. Insane.

There is no mistake in that scenario having debt doesn't mean that you are not solvent and it also doesn't mean that you don't cash to invest. It doesn't even mean that Bayern have more liquidities available than Real Madrid, maybe they do but your scenario doesn't show that.
No but seriously. Unlike many I have no issue with Real Madrid but it's problematic when people like him and millions of fans repeat that BS, if you can purchase Hazard than you can afford Mbappé from Monaco or Haaland from Salzburg. Now the key point that people should keep in mind is that from the moment Haaland and Mbappé are in wealthy clubs you can't afford them unless their clubs decide otherwise, that's true whether these players are valued at 25m or 2bn.
Perez is an old senile broken stairlift
