Ok, how about this. Let's see if Pep, being a Barca legend, criticizes Barca's participation in SL?
The fact they have been scheming in the shadows and not even the managers were informed speaks volumes.
What is their job defined as under football?
There will be a joint statement from the captains through Jordan Henderson in the coming days. A meeting between the club captains have been called. You can expect the statement to be completely in support of the league and the spirit of competition.
You can't. That's a violation of employment terms. Leave the players and managers out of this. Good or bad, this is on owners 100%
Is it though? Look at Pep's recent comments - not directly undermining the ownership of his club, merely expressing his opinion on what constitutes the spirit of sport in an indirect way, Klopp too to a milder extent. I'd be disappointed if Ole simply towed the Glazer line and bottled it with a Tuchel-esque "I trust the club to do the right thing" or Zidane's cop out of "dunno ask the owners innit".
Glad that some are angry. It is probably Rashford and Bruno I would guess.
Could is not the same as would though. Whole teams of players are not fungible commodities. Their talents are unique and their training isn't something money can solve without time.
I hope the players will protest, don't get my wrong, but protests after the ESL is formed is too late. The protests must come now.
Maguire.
Fair play to Maguire!
I don't know if it is this one or another report saying Ole and the team only knew about this about 30 min before the kick-off.
Yeah that's the reported story.
It’s fecking appalling. No words for how scummy this is, the absolute cretins.
I dont know how we can guess as to which players are most p1553d by this and who wants the $$$s. It does not just correlate directly to their football ability or seniority in the squad.
An argument straight out of the Salem-witchtrials
Go on Ole, challenge your employers, then the Caf will want you to stay in your job. Didn’t realise we were paying his salary.
Well, it is like a witch hunt at timesAn argument straight out of the Salem-witchtrials
I bet you this will certainly not be what the line of argument is in any joint statement
Regardless of whether he stays or goes, I hope he condemns it. We need to pile up the pressure on our feckwit owners. Ole starting would set the tone for players and fans alike.

Solskjaer is not Pep or Klopp he has absolutely no pedigree as a manager and this job is his employment. If Pep / Klopp go they have a host of options of club's to compete at. It would be an unwise decision for Ole to voice anything that puts a negative perspective on the owners.
Lmfao
But didn't speak out against the Glazers when he was the manager of the club
Exactly ... The same bunch of fans that have called him "idiot", "clueless", etc. all of a sudden are all about him being a club legend, understanding the United Way and doing the "right" thing - by committing professional suicide so that the same bunch who never gave him a chance feel good about themselves.

They was no need for him to speak against the Glazers just as I wouldn't expect Ole to either up until this. This is much bigger though. SAF would have spoken against this just like Pep already has. And I am in no mood to get into an Ole dispute with you right now. What is going on now is much more important.
Maybe wait until he's in a situation where he can speak up? What do you expect him to do, call his own press conference?
You think the players won't support the Premier Leauge and fairness of competition?
Sorry I might have misread, I meant to insinuate they will certainly not agree to back the ESL*
Yeah that's what I was getting at, maybe I worded myself poorly
