Premier League Clubs Should Rule Europe For The Next Coming Decade. by pazienza(m): 1:12am On Jun 07, 2015 |
As an Arsenal and premier league fan, I can't help noticing that the last three champions league have been won by Bayern, Madrid, and Barca in that order, Three of the richest football clubs in the modern football. Madrid and Barca courtesy of their financial muscle keep poaching the premier league year after year for best talents, while premier league must make do with second tier talents from la liga. Ronaldo,Henry Modric, Bale and now Suarez, premier league clubs have failed to hold unto their best talents when it mattered most, Barca and Madrid can poach them, but no top premier club gets to poach Madrid and Barca stars, we only get those they deem surplus to requirements eg Sanchez, Ozil and Dimaria. Bayern have the monopoly of the German talent market and they have the financial muscle to hold unto their stars and prevent Madrid and Barca from poaching them, this is why they have been able to challenge Madrid and Barca favourably in Europe. The premier league New TV deal is going to change the climate of club football in Europe for atleast a decade. Barca and Madrid Will lose their financial advantage, and won't be able to poach premier league stars again! But might now even start losing their own stars to premier league clubs. It is a mouth watering prospect. We will see how they will cope. |

Imagine an Era, where premier league clubs will be able to keep premier league best players away from Barca and Madrid, while poaching La liga every season to buy their Pichichi winners and best players away from Madrid and Barca! Imagine the change that is about to come. |

On Tuesday, the English Premier League
announced that Sky Sports and BT Sport
would retain the league’s domestic
television rights
at a staggering cost: About $7.9 billion
over three years starting in the 2016-17
season, a 70 percent increase over what
they’re currently paying. And when
international rights are factored in, the
league is expected take in about $13
billion over the course of the deal, or
around $4.3 billion per year.
For comparison’s sake, the NFL earns
about $3 billion per year from its
television deal, while the NBA will take in
about $2.66 billion per year when its new
television deal begins in the 2016-17
season.
EPL teams, obviously, are thrilled. As the
Guardian reports, even the league’s last-
place team will receive around $152
million annually, while the champion
should rake in about $240 million. And
with more television money comes higher
salaries for players. “Previous increases
in TV rights income have tended to lead
to a commensurate increase in wages,”
the Guardian’s Owen Gibson writes.
That last point has other European soccer
leagues worried that the world’s top stars
will flock to England, leaving everyone
else behind. Here’s Bernard Caiazzo, co-
president of French club Saint-Etienne, in
the Guardian :
The Premier League will become the
NBA of football. It will be greater
than the Champions League. Clubs
such as Manchester United or
Chelsea will have budgets of €700
or €800m,” he was quoted as saying
in the French media. “What is
happening in England will impact on
Germany, Italy, Spain. And I do not
imagine that Uefa will not react. But
there will be a greater attention if the
request comes from Bayern [Munich]
, Real [Madrid] , Barcelona or Milan
instead of St Etienne.
Caiazzo called on UEFA, European
soccer’s governing body, “to take action
to stop the Premier League” from
amassing so much power, the Guardian
writes.
Christian Seifert, CEO of the German
Football League (DFL), echoed Caiazzo’s
sentiments, calling the EPL’s future
windfall “a challenge for our league, for
the DFL and for the clubs, which we have
to confront,” he told Bild .
Javier Tebas, president of La Liga in
Spain, also voiced his concern that the
EPL will gobble up the world’s soccer
royalty.
“We have a serious problem. We won’t be
the best league in a year,” Tebas said, per
the BBC . “We’re going to lose a lot of
value in the market because the Premier
League is going to snap up all of the
global TV competition and contracts.”
La Liga is the only top European league in
which individual clubs negotiate their own
television contracts, which creates an
imbalance between the top clubs — Real
Madrid is the world’s richest club, while
Barcelona ranks fourth — and the rest
because the powerhouses generate far
more television revenue (10 times more
than the least-valuable club, the Daily
Mail reports ). This week, Espanyol
President Joan Collet said the league’s
teams are willing to strike unless the
Spanish government passes a law
requiring the league to negotiate its
television rights as a whole, splitting the
revenue equally.

Many analysts in europe are already worried. They call it the "NBA-ification" of europe by england where all the best players in the world run to england. English clubs have suffered too much from the likes of barcelona and real madrid poaching their best players and making the clubs uncompetitive. I can't wait to see english clubs giving barcelona and real madrid a real spanking every season. |

WILL ENGLAND DOMINATE EUROPE? http://i.imgur.com/pOavcIN.jpg From 2016, each PL clubwill have more than 120m euros in tv rights. Enough to dominate the champions league, inabalance european football and the transfer market? At the moment, there are only the numbers that make you dizzy. From the 2016/2017 season, the 20 English clubs will share 2.3 Billion euros in tv rights for 3 years, on which will be added 900m euros per year in international rights. That is a 70% increase of the current contract. For a few million euros (at this point, whose counting?), the 20th of the Premier league will touch in tv rights the entire budget of the 3rd or 4th in Ligue1. A the end of the 2016/2017 season, PSG, if they are champions, will have 45m euros under the current contract LFP acquiered with Canal+ and BeIn Sports. The English champion will win 210 m euros, almost 5 times more. There are already 8 English clubs amongst the 20 richest in the world. In 2017 there is little doubt that they will be atleast half of the top 20. Only Real Madrid, Barclona, and Bayern Munich seem capable of resisting, for now. BLACKBURN, ONLY "INTRUDER" SINCE 1992 Bayern is a big power thanks to merchandising: in 2013/2014 the tv rights of the German club (36.9 million euros) were more less than half that of the last placed PL club (79 million). Real and Barca can keep up, despite their debts, because they refuse to share tv rights in La liga and concentrate 70-80% of the tv money of the league. With 130-150 million euros a year, they receive "English" sums. While tv money are not the only source of economic power (9 PL clubs are owned by foreign investors), Englad is, amongst the 5 major leagues, the one who share the most equitably its wealth. The big question, obviously, is on what will be the sporting consequences of this contract. Inside, its impact on the suspense in the Premier league, and the impossibility on having a surprise, seem almost zero: It is etched in stone and for a long time. Since the the creation of the PL in 1992, only Blackburn (1995) was able to stop the absolute hedgemony of the big 4 (Manchester United, Arsenal, Chelsea, Manchester City). Not everyone has the chance to follow Ligue1, with its 9 champions in 20 years. In the outside, the risk that England dominates Europe is very strengthened, even if this doesnt seem likely in the short term. Since 1992, England (4 wins) has won ess champions leagues than Spain (7) and Italy (5). Actually, English clubs are already very rich and they haven't always well spent their money: last season, Liverpool reveived 122m euros of tv rights, against 48m to Marseille, and that didnt prevent the Merseyside club to be wasteful in its recruitment. But the gap in resources should mechanically create a gulf in the long term. The contract of the century deregulate the transfer market, in the league where salaries are the highest, and where the market for English players is completely crazy, a particular trait that makes it less threatening to the rest of Europe, however. Most of the best players play in England, but not all of them: there are some remaining, and not the least, at Bayern, Real, and Barcelona. The 2 best, Ronaldo and Messi, are in La Liga. The earthquake will happen if they both came to England. SHARE THE WEALTH, BUNCH OF PIGS During the first day of the Premier League in 1992, there were 11 non British players on the fields of the PL. From the season 2004/2005, they were 45%, a percentage that has only slightly fluctuated, and that also touches coaches. The impact of this trend on the national team is a purely internal debate, but also a little poluted. Because England is living on the memories of its 1966 World Cup won at home, whereas it wasnt more competitive when its clubs dominated Europe with mainly English players in the 1980's. Today, it only has another excuse. This influx of money makes England a paradise for players and agents. But others pay the cost of this paradise, by their subscriptions to SKY and BT Sport, or their tickets to stadiums. Since the announcement of this contract, the debate has begun on the usage of this money for the profit of fans. Saturday, at the kick off of Crystal Palace- Liverpool, the ultras of Selhurst Park, the only ones in the country, showed a banner "5 billion pounds, but fans are still exploited. Share the wealth, bunch of pigs." Others were more polite. The former Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher requested 20 pound seats for away fans. Gary Lineker suggested to "reduce prices to allow real fans to go to games" . But the movement seems irreversible: In their stadiums, PL clubs prefer having 70% of tourists, often times Asians who pay a lot, than 90% real fans who spend less. While this wealth may accentuate the trend of certain clubs hounding players (Chelsea loaned 27 players this season, who are forbidden to play against them!), the fundamental gulf, the true "NBA-ization" of English football will touch its marketing. The PL already dominateds the world and will expand this domination, particularly on the asian market. It will from now be visible from Friday to Monday. Its the return of the Empire on which the sun never sets. VINCENT DULUC |

Man Utd had financial power yet still lost Beckham Ronaldo, and Nistelrooy to Madrid The only thing it would bring is more silly transfers for exorbitant fees. Andy Carrol would now go for 80m, Lamela would be bought for 100m, Cuadrado would go for 80m EPL top 4 clubs have spent more money than most other clubs in recent times and still suck badly 2 Likes |

raumdeuter:Manunited does not have the spending power of real madrid. Yes, they are probably as rich but they don't spend as much due to various exigencies. With the new deals coming in England in the coming years, EPL clubs would be so wealthy that they would virtually blow everybody else out of the water. I don't think a ronaldo will want to go to real madrid to earn €350,000 a week when he can earn €550,000 at manunited. |
