People are jus being emotional and not realistic ... This whole saga is about more money for clubs.. Every Elite club needs more money to stay competitive.. We are in an era where paying 70 to 100m is now seen as normal with weekly salaries of over 150k the new normal. Barca is hugely in debt and cannot even buy new players and cannot continue to pay hefty wages. In the Premier league it is Man City, United, Chelsea, Liverpool and Others becos of the investments dey have made. In Spain it is Madrid and Barca, and it is the same all round. The heavy spenders are the ones at the top of the table. If U cannot guarantee them improved revenue they will get it elsewhere

OhiOfIhima:
You have no idea of what they make in Champion league, Europa league, UEFA championship, UEFA National League and the women version, still they pay this clubs peanut in d end... That's pure fraud.

Check this out!

I said this is a money war...

UEFA and FIFA didn't invest such and have same energy when it comes to racism.

But they see they are about to be bleeped with the creation of ESL, they will lose lot of money, won't be interesting and then die down.

UEFA created nations league and still planning another format that will start in 2024. They are acting like they care, but it's all down to the pocket of each body.

Amaechi2023:
why would arsenalbe in any super competition in the first place?

Nickisindigo:
Lol what's the difference between premier league itself and the newly created super league

Great100000:
This is getting more interesting now.

Neymar go win Champions League Tire

PS712:

What makes you think the ESL clubs if allowed to run the league won't still be indebted?

Great100000:
This is getting more interesting now.

Neymar go win Champions League Tire

Granger:
Chads president has died

Benz4pimp:
most people do not know why it is being created...the pandemic as hit hard on the top football clubs,no fans in the stadium,tv rights have gone down,having another tournament means more money to the clubs

onyeogalu1:



No they won't.
Each team will get #500m euros.

For instance, as at January 2021, FC Barcelona was in debt to the tune of over €1.2B which included money owed for De jong, Coutinho and Arthur. The €500M you cited above that each of the ESL clubs will get can only half that debt, not baring other factors that will arise as a result of the formation of the ESL. For now all the big clubs seem to look at is projection of what they could get, ignoring the criticism that greeted its formation. UEFA, ECA and FAs are voicing against it, and if this is so then these agencies some of which are partly government will sabotage the financial targets of the newly formed ESL. Isn't it funny how the big clubs are considering gains they stand to gain with likes of C. Ronaldo in the super league yet no club from Portugal made the list (except if one makes the remaining 3 or so slots). So Portugal's FA will sit and watch while it's relegated to the background?
Therefore, this same way the ESL announced their independence, another league can decide to announce some new rules which will hinder or slow player movement to ESL clubs and this example will be reference. In fact, the FAs can decide to conspire to hike fees for players going to the ESL leagues, how will the ESL mitigate that? This business model the big clubs in Europe are working with is what is plunging lots of them into debt, and their ability to find ways around their laid down rules is what has led to their predicament.
If they want to go out of debt, they should reconsider their business models.

onyeogalu1:



Some of them like Barca will still have their debt on cleared but the fund is a life saver compared to what they will get from Laliga And UCL.

onyeogalu1:



At this stage ESL have thrown one card let Uefa respond but honestly the threat from Uefa is not the solution. These clubs are dieing, their funding is a big issue and they are the ones that pay these players.

lexy2014:


How do u no that they still won't be indebted even after they get 500m euros?

onyeogalu1:



Not all of them are debt. However what they stand to make from this tournament is far higher that what Uefa/local leagues offer

lexy2014:


Which clubs are dying?

onyeogalu1:





Check Barca debt and their wage bill.
As a business is it sustainable?
Infact all the clubs have the income affected by the pandemic yet most players refuse to take pay cut

lexy2014:


U still haven't answered d question:
How do u no that they still won't be indebted even after they get 500m euros?

So if this propose supper league discussion had not held this won't happen. This life ehhn.

Verdict..... UEFA should not ban clubs involved in the propose super league. It should be seen as blessings in disguise

Walkee:
that's just a hallucination of some clowns on Twitter. You think billionaires do things without carefully thinking it through?
At first it was Barcelona fans blaming Perez until Perez revealed yesterday that he didn't even have to convince Barca president considering their difficulties. Then he no players will be banned and nobody is pulling out of anything that they've already signed everything. What you need to know now is that the British media are now trying to start a propaganda war /psychological operations to try and manipulate an outcome. Nothing is happening. In fact, Abramovich is in a yacht somewhere with 15 models drinking champagne and anticipating 3.5bn alert. You think billionaires cares about the emotional tantrums of clowns on Twitter?
