The Super League is back with a court ruling stating that UEFA and FIFA are powerless to stop it. Mark Goldbridge predicts the end of football as we know it if it's allowed to happen. Get your comments in below.
It will be interesting to see how they can hold on to the good players if they don’t join the league. Super league teams will make more money, will buy the best players and will have bigger squads. If super league becomes successful then teams would either have to join them or become irrelevant.
@@jzon0 European competition is important, but at the end of the day, it's about the local competition first. Especially for fans, who don't have the means to travel abroad every week.
Very good point about why Man U and Liverpool owners have changed their stance over the last year - obviously saw the way the wind was blowing. As usual all about money not the fans.
@@Tom-tu9jd but if all the big teams go to esl , slowly UCL will not be that profitable so United will join esl just for financial reason, maybe not now but definitely in near future
UEFA are making this happen. As soon as super league was shut down they started to talking about the possibility of matches played in the US and Saudi ect. Theyre all absolutely disgusting
Exactly! Also, mark talking about the death of the 1968 European cup is insane. Back then you actually had to win your league to qualify. There are far more teams now and far more games. How is the super league any different to the current UCL? 15 games to win it now aswel! Why? Money… UEFA and FIFA have caused all of this.
The premier league started all this. Before they let investors come into the game, there was possibility for smaller teams in countries like Portugal or the Netherlands to win the Champions League. Now they don’t have the slightest chance because all their players are immediately sold to English Spanish or German clubs. And it is an hypocrisy to criticize the Super League and complain about the death of the PL if you don’t recognize that the PL was the main cause of the demise of the essence of football. You can’t just cherry pick where investment is good or bad. It can’t just be bad if it puts in jeopardy the PL. it is also bad if it doesn’t allow every club to be a real contender for any competition
Exactly, imagine being a fan in the Bundesliga where you know that one of the newly promoted teams in the Prem can potentially buy one of your best players.
Isn't that more related to Globalisation than anything else? Before the 1990's, most of the best ever players from the first division were either English, Scottish or Irish
@@thecrimsonlip53if you see this eufa and fifa fault this some. Reason why super league creating but all you care about is your league the prem taking all players because you guys have oil money other clubs and leagues can’t that why Barca and Madrid struggling because because our league president and you guys are afraid of us taking you good players now should be even now we have competition the format I mean I think good idea for this format uefa format is more and more games and they don’t care about there players getting injured

The champions league is turning into a clown show from next year anyway with the winning team needing to pay 15 matches to do so. And accusing someone else of greed and corruption when you have UEFA/FIFA currently in charge is rather amusing. All about money and has been for years. We crow about the PL being the best and most popular league in the world so hardly surprising it plans to go even more global.
Don't act like the PL is so clean either. Clubs like Chelsea, City, Newcastle and even less successful clubs like Villa, Everton and Wolves all received substantial money injections. Take away that money and the league quality would drop off massively.
@@adolfstalin5974 Don't forget Everton got point reduction for a fault that is not proven meanwhile City having 100+ charges got sympathy and support as a result they remain "clean" so PL is not that great as people think rich club get the cake poor club get point deduction

The new champs league format is nowhere near what the super league would be. It's just essentially a big group then goes to knockout same as before but the mid table sides go into a playoff to qualify for knockout. There's 2 extra games it's not going to destroy the premier league you tit
Except in the new UCL there is no defined hierarchy, anyone can qualify, no special treatment, financial fair play is enforced, home fans/local fans can watch home games. Can you see the big differences?

Uefa condemned this concept so much back in 2021 but their new champions league format will be quite similair and now if the super league would accepted I think the clubs would earn more money and the state owned clubs would have less advantage over everyone.
@@Joewillcollegebowlbut u know no matter what UEFA won’t change they decide by themselves which is why clubs don’t like them because nothing is agreed on with the clubs participating. They make stuff that benefit themselves
Interesting as usual, Mark. You say NFL, Mark, but this is probably most similar to what is happening in American college football. Id encourage you to take a peek at the last decade or 2 in that sport.
Mate it’s all sport these days unfortunately. Cricket and the IPL. NFL like you said. NBA playing offseason games in Dubai. That’s just capitalism and the reality of the world we’re currently in I’m afraid. Sickening stuff.
This is quite shocking. I can only pray that clubs in England, and hopefully elsewhere, have taken on board that the fans have no interest whatsoever in a Super League. If it does happen then I think many of us will opt to support clubs in the Championship and below and attendances in the Super League will collapse to Saudi levels.
The Super League is a league for Spain and Italy. Because they are a failing league. The EPL is absolutely at a disadvantage. Because it is the most popular and competitive league. As a result, a Supe
@@user-xh8tw9su8f for a failing league we sure own the premier league in europe also only reason premier is relevant is due to billionaire investors and oil money take that out what becomes of the premier.
Liverpool created a Supporters Board after the original ESL launch in 2021, meaning the fans on this board have the final say on whether Liverpool could join a new competition and I’m pretty sure we don’t want anything to do with this.
We don't even know if English clubs will be invited yet! Actually if the ESL organisers have gotten any smarter they should focus only on continental Europe clubs and possibly Scotland, English clubs have all the reasons to stay away from such a project.
This is why i’ve gradually been gearing myself to watch South American football. I already have the team as I am a Millonarios fan due to my city, but there is so much more passion and tradition which hasn’t been erased. European ball has me sick
I've been going more with rugby. It's a better game, the players are more respectful, you get proper tackles, the 'VAR' system actually works and money hasn't ruined the entire sport.
What a surprise! English football club sides with an organisation that has set up its competitions to benefit English teams and even introduced new modes of qualifying for them.
Cant help but think had UEFA not created a horrible uncompetitive, zero jeopardy mid-week parade….then this would never have surfaced. UEFA could have done so much more with European Competitions
People are so brainwashed by uefa it unbelievable 😂 they created super league when they kept changing it from champions only to top 4 now to top 5 now now you get in if you been competition before 😂😂😂
I love how goldbridge has gone from a comedy reactions channel to one of the loudest, clearest and most eloquent voices standing up for (what’s left) of the game we all love.
what is left? UAFE you mean? PL clubs having a unfair competitive advantage over other leagues, all the corruption from FIFA? Guys, do you really fail to realise that UAFE has monopoly over football, whilst also being the most corrupt sporting organisation in the world. My god...
3:34 " this is globalisation of football - which is good, but it benefits nobody... " . Complete contradictory nonsense and, Yes, you really did say that!
I'm a Korean who lives in US who adores football, and we genuinely do not need another competition, especially when players are overwhelmed with number of matches anyway. One or two preseason matches are great fan service, but this is just degrading the quality of the domestic league and champions league.
So teams like aston villa, leverkusen, girona, etc won't be able to play top tier european competition because these teams weren't even in super league 2nd tier level till last year so promotion would not help
Why would fans be against an extra game most weeks? Sound like a good thing to me. But then I don't pretend to know what most fans think - and neither should you!!
PL fans can't really complaining about this. They spend the most amount of money, compare to any other leagues combined. So maybe they think it's fair for them to finally compete financially with PL. Also it's wake up call to those corrupt UEFA/FIFA/FA and be humbled. If PL let's say has fallen off popularity, it's their own fault for "the best league itw" being run with "the worst and most corrupt official itw".
I don't mind it, monopolies are bad. UEFA and FIFA are corrupt organisations that mostly benefit a small group of old rich guys, and not the clubs. Given the right format a new league could be a good thing.
UEFA needs to be humbled. Plus what would be the difference anyway. Just a change of name. Since "champions league" is having the same format next season
I agree mark saying naive football wasn’t going to be this. But what they’re proposing. Doesn’t sound like progress. It sounds like regress. As a Tottenham fan I hope we never take part in this.
Absolute greed of the highest order. Quite ironic that there speaking about this again when the English Premiership is having one of the best, competitive championship races ever.
So now that the prem isn't get the most "attention" it's wrong.I absolutely love this it means the prem can't just spend money on money to buy the best players and dominate europe.The only people that do not want this is the prem fans I think deap down the rest of europe are happy with this
The Glazers are American they'll want a lot of Man United games to be played in the big U.S. city markets like L.A., NYC, Dallas, Chicago, etc...They can sell tickets for double the cost in the U.S & Canada compared the lower UK prices which are regulated by the EFL.
The only reason Madrid, Barca, and Juve want this is due to their inability to run a proper football club. If they were somewhat competent, they wouldn't be in such financial distress.
What do people expect Arsenal Liverpool Man U all did the same thing to create the Premier and make more money. Now it's the best league in the world. Super leagues just the same thing but on a bigger scale.
Literally the only thing the ruling said was that the UEFA mafia can't throw clubs out of the Champions League or fine them for expressing the clubs own legal right to explore other competitions. It is an issue of entrepreneurship freedom, not greed. How Mark thinks UEFA and FIFA having total monopoly control over football clubs could be beneficial is beyond comprehension.
Football's history and UEFA's pockets are two entirely different things. Right now UEFA are pocketing income from club competitions they didn't even create in the first place! How is that "history" to you?
Be honest. There are so many games in the top leagues that nobody wants to watch. Even in the Premier League, there are matches that hardly attract any spectators. As a German viewer, I would hardly be interested in games like Crystal Palace v Brighton or Fulham v Burnley. In addition, FIFA is finally losing more power as a result of the ruling. A World Cup in Qatar because of the many deaths there was a scandal. Another World Cup should go to Saudi Arabia again. What coincidences there are.
Don’t know why people are against this💀. It’s 💯 better than the new ucl format. Mark is just ranting cuz the glazers won’t leave. And him talking about money and change like he ain’t seen the new ucl format and it isn’t all about money.
With all the honesty, I think that we are in need of somthing to disrupt the field. Not sure if Super League is the best option, but I'm getting so tired of FA and UEFA being not transparent at all and arguebly corrupt. Maybe the pressure from another league could help make current leagues better (or it will ruin everything)...
This will actually be good. Cus local fans will start supporting non superleague teams and foreign fans will get superleague matches in their home city.
This could be great for lower level teams, when it collapses and becomes a tourism industry the rest of the English teams will flourish because fans will actually start supporting their local again. If your team signs up for this you should stop supporting them, its anti football and anti fans so they don't deserve any
@@Kazumatempest they've proposed 3 leagues with promotion in and out of the different leagues but not the tournament itself, I doubt anyone below championship would qualify, therefore this could be good for small local teams. But the Premier league has come forward and said no club would consider joining
Hold on Mark, you have been a VERY public voice against UEFA and FIFA and the way they have run players into the ground and how they have greed and corruption influencing every decision they make. Sure, there is greed in the creation of the Super League but you'll find that in ANY commercial industry. WHAT'S GOOD HERE is that there will be less but higher quality games, there will be self-governance by the clubs, there will be greater profit distribution, AND it will be more entertaining! This ALSO gives some HISTORIC clubs who have suffered at the hands of UEFA a chance to once again grow into prominence. I'm surprised you have such a negative reaction to this.
All football fans around the world MUST stand up and boycott such mega-money filthy scheme created by rich Companies such as JP Morgan-Chase and individuals like Florentino Perez!
Hypocrites Prem as always.. SCARDY cats..Money is the only way they could Compete with LALIGA and Serie A so they are scared to see all leagues in line financially.. The CWC and the new Champions leagues are here to stay whether you like it or not, other TRUE authentic football leagues will become financially equipped and you'd be 3rd AGAIN! 😂
super league would work upon two circumstances: 1. the participating teams do not only play super league, all other competitions continue as normal 2. it will not be the same teams every single season/year
Don't know enough about how this will look yet tbh but will it not just be a market place in terms of clubs choosing which competitions to enter so it'll be Super League vs Champions League? Either way I've always thought the CL should only be for Champions in a mini league format so they could potentially co-exist I guess. However the domestic leagues will undoutedly suffer as there's going to be too much football without the giant squads you mention.
@@seanstrangeway457Explain to me how a team will play in say Korea on the Wed and be back to play in England on the Sat/Sun? I am not being facetious I just don’t understand how it would work.
You,re dumb bro if you read it and that,s ur conclusion.look at the format,if ur in the star league,you don't need to worry about top 4once you see you can't win the league as it,s useless to you and hence you can play weaker teams there and simply focus on the cup.
The problem with the CL is too many of the same teams appearing too often, not the opposite. The more the same clubs appear the more boring the offering becomes. Level up the qualifying process it is already too weighted towards the big clubs.
Football is already dead with teams like Chelsea and man city spending ridiculous money. Current football is not even about the fans and is only about the money so I don’t see the difference
As a Newcastle fan totally against it. Hopefully all Premier Clubs will now stand against it, including our owners as well as the Liverpool and Man U owners, as they have already seen the fans reaction🤞
The German clubs are likely not to join as they are 51% owned by the fans
This was also confirmed by Karl Heinz Rummenigge. They were also not part of the first try because of 50+1.
Why would the fans want German clubs to play Champions League alone? 😂😂
It will be interesting to see how they can hold on to the good players if they don’t join the league. Super league teams will make more money, will buy the best players and will have bigger squads. If super league becomes successful then teams would either have to join them or become irrelevant.

Interesting as usual, Mark. You say NFL, Mark, but this is probably most similar to what is happening in American college football. Id encourage you to take a peek at the last decade or 2 in that sport.
Super LEAGUE 🏆
@@Asdf12219bring your third world energy elsewhere
Mate it’s all sport these days unfortunately. Cricket and the IPL. NFL like you said. NBA playing offseason games in Dubai. That’s just capitalism and the reality of the world we’re currently in I’m afraid. Sickening stuff.
Bro stop miss informing people like your league is so pure don't forget you are owned by middle eastern and usa
Let's be real, this was bound to happen, nothing stays the same forever, everything changes. Change is constant.
Such wisdom.
Yep think this natural end to my following of football your right everything changes. I wonder how long until a new sport takes over football domance
Absolutely..They are scared to lose their financial advantage 😂😂
Change is inevitable but some institutions are preserved in history.
@@Dante--Xscary how even with the PL money they still struggle massively in Europe (bar city). Those PL teams will be dead when the SL happens 😭.
The main reason there's such resistance from Britian is that the big money now are in Premiership and they don't want to share
This is quite shocking. I can only pray that clubs in England, and hopefully elsewhere, have taken on board that the fans have no interest whatsoever in a Super League.
If it does happen then I think many of us will opt to support clubs in the Championship and below and attendances in the Super League will collapse to Saudi levels.
The Super League is a league for Spain and Italy. Because they are a failing league. The EPL is absolutely at a disadvantage. Because it is the most popular and competitive league. As a result, a Supe
But the new format is pretty good. More competitive than the proposed new UCL format
@@user-xh8tw9su8f for a failing league we sure own the premier league in europe also only reason premier is relevant is due to billionaire investors and oil money take that out what becomes of the premier.
Glazers are in there for sure! this is crap.

Football needs to evolve, they are right, UEFA and FIFA have a monopoly, competition is good, grow up mark
Liverpool created a Supporters Board after the original ESL launch in 2021, meaning the fans on this board have the final say on whether Liverpool could join a new competition and I’m pretty sure we don’t want anything to do with this.
Money changes everything.
A few fans on a supporters board can easily be bought out.
We don't even know if English clubs will be invited yet! Actually if the ESL organisers have gotten any smarter they should focus only on continental Europe clubs and possibly Scotland, English clubs have all the reasons to stay away from such a project.
We? I assume by we YOU are on this board🤔
We don't

This is why i’ve gradually been gearing myself to watch South American football. I already have the team as I am a Millonarios fan due to my city, but there is so much more passion and tradition which hasn’t been erased. European ball has me sick
I've been going more with rugby. It's a better game, the players are more respectful, you get proper tackles, the 'VAR' system actually works and money hasn't ruined the entire sport.
Uefa also doing the same thing
So All are kind of same
I can't decide now how to react, probably go with the natural outcome or flow now..😒
United just issued a statement saying they’re still committed to UEFA!
What a surprise! English football club sides with an organisation that has set up its competitions to benefit English teams and even introduced new modes of qualifying for them.
People will get bored eventually. Why would i want to see top clubs making matches between each other in every week.
Yep I’m probably gonna go over to USA to watch messi play for inter Miami
Cant help but think had UEFA not created a horrible uncompetitive, zero jeopardy mid-week parade….then this would never have surfaced.
UEFA could have done so much more with European Competitions
UEFA were bullied by the clubs since the 1990s. People like Berlusconi. Why do people forget this?
@@AffectedArea Then UEFA are useless and not needed. Why let them take their cut of the action for doing nothing?
What are you referencing?
Look how successful the NFL is
Super league basically pre season friendly games be awful quality
Absolutely agre with Mark! And Klopp regarding this
Wait what if klop is leaving football because of this
People are so brainwashed by uefa it unbelievable 😂 they created super league when they kept changing it from champions only to top 4 now to top 5 now now you get in if you been competition before 😂😂😂
You won’t get into the competition because you have played before. They changed that over a year ago due to backlash
Spot on! If this evolves it will cause absolute chaos! It's just pure greed.
I love how goldbridge has gone from a comedy reactions channel to one of the loudest, clearest and most eloquent voices standing up for (what’s left) of the game we all love.
what is left? UAFE you mean? PL clubs having a unfair competitive advantage over other leagues, all the corruption from FIFA? Guys, do you really fail to realise that UAFE has monopoly over football, whilst also being the most corrupt sporting organisation in the world. My god...
the guy that wants qatar as owners and your saying he is standing up for whats left of the game are you drunk or on drugs🤣
@@KazumatempestDude are you expecting logical reasoning from football fans??
3:34 " this is globalisation of football - which is good, but it benefits nobody... "
. Complete contradictory nonsense and, Yes, you really did say that!
When United globalized in the 80s-90s and out performed everyone because of making insane money, you weren’t complaining 😂
The guy is a plastic.
I'm a Korean who lives in US who adores football, and we genuinely do not need another competition, especially when players are overwhelmed with number of matches anyway. One or two preseason matches are great fan service, but this is just degrading the quality of the domestic league and champions league.
Well said Mark. Spot on as usual mate.
No he isn't because 92 killed all small clubs

Ik right it is just money lovin owners I guess
So teams like aston villa, leverkusen, girona, etc won't be able to play top tier european competition because these teams weren't even in super league 2nd tier level till last year so promotion would not help
Best comment on here. People are missing the point that this is yet again another form of elitism that isn't fair.
Why would fans be against an extra game most weeks? Sound like a good thing to me.
But then I don't pretend to know what most fans think - and neither should you!!
PL fans can't really complaining about this. They spend the most amount of money, compare to any other leagues combined. So maybe they think it's fair for them to finally compete financially with PL. Also it's wake up call to those corrupt UEFA/FIFA/FA and be humbled. If PL let's say has fallen off popularity, it's their own fault for "the best league itw" being run with "the worst and most corrupt official itw".
I don't mind it, monopolies are bad. UEFA and FIFA are corrupt organisations that mostly benefit a small group of old rich guys, and not the clubs. Given the right format a new league could be a good thing.
The premier league has itself to blame
For getting ahead of other leagues?The european super league is a cowardly league
If this happens ill find myself a championship side
Good ridance.
@@mebe4367Joker
It’s said “good riddance”, tool
Let’s see if u don’t do super league watchalongs….
UEFA needs to be humbled. Plus what would be the difference anyway. Just a change of name. Since "champions league" is having the same format next season
I agree mark saying naive football wasn’t going to be this. But what they’re proposing. Doesn’t sound like progress. It sounds like regress. As a Tottenham fan I hope we never take part in this.
Absolute greed of the highest order.
Quite ironic that there speaking about this again when the English Premiership is having one of the best, competitive championship races ever.
So now that the prem isn't get the most "attention" it's wrong.I absolutely love this it means the prem can't just spend money on money to buy the best players and dominate europe.The only people that do not want this is the prem fans I think deap down the rest of europe are happy with this

The Glazers are American they'll want a lot of Man United games to be played in the big U.S. city markets like L.A., NYC, Dallas, Chicago, etc...They can sell tickets for double the cost in the U.S & Canada compared the lower UK prices which are regulated by the EFL.
Well said mark
As a Barca fan, I'm excited. We are using the money to trigger Jude Bellingham's release clause 😊
Can’t believe the beautiful game is dying. Made by the poor stolen by the rich.
Stolen by the greedy. Players included.
Has been stolen by the rich since the 90's..
No Prem club’s support it, Bayern doesn’t support it, etc it’s not going to function
Change is always constant.
The only reason Madrid, Barca, and Juve want this is due to their inability to run a proper football club. If they were somewhat competent, they wouldn't be in such financial distress.
What do people expect Arsenal Liverpool Man U all did the same thing to create the Premier and make more money. Now it's the best league in the world. Super leagues just the same thing but on a bigger scale.
Mark the new champions league format next season is like for like the Super League.
Literally the only thing the ruling said was that the UEFA mafia can't throw clubs out of the Champions League or fine them for expressing the clubs own legal right to explore other competitions. It is an issue of entrepreneurship freedom, not greed. How Mark thinks UEFA and FIFA having total monopoly control over football clubs could be beneficial is beyond comprehension.
It’s Stockholm syndrome- they have abused football for long enough
Mark you are a wizard. You managed to say everything I’m thinking about with a more awesome accent and elite metaphors.
True..but ain’t that the same idea and argument when the premier league was proposed ?
This an absolute disaster. You are absolutely correct Mark, it's all about greed by these owners.
Well said Mark . Football has a rich history don’t kill it
Super LEAGUE 🏆
Football's history and UEFA's pockets are two entirely different things. Right now UEFA are pocketing income from club competitions they didn't even create in the first place! How is that "history" to you?
Football has a rich history so let's let UEFA keep on making tons of money instead of giving it to the clubs.
Be honest. There are so many games in the top leagues that nobody wants to watch. Even in the Premier League, there are matches that hardly attract any spectators. As a German viewer, I would hardly be interested in games like Crystal Palace v Brighton or Fulham v Burnley.
In addition, FIFA is finally losing more power as a result of the ruling. A World Cup in Qatar because of the many deaths there was a scandal. Another World Cup should go to Saudi Arabia again. What coincidences there are.
Florentino WINS.... FATALITY 🤣🤣🤣
The fact is UEFA and FIFA don't care about the fans the clubs and the players there all about controlling the clubs
Don’t know why people are against this💀. It’s 💯 better than the new ucl format. Mark is just ranting cuz the glazers won’t leave. And him talking about money and change like he ain’t seen the new ucl format and it isn’t all about money.
Don't know how any moron can actually be in favour of it.
so youre sad and more sad which brings joy
With all the honesty, I think that we are in need of somthing to disrupt the field. Not sure if Super League is the best option, but I'm getting so tired of FA and UEFA being not transparent at all and arguebly corrupt. Maybe the pressure from another league could help make current leagues better (or it will ruin everything)...
This will actually be good. Cus local fans will start supporting non superleague teams and foreign fans will get superleague matches in their home city.
@tanu.47 They won’t. There are less and less proper fans
As a Liverpool fan, I want Liverpool to stay in the Premier League. No interest in any "Super League"
This could be great for lower level teams, when it collapses and becomes a tourism industry the rest of the English teams will flourish because fans will actually start supporting their local again.
If your team signs up for this you should stop supporting them, its anti football and anti fans so they don't deserve any
That’s exactly what I think
that’s actually a very good point
you do know anyone can join the super league even small teams and they can get promoted.
@@Kazumatempest they've proposed 3 leagues with promotion in and out of the different leagues but not the tournament itself, I doubt anyone below championship would qualify, therefore this could be good for small local teams.
But the Premier league has come forward and said no club would consider joining
So many young fans only watch highlights on TH-cam and tiktok. And alot support players instead of clubs. Very sad
Hold on Mark, you have been a VERY public voice against UEFA and FIFA and the way they have run players into the ground and how they have greed and corruption influencing every decision they make. Sure, there is greed in the creation of the Super League but you'll find that in ANY commercial industry. WHAT'S GOOD HERE is that there will be less but higher quality games, there will be self-governance by the clubs, there will be greater profit distribution, AND it will be more entertaining! This ALSO gives some HISTORIC clubs who have suffered at the hands of UEFA a chance to once again grow into prominence. I'm surprised you have such a negative reaction to this.
Which historic clubs?
It dosent matter what country you call home, EVERYONE is against this "Superleague"
Ive just watched the model stucture video released by A22 and to be honest it sounds better than the new format of the CL in my opinion mark.
“The super league won’t work with premier league” bro it’s gonna work without y’all
carabao, fa, europa league, confrence cup are about to be killed by this, the domestic leagues and ucl will be lucky to still be competitive
All football fans around the world MUST stand up and boycott such mega-money filthy scheme created by rich Companies such as JP Morgan-Chase and individuals like Florentino Perez!
We can’t let this happen
its gonna happen no one cares about yall football is saved
It’s better than the new ucl format?
you cannot do anything
Hypocrites Prem as always.. SCARDY cats..Money is the only way they could Compete with LALIGA and Serie A so they are scared to see all leagues in line financially..
The CWC and the new Champions leagues are here to stay whether you like it or not, other TRUE authentic football leagues will become financially equipped and you'd be 3rd AGAIN! 😂
It’s funny how small hats fighting for money
super league would work upon two circumstances:
1. the participating teams do not only play super league, all other competitions continue as normal
2. it will not be the same teams every single season/year
Don't know enough about how this will look yet tbh but will it not just be a market place in terms of clubs choosing which competitions to enter so it'll be Super League vs Champions League? Either way I've always thought the CL should only be for Champions in a mini league format so they could potentially co-exist I guess. However the domestic leagues will undoutedly suffer as there's going to be too much football without the giant squads you mention.
Did you even read the super league format? The teams stay in their domestic leagues and gwt placement based on performance in those leagues.
@@seanstrangeway457Explain to me how a team will play in say Korea on the Wed and be back to play in England on the Sat/Sun? I am not being facetious I just don’t understand how it would work.
You,re dumb bro if you read it and that,s ur conclusion.look at the format,if ur in the star league,you don't need to worry about top 4once you see you can't win the league as it,s useless to you and hence you can play weaker teams there and simply focus on the cup.
@@iananderson2677 Explain to us where the ESL organisation advocated matches taking place in Korea or Canada?
They're over estimating korean and Canadian crowds for football.
Our sport is built on jeopardy. If you take away the jeopardy, you take away the identity. Might as well start calling it soccer.
Long live the super league
The problem with the CL is too many of the same teams appearing too often, not the opposite. The more the same clubs appear the more boring the offering becomes. Level up the qualifying process it is already too weighted towards the big clubs.
I do not really understand why many British do not understand the reasons behind the super league
Football is already dead with teams like Chelsea and man city spending ridiculous money. Current football is not even about the fans and is only about the money so I don’t see the difference
As a Newcastle fan totally against it. Hopefully all Premier Clubs will now stand against it, including our owners as well as the Liverpool and Man U owners, as they have already seen the fans reaction🤞
It's coming and can do absolutely nothing about it because it's always about the money. Football was dead when BSkyB and the premier league was formed
The fsg group and Glazers don't care about fan reaction
