Hopefully this actually causes UEFA to reform, but I’m not hopeful. I’m not a fan of the ESL as I think it’ll be worse for smaller nations and teams to compete in elite competitions they deserve. That’s not to say UEFA does a good job at it either

United are playing with no urgency, absolutely shocking

I agree with you. The inconsistencies also cause a lot of confusion and delay imo. To me at least, it hasn’t made the game worse to watch at all

He's being bankrolled is my guess

Yeah. A lot of the players they've signed have earned a lot of money in their career. Its not like they're taking people out of poverty and giving them money. These players are already multi-millionaires and are just selling their soul for a couple extra million

Such a sad move for a newcastle cult hero

No, not for the price they paid. I think hes talented for sure but I still think Chelsea is a mess. Theyll have a lot of roster turnover in 2 years and increased pressure after such a failure of a season. I think hell show flashes but will overall still be part of the mess that is Chelsea's squad

Yeah USL2 isnt included in this, but there is going to be another division between USL1 and USLC probably consisting of teams from both the divisions. Maybe Ballard and a couple other USL2 teams will move up to make the third division, but that depends on if they meet the financial and stadium requirements

A team I support did exactly this and it was quite successful. I believe it was $60-$70 for the whole season and included ALL home games (League, cup, and Europe) with replays posted on the same day. For me, it was worth it but I watch almost all their games

No you’re getting billed for this too

Oh I am against PSG as I do not think the sport should be an avenue for sport washing and spending exorbitant amounts of money. I think Nagelsmann is a very good coach and is still young so I did not want PSG to sign him as that would have been a good move
