    Well either they go, or I go. I suspect I'm not alone.

    They're going nowhere that's just never going happen.

    We have to hope it just doesn't go ahead.

    Chaos, it's GONE ahead. It's done. ESL starts in August. They've signed up to 23 years, the money is waiting for them or with them all already.

    Currently they couldn't give two ****s about the state of the Champions League, but as it stands Leicester, West Ham, Everton and Leeds will be playing the likes of PSG, Bayern, Porto and then Atalanta, Sevilla, etc.

    The FA and Premier League have to make a decision right ****ing now as to what they're going to do about it. Do you allow teams, with a £350m head start on players and no interest in league positions, continue to play in your tournament, or not? It's a no brainer for me. This lot have decided to try and get a lot more money pretending to be the best teams in the World, yet with no way of measuring that.

    It's the biggest disgrace I've ever seen in sport and all 12 should be banned from domestic competition with immediate effect. The FA and EFL will definitely ban them from those cups, no question. It's just whether each top flight will have the balls to do what's right.

    They won't be kicked out the league and the players will be allowed to represent their countries

    This is the end for nufc fans im afraid along with the fans of every other club outside the top 6.

    I've no doubt people will still go and support their clubs

    This game means **** all, so what's the point of playing it.
    Clubs should make a stand and refuse to play the scabs.

    I think we have a chance as we're catching them in a bit of a slump. I'd give Willock a chance and drop Almiron.

    I'll go for 2-1 liverpool, but I think we are well in with a shot.

    ---------Wilson-----ASM----------
    ---------------Willock--------------
    ----------Shelvey----Lonstaff--------------
    Ritchie-----------------------------Murphy
    ------Dummett-Clark-Fernandez---
    ------------------Dubravka-----------------

    I'd drop Almiron and let Willock have a chance as a box to box mid.

    He's 1 of them, not sure if he's THE best, but he should be one of the 1st names on the teamsheet

    1 of those 3 anyway, Dubravka possibly if we include keepers

    Max? Lol. He's a 1 in 10 performer
    Wilson? Nah. He looks better purely because our other strikers on recent years have been ****
    Almiron is a 7 every game

    Almiron does so much off the ball it's incredible.. He's superhuman in that way.. Its such an overlooked part of football. people say 'oh but he doesn't alot of defensive work' as if that's not an absolutely brilliant asset to have.

    it's one of the biggest strengths any player can have and not just a weak compliment

    Ummmm.... History, league position etc says they'll smash us.... But they're dogshit right now and we're on a bit of a run.

    I'll go for 1-1 they ain't scoring many atm.
