UEFA Financial Fair Play change can benefit the Reds
Liverpool won't be unduly concerned about the new financial regulations that look set to be imposed by UEFA to replace Financial Fair Play.

The new model, which will be assessed at an executive board meeting of the European Club Association on Thursday, is believed to be referred to as 'financial sustainability regulations'. While FFP has placed limits on the losses clubs in European competition were able to make, FSR are seemingly geared towards tying spending more directly to revenues, where clubs will eventually only be able to spend 70 per cent of their revenues on player wages and the amortisation of transfers. Amortisation being the spreading of a transfer fee paid for a player for accounting purposes over the length of the player's contract.

But what, if anything, will it mean for Liverpool, a club whose financial prudence and unique model means that it has seldom had to worry about skating anywhere near close to FFP breaches under the ownership of Fenway Sports Group.
"If you look at Liverpool; established top four Premier League club; consistent Champions League qualification; bigger revenues than lots of clubs in Europe thanks to the Premier League TV deal and their commercial prowess," Dr Dan Plumley, a football finance expert and senior lecturer in sport finance at Sheffield Hallam University, told the ECHO.
"They would have more revenue than a lot of clubs on the continent, so if you set it as a spending limit of 70 per cent of turnover then the clubs that earn more can spend more, it's as simple as that. You are in some way, by proxy, creating an environment for the biggest clubs to continue to thrive and to continue to pull away."
 
Why don’t they just give Ukraine Russia’s spot and send Scotland to play off final with wales
Russia are also in the playoff, or were. They were supposed to play Poland, who have been advanced to the playoff finals to play Sweden.

So that wont work as Russia aren't going to the WC anyway.
 
Again you are right but it appeared to be a discussion point
I keep falling for it
Think I will just stay quiet from now
Nah, don't be like that. <hug>
My point is that I think it highly unlikely they'll be concerned about football atm so it would be a little bizarre to see them playing football when war is ravaging their country.
I'm surprised they haven't all been called up, tbh.

On another note, I've only just remembered that the WC is going to cause a six-week break in the next domestic season.
I'm gonna love that.
