Now the reason for Man Utd and Liverpool's "Big Picture" for football had come out 'Liverpool & Man Utd in 'European Premier League' talks' http://www.skysports.com/share/12109174 A massive money grab from the so called "big clubs" in Europe as well as the association who's supposedly has the games best interests at heart
Wish the big six would hurry up and **** off haven’t watched a premier league game for two years so I won’t miss them.
Given that the league would not likely contain more than 20 teams, would all of our 'Big 6' get in? I would doubt it.Off the top of my head, the following teams would be sniffing around England - Man Utd, Man City, Liverpool, Spurs, Chelsea, Arsenal Italy - Napoli, Roma, AC Milan, Inter, Juventus France - PSG, Monaco, Lyon Spain - Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid, Barca, Valencia, Sevilla Dutch - Ajax, PSV Portugal - Benfica, Sporting, Porto Germany - Bayern, Leipzig, Dortmund Jawdee Nashun - Newcassle
According to Sky, only 5 Premier teams would probably get in, 3 from Spain and Italy, a couple each from France and Germany and the rest would be made up of "invited guest teams"
My thoughts exactly. Spurs would probably be favourite from that list. If there's only 3 from Spain and Italy, there could be hell on there too. You would think the 2 Madrid's and Barca, would be in there, so that would mean that Sevilla, who've won the Europa League God knows how many times, would miss out.
Yep, I reckon they should sod off as well... cos when (if) we get back to the top tier we have a better chance of winning the league
Have just read the article again. Its more of a replacement to the Champions League by the looks of it.
Everton are bigger than Man city and Chelsea in history so where are they ?, oh sorry just since 1993 i see ! the money teams get in though.
If they go by Premier league history and longevity, I would have thought that Man City would be at risk. Its only just over 20 years since they were in our league now...if I were the chairman of any of the other clubs and Everton I would be pi55ed off to see them elevated to this....simply on the back of recent oil money.
There will be court cases all across Europe with teams thinking that it should be them. It made me laugh this morning as BBC news reported that FIFA is apparently keen on the idea. . . . . . No S**t Sherlock, imagine the lashings of ca$h that would be heading their way. As I've said above, if whoever they are leave there's no coming back. Clearly these clubs are not thinking about their fans, just their fattening wallets.
