Not open for further replies.
Christ lads .....1st day back in work since the start of the last lockdown.
Just got on this thread ....150 pages since 9am :eek: ....Heads falling off stadium jackets at the ready.

Anything happening.....not reading all that :rolleyes:

Short version - 12 clubs: the Sky 6, Barca and the Madrid clubs, Juve and the Milan clubs. Financing by JP. The Germans, PSG and Porto told them to get stuffed. UEFA has come out guns blazing saying the players will be banned from internationals. Meeting of the jilted 14 tomorrow morning sans Sky 6. Suspicion is that they intend to take the lemons and try to burn the Sky 6's house down with them, though there are doubts about their resolve.
 
According to the Liverpool Echo, Klopp told German sports magazine Kicker: "I hope this Super League will never happen.

"With the way the Champions League is now running, football has a great product, even with the Europa League.

"For me, the Champions League is the Super League, in which you do not always end up playing against the same teams.

"Of course, it is [financially] important, but why should we create a system where Liverpool faces Real Madrid for 10 straight years?

"Who wants to see that every year?"
 
As if that John Henry has any conversations with Klopp. He’ll be one of them owners who has about 5 different people to get through before you can speak to him. Only shows his face at their games when their doing well.
To be fair, I wouldn't want to have a conversation with Klopp, he looks like a man who has significant struggles with halitosis

At least Sheffield don't have skin in the game lol lol
 
That Klopp quote that is doing the rounds came from this douchebag and was plucked right out of his ass. His massive 850 followers gives a hint of his credibility.

 
yeah we all want them gone for the betrayal, but its looking to me like the prem probably wants them around because does it really matter if they play in the super league or champs league? the prem just wants the money the top 6 clubs will give to the competition. These six teams already said they want to play in the domestic league anyway. They don't really care though - because they get a ton of money playing in the new super league, they're just doing this to ask for a bigger slice of the pie...

The other clubs won't like them being around, but they'll tolerate it because of the money.

The situation is, however, that English football is affiliated to UEFA, and that guy in UEFA, Ceferin, appears to be 100% determined to remove the rogue 12 from all association to anything connected to UEFA's overarching control. That guy is on a mission!
 
if UEFA and FIFA hold their nerve England could be without the following:
Dean Henderson
Walker
Stones
Maguire
Shaw
TAA
Rhys James
Gomez
Chilwell
Henderson
Foden
Mount
Winks
Sako
Sterling
Greenwood
Rashford
Kane
Still got Rice, Maddison, Bellingham, Sancho, Grealish, DCL. Defence would be an issue but there would still be a good players available.
