Confidentially clause no doubt.

I have no doubt Jose didn’t mince his words about the Super League and that’s what hastened his departure.

Let’s hope Klipperty, Arteta, Ole Gunner and Pepe follow... they certainly need to.

If they do, there could be more managerial casualties soon

It's very harsh, but the FA's and UEFA have to ban each of the players playing for these teams from the Euros/World Cup/representing their national teams.

It's not on the players but, right now, the players are the only ones who can make a stand.

Without the players, the clubs have no product. And if the players see their careers torn up in front of them, and then throw on top them getting kicked out of Europe and point deductions etc, the clubs will have no choice.

Kane, Mount, Sterling, Rashford (especially Rashford) etc. They'll know this is wrong. And no, they don't deserve to have their careers threatened, but ultimately that's on their employers who made this decision. And when it came to anything contractual, legally, if they went on strike, the PFA and FAs would be behind them.

And then if that works, if the clubs come back, you give them full whack. Point deductions, European bans of a season or two, transfer bans.

Let's be honest, players playing in this league will be getting big big pay rises...some will double their wages......

Let's see how many choose their international careers, and love of football, over this...the summer transfer window will tell you alot...
 
This is absolutely the culmination of the ruination of football as it was known.

The closed system, domestic leagues all ruined.

International game would be finally killed off completely. Of course it's hyperbolic but I might be done watching if this actually happens.

I just don't see the point. The best players funneled to ultra wealthy clubs who have no merit to he crowned in the superleague.

Football is the best sport at rewarding winning. You can go from the bottom of the football pyramid to the peak by earning it. It's just all gone. It's no longer the meritocracy it was. It's all just crap. Like everything ruined.
