He came out and said english sides dominance of the champs league wasnt good for football??
what exactly isnt good if about the best 2 teams in europe playing in the final whether they are english, spanish, french etc??
For what its worth man utd have offered 33.5mil in english pounds and theyve turned that down so they are hardly likely to accept 35mil euros are they??
Well, you see, the thing is that for the past couple years, the 4 last teams to make the final are always from England or like 3 of them are, in the long run, it is very bad because it drains interests, just the same to always see the same 2-3 teams battling for the title in France, England, Spain or Italy. If there was an english team every year for the championsleague, it wouldn't be that bad, but when 3 or 4 of the last finalists are almost always from england, it kills football, I would say the same if they would come from Canada, Santa Banana, Iceland or Norway.
So how exactly would FIFA go about altering that?
Would they put an embargo on transfers for clubs in england? would they supply the likes of milan, madrid with finances??
The premiership is the most watched sporting competition in the world. Surely that shoud be embraced rather than criticised??
one dangerous horrible bloke
