This shit is just lazy journalism at this point. There are many things wrong with football. Spending idiotically for no trophies doesn’t even make the top ten
Football / Soccer / Calcio / Futebol / Fußball
There's like a million football teams in England that don't make any money and play purely for pleasure man. If you say that "football" has gone wrong because one club is making money, then it says something mostly about what you see as football, not the actual whole football lol.
Hilarious, their fans are toxic
Overpay FC.
9 months, when the transfer window is actually open. Talk all you want now but Barca already couldn't spend anything on transfer fees this last summer after selling future revenue to make ends meet
Yes, when oh when will somebody finally say something bad about Manchester City.
Other billionaires will do what Boehly has done and Chelsea are setting a precedent. Look at how Newcastle have done their transfer business, that is how City started off before doing what they do now. Chelsea are not even close to what City are doing because City would never overpay to the same extent, nor would they offer contracts at such ludicrous lengths.
Wow, you sound intelligent.
Newcastle were before Chelsea. I'd say the reason for their recent takeover was the previous sugar daddy period
It's a lot more okay because it indicates his intentions are more likely to boost his local team of which he was presumable a lifelong fan.
It's a far cry from Abramovich using Chelsea to shore up his political and personal security, or the UAE using Man City as a sportswashing vessel to for PR gain for their theocratic police state.
I'm not pissed about teams with rich backers spending more money. I'm pissed about what interests are being furthered by football clubs being used as cynical political tools.
No Chelsea are the most recent trailblazers who’ve been overtaken by the poster boys
The poster boys are City, PSG and Newcastle
