Thoughts on the Superleague?
shareWhy would Tottenham be considered more "super" than Leicester City?

Those are the club involved so far:
6 from England (Man City,Man United,Chelsea,Liverpool,Totthenham,Arsenal)
3 from Italy (Juventus,AC Milan,Inter Milan)
3 from Spain (Real Madrid,Barcelona,Atletico Madrid)
It seems that so far Paris Saint Germain and Bayern Munchen dont want to join! And it also seems that this league could start very soon,there are talks about starting it in August! We'll see if this happens and when it will start.

This was always going to happen eventually.

Yeah exactly it would be a mistake and i think the clubs that are in the ESL know that
shareIt's pretty interesting if you think about how this would play out if it happens.
What happens with the likes of Arsenal?
They've been pretty rubbish (no offense to the Arsenal fans!) for a number of seasons now. They join this league and continuously finish near the bottom, season in, season out. Their own fans lose interest in watching their games, the neutrals don't even care about watching Madrid pummel Arsenal again for the fifth / sixth / whatever season in a row. No one tunes in to watch. TV revenues drop, advertising revenues drop.
What then? A draft pick system to bring in new out of contract players from outside the ESL system? First dibs for the permanent members who finished lowest in the league?
