PSG and now City, they should be the first one to be on board given that they have never won the UCL. They are both run by orgs that are in the Arab world. One with a vested interest in seeing a world cup done and the other that has a rapidly diminishing image across the board for how it went about its "shrewd" business. To take a shit on UEFA and eventually FIFA would be suicide for the Qataris. Once the WC is done they'd start singing a brand new tune. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jose is but he's been sacked already. I think if City and Chelsea leave, they will be replaced by Napoli and Roma or Sevilla etc, at least that's what I understood from that pathetic interview of Perez last night. PSG & City are both owned by Mansour, directly and indirectly, they are more about PR than the money, PSG was bought to take the heat off us and to stick it to Platini with a French club breaking all the rules Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

montybhopa 45 Posted April 20, 2021 Share Posted April 20, 2021 The only fans I see supporting this is the Indian glory hunter fans who already support like 20 teams around the league and it's a wet dream for them to see all these teams play each and other regularly and they have already changed their profile pictures to Perez.

The Palace Fan 3,402 Posted April 20, 2021 Share Posted April 20, 2021 The "they've done bad stuff previously" angle people are spouting is tiresome.

It's not about the money, which in itself is already a problem and becomes an even bigger problem under these proposals and would require them to be fought anyway, but it isn't THE problem. The problem is the lack of integrity in the competition, automatic entry to an "elite" competition and unchecked self-governance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
