I hope Chelsea - RMadrid is on and later we play against chelsea second leg at home

I thought Arsenal was gone for sure tonight but they came back, although from what I saw their second goal was offside and handball at the same time but I wasn't paying much attention since I was getting pissed and the TV for changing the game when goals were scored by other teams and near the end of the games goals started swarming. As for other games pretty much expected results.

Platini said that by 2012 clubs will be allowed to spend only the money they can earn. Thoughts on that?

 

[Cule Angles]

I assume in 2012 Platini will also be demanding that CL money be distributed equally throughout a club's league? No, thought not. It's UEFA's CL that has created the largest money dependence problem in the game and until they tackle the issue of the competition being simply a way to perpetuate the wealth and sporting fortunes of the elite clubs then the situation won't improve.

i think clubs should be able to get ridiculous tv deals if they want. league money should be given out on a position by position basis. however there is the snag that i think a shit team like bolton could get similar prize money to a quarter finalist of the champions league!!!

Well something needs to be done, we can't have teams like Real spending money they don't have on the best players in the world...And then getting Madrid council to bail them out...

But it won't stop rich owners coming in and pricing everyone out of the market like at City. That's an even bigger problem.

Salary and transfer cap could solve many problems. I´d also like to see that minimum number of home-grown players rule kick in.

 

[Zqa-]

I thought there was a home-grown rule already?

 

[Beast]

yep there is a home grown rule in the CL squad, but we need home grown rule in the starting line up

Rich owners wealth doesn't count as part of the turnover, meaning clubs can't just spend their owners' money to get success. However I think there is currently a loophole which means financial gifts to the club count as revenue, so a Roman or someone could just give lump sums to the club every now and then to spend. UEFA need to change something though.
If they change the CL money you'd then start getting all the break away rumoura again with a European super league etc.

 

[Hamzah]

why would they want a super league? they are dominating europe just fine how it is... their european cups would be useless....
