Do they not realise dream matches are only dream matches because they rarely happen? If they happen multiple times a week the effect will totally diminish. It's already like that.

I guess they don't care or think about it like that, just why watch Man City-Burnley twice a year rather than Man City Juve twice a year, why watch any football with a 'shit' team?

GAZIDIS: ESL GOOD FOR AC MILAN AND WHOLE OF FOOTBALL
 

"We're confident that this new competition will capture the imagination of billions of soccer fans all over the world and will be a new, exciting chapter for the game," former Arsenal chief executive Gazidis wrote in a letter to Milan's sponsors and commercial partners. 

"The Super League will provide value and support to the whole soccer pyramid with greater financial resources." 

Calling it soccer now also

The league if you take out the 6 - not just from the table but fro the results. Lose 97 and others but gain 05/06!

Here’s the problem: guess who gets to call himself a PL-winning manager.

Spoiler

John Purcell from football finance specialists, Vysyble, has been explaining why some of the large clubs - especially those with American owners - want to join the European Super League.

He told Radio 5 Live's Wake Up to Money programme: "They can see that yes, there's an opportunity in football, but the regulatory landscape in order to make the game more amenable from a financial standpoint needs to change.

"Of the big six clubs, three are American owned.

"The owners all have sporting franchises in the US, they're very well-versed in how to run a very profitable business.

"They haven't been able to do that here in England."

Sell up then.

The NFL makes $11bn a year from their tv deal. The NBA is looking at $8bn for their next tv deal. The champions league makes $2.5bn/year. Important champions league games are watched by millions. The final is watched by 400m people, the super bowl gets 100m. UEFA are incompetent in how they manage tv rights for the champions league. There’s no reason why a more product-driven organisation couldn’t double or triple the amount of money that the champions league could generate. This is core issue. 
 

UEFA could stagger the start of games, they could play more afternoon or early kickoff games to get Asian audiences, can play late night games to get American audiences. All the talk about tradition and history masks a lack of effort in developing the product. Why does UEFA sell tv rights to individual countries? Why not group it and sell single rights for multiple countries or continent-wide rights?
