English Premier League ~ 19/20 Season

[Yorkyblue]

Is anyone else confused why Liverpool fans are so bothered? This time last year I'm sure they said only the Champions League is important. This year they're saying scrap that and finish the league season. Very confusing set of fans!

If you need to ask that question........!

The only conclusion I come to is that they're a set of c****.

[Angelito]

Nah, that's every set of fans.

I'd rather not have Liverpool win the League. For that matter, it doesn't matter if they win the UCL because they do that anyway. They've been in 3 UCL Finals since we were in one.

Same for City. They've won 4 League titles since we last won. So it doesn't really matter if City win it again. But City winning the UCL would hurt more because they've never won it.

A club that wins the UCL regularly would claim that UCL is the biggest trophy. A club that wins the League regularly will claim that the League is more important.

That's just the way it is.

But Liverpool fans now seem to be claiming the League is more important and they don't win it regularly!

I'm not sure what their concern is anyway. If they're as good as they tell us it will be easy to win next season.

I do like the idea of this seasons winners being; Liverpool*

*didn't actually win it.

what about the multi-billionaire owners and other highly paid executives? The focus on the players is wrong

Most players probably already do things for charity and extra things with whats going on now. They just don't feel the need to have to tell everyone they're doing something.

They're 2 games away from clinching their first League title in 30 years. 'Course they will claim so.

And, they probably won't win it next season. They're on course to amassing 100+ points this season. That'd equate to 197+ points in two seasons. No side can sustain that over three seasons. They will falter next season like City have this season.

Even if the season concludes now and Liverpool are declared champions, I would oppose that. They will win it if the season continues. But they haven't won it. It's not a mathematical certainty yet.

Capitalism—where millionaires and folks below them are supposed to ensure the financial safety of billionaires.

exactly, I've seen a few stories get out about what the Vardy's do but they never seek any praise or publicity for it

This has all come about since certain football clubs took the piss by putting their hand out for taxpayers money to pay their staff.

If football had acted sooner, and looked after its own affairs itself, nobody would have said anything.

Instead it dragged its feet - and some of the wealthiest clubs in the land put their hand into a pot that wasn't meant for them.

what do you expect from a tax exile

Thats what I mean by Liverpool*. If they were declared winners it would always have that star by it showing that they never actually won it.

You have to complete the season end of

[LMAO]

I wish Liverpool hadn't lost to Watford or that the season had ended before that game. Would have been incredible scenes for their possible Invincible season to get taken away.

Dont agree 100%
Of course all executives should be affected but so should players 100%
An easy model would be to take a over all club weekly wage bill, then take the lowest point that could be taken to self sustain that number so across the board at what ever number a percentage is given, it's just a matter of scale for the payment structure, a mathematical dream for some peeps.
Fact is its purely greed

You have to complete the season end of

So if this somehow carried until 2022 you think we should still finish the season?

No idea how they are going to deal with contracts that expire at the end of June. It gives unfair advantages. You can't just extend a contract.

Same as all this crap about having boot camps and finishing the season quickly with games every day behind closed doors. For people to think it's safe to fly in players back home from all over the world shows how many people still don't take this serious.
