@rationalhumanis The US does sport as a business better than anyone but not as purely sport. The obsession with revenue is proof of that. No one outside of the US cares about how much revenue a league brings in. When we compare leagues we compare sporting achievements not financial value
@SkySportsNews MGW, Morgan Rogers and Eze have all had better seasons. Bellingham hasn’t had the best season but also still been better. Foden hasn’t had an average season and palmer has been poor but the PR machine somehow always works to get these guys called up
@StanCollymore So what is the difference now? Money spent on the squad? The amount of money the prem rakes in? The amount fans pay? You say before you wouldn’t have cared but now you do so what’s the deciding factor on whether a team can play a particular style of football?
@_LewisLFC@CFC_Crowe This would make sense if it worked but were top of the league so it clearly doesn’t. Chelsea showed last night that play deep and nick a goal doesn’t work and so have most teams we’ve faced so why would they keep doing it?
@StevePenk Definitely a foul but that doesn’t negate the point in the article that city have been way below standards & that decision or even ‘corruption’ isn’t the reason if city don’t win it. Also fair to point out that Rodri hasn’t exactly been vocal when some big decisions went his way!
@terryflewers Tribalism drowns it out every time. Unless every team calls out poor refereeing every time then nothing will change but tribalism wins every time. Opposition fans will just talk about crying and biases and all the other stuff that stops the focus being on poor refereeing standars
@Artemisfornow But that 21 year old also needs somewhere to live right? And food to eat? Food prices up by 40% in that time, gas up 140%, electricity up 70%, rent costs up 25%
It’s fine to say it’s unsustainable for businesses but it’s also unsustainable for humans
@piersmorgan@rioferdy5 I say it all the time but every player from that fergie era, class of 92 group has 0 football intelligence. Thats why they’ve all failed at any sort of management and become 2nd rate podcasters and 3rd rate pundits
@dwright75 In the same way you would be if it had gone against us? Or did you just laugh at arsenal? I’ve said it a million times but unless all fans drop the tribalism then we’ll never get better refereeing standards
