That first line crystallises a fundamental difference in US and European thinking when it comes to sport.
For most football fans in Europe, clubs are a family obsession passed down through generations, boiling that down to “franchise value” is missing the point spectacularly.

What a fucking skid mark.

Nothing else to say!
