💰💰💰The Lewis family must have known that Levy would want to sell his shares after chucking him out. But they have made their own lives much more difficult if they have no relationship with the incoming minority.
Daniel Levy is now officially the most successful individual investor in any football club in history.
When people spoke about Levy only as a hired hand CEO, it always missed the point. He was a major shareholder and owner. Now, presumably, a dollar billionaire.
This is FIFA overthinking the whole thing. The average US based viewer who isn’t a football/soccer fan won’t be won over by the “fan-centric pre match ceremony”. They will be won over by the electricity of the crowd. The excitement of the games themselves and the drama and stories of each nation’s quest for glory
I don't get the desire to change football in the hope that Americans like it.
They have a wildly successful sports landscape. Football is wildly popular without a huge share of the US market, so offer the loyal American fans what THEY fell in love with, along with everyone else!
Iraola will love Szoboszlai.
Expect him to be used as a #8 in open play and as the #10 defensively.
Wirtz will be used as the #10 in open play and as a split striker defensively, just like how Kroupi was used.
Players who are not as mobile will play in the #6 or not at all…
@guerlainguerier But this is exactly what they’re talking about. They acknowledge that he helped them out but say they won’t accept that being dangled over their heads forever while being treated like fools.
