Thank you. You said it just right.
All other clubs can't compete EPL clubs in the near future even with stadiums. EPL is basically the Super League.
Money talk. Players will go where money is.
Historical name means not much. Remember Jackson Martinez??? Si????

In the future, the UCL will be won by Liverpool, PSG, City and other EPL teams most of the team. Bayern will sneak in here and there.

Bayern will have a chance simply because
A. They have a monopoly on German league talents
B. They are guaranteed to play Champions League every year forever
C. They get the best German talents for free or for peanuts hence they can give them competitive wages. When you pay 0 or next to nothing for Lewandoski, Goretzka, Kimmich etc, then you can give them good wages.

Only this model can compete with Qatar state money (PSG) or the eventual English Super League

Madrid and Barcelona dont have this luxury and neither do the 3 Italian giants. If things dont change they will become 2nd tier teams as time passes

its all good and nice thinking you are bigger club based on history than promoted championship teams and lowly EPL teams but they can outspend you every summer and swoop in and take your targets away from you.

People here are dreaming of a great Milan team. How exactly is that going to happen if we scout a player for months and a no name EPL team takes them because they can easily outspend us and we have to replace them with EPL outcasts?

You've removed yourself from competition, essentially playing pointless friendlies for overseas audiences.

League doesn't matter anymore, you're not in the Champions league so why would you care about the games? Winning means nothing, losing means nothing.

But at least you'll be able to spend billions

Well you can still relegated from league, so there's that.

And how is it friendly when you are literally playing for a prize :lol:

Even putting that aside, how does it render history meaningless?

It doesn't render your history meaningless, but it devalues those achievements. Why bother with the league now if you just get automatic qualification based on being AC Milan? Clubs have always been for the locals primarily, you realise this would be the start of playing all your games in Dubai and America right?

The irreparable damage this would do to your domestic league and you'd be fine with it yeah?

Fans of Fiorentina, Atalanta, Roma etc having absolutely nothing to play for doesn't bother you no? Football is about rivalries, competition and passion not making the best 11 for Fifa ffs.

Personally, I'd rather we struggle and compete where the result has meaning rather than buying top class players and compete where results dont really matter.

bingo.. I couldn't put it in a better way that you did.

Now.. they are linking Haaland Mbappe to Madrid..

5 years from now.... the next superstar will be linked to Liverpool and Manchester Clubs

Spanish and italian clubs will compete with newly promoted EPL clubs.

Thanks guys for not understanding this. The new Super League is already here. It's called English Premiere League.
