Chinese football league

Post by theleader82 »

With the growth of football in china, and huge sums of money available could it spell the end of the strength of the English premier league? With the talent pool of players spread across more and more leagues, the individual strengths of these leagues will be diminshed. I could see a Euro league starting in the future to compete with China.

Hope it has improved since Gazza's time at Gansu . Drogba came running back soon.

Good luck to them. We live in a new era now, the British Empire is finished. England is bankrupt. The 'Orient' is taking back history.

Manchester Unided attendances will fall in the next few years because a large number of their fans will start to support whichever club is winning all the pots in China.

Flights from Dublin,Oslo and Kuala Lumpar to Bejing will be flying every ten minutes.

Whenever the camera cuts to the crowd at Man Utd, I rarely see a white face. Not saying that's a good or bad thing. But anyone who supports Man Utd, in my experience, is a fucking cunt.

Yep, nothing worse than London based fans of the Manchester clubs. Unberable.

PL finally getting a taste of what it's like for the rest of Europe (outside of Real & Barca).

TBF has any top club lost a prize player to China? Oscar is high profile, but not that important to Chelsea. Liverpool lost out on that young Brazilian (non-international) and there are a few examples like that. Tevez practically coming out of retirement to earn more money than David Zuckerberg. There's money but nothing that has made me think China will conquer all. If anything, if China want to buy all the best foreign talent, our clubs might actually get some young brits coming through.

They'll all do the shortest term possible on the maximum money then hotfoot it back to here ASAP.

Half the contracts won't even run their course IMO.
