FC Bayern Forum

What would salary caps entail though? Uniform salary caps across all UEFA members and their top leagues? So Bayern would be forced to offer not more to their top player than leagues with legitimately amateur players in them? Defeats the purpose altogether, so you'd need FA-based salary caps, which is essentially what is happening with the separate negotiation of TV deals and the resulting asymmetrical distribution of money when comparing top leagues. That's not a way to enforce equality (the necessity of which is, at the core of it, completely debatable to begin with).

In fact I was about to suggest this as one of the few less ridiculous ideas to limit "new money" and behemoth clubs. But then that's going to skewer the strength of clubs towards that of their national teams too. Which would be hilarious for England.

It cannot be limited anymore. That should have been done back in 2001 or 2002. That wasn't a ridiculous rule. not at all. Till 1995 you did have a chance to gather one generation, buy few domestic players, produce youth players and dominate for few years or become an important part of domestic competitions.

Today we have so rich and powerful clubs who can after 5-6 years change things once again and buy players of all those clubs who can't compete with their financial power. Maybe in England would be possible with this new TV revenue, in other leagues, I don't know... Maybe France where Lyon have been doing great job this season with very good policy or Atletico, Valencia with possible youth recruitment.

Whatever, it's way too late. EU played the key role by abolishing 8+3 rule. Fifa was suggesting between 2001-2005 to at least try with 6+5, but no.

But I totally agree, for England 8+3 rule would be wuhuuuuu with the current 2/3 foreigners and 1/3 English. National coach would be proud.

In terms of fighting to make football(especially domestic) more competitive, brake a little bit the big clubs with their spending transfer policies, big fees and player salaries, etc. People have got nothing of this high professionalism, jet-set lives, media fapping on Leo-Cristiano competition, etc.


Damage which has been made in the last 20 years cannot be neither fixed nor controlled anymore. People will just have to wait for World Cup or all of continental national competitions to see some football and feel something what they've had used to feel in club football before 2000's. There were maybe one or two matches in which I didn't enjoy last summer at World Cup, the rest were interesting.

We'll face major troubles if they let someone to do exactly the same thing what Qatar did in handball with foreign players, then it's gonna be completely pointless to watch and follow football.

I hope that there are some really smart people in the other FAs thinking about ways to limit this. The impact of this can basically destroy the competition in Europe.

True the time is perfect for us Asians not sure about our American friends. PL success is just marketing and of course accessibility with the English language. Better partnership with English broadcasters would be better than changing the time.

More exposure of the YouTube channel and even uploading more matches there would help the league exposure.

Wow, I thought they want to remove 50+1 rule and then boom - really nothing spectacular.

Good news!
She has an impressive CV

What will be the Laura Masi's function since we already have Andreas Jung (responsible at board level for sponsorship and events, brand management, new media and IT, merchandising and licenses, international relations, and marketing and PR for the Allianz Arena)?

It's simply hard to stay excited about the league when it's out of action for around a month, + it means we have less games to play and hence screen obviously.

why ? - I know it is frustrating to have a month off but it gives the players a break and maybe an edge over their competitors in Europe.
Actually I am in favour of reducing it further ... to 16 teams - first of all the level of football will be better and the players will have physical stress... therefore less injuries. Actually uefa had a plan to have a 16 team league mandatory all over Europe.
