Klopp has always been one who cherishes tradition and fan culture, so I'm not surprised he despises the concept. Tuchel on the other hand has been working for PSG and Chelsea, so I guess there's a bit of a different mindset there.

curious to hear what Solskjaer thinks. Part of me believes he hates it (SAF has already come out and slammed it), but I fully expect a bland "I focus on our games" answer.

Nothing changes for Everton. They are still the perennial transfer window winners who almost make the top four.

That would be wonderful, though I'd prefer Leeds.

I can't believe that after 31 years of supporting my team through so many ups and downs that I'm going to have to disown them over this Super League, but I will if it starts up as planned.

Look at Newcastle wearing the big boy pants. Interesting that this doesn't help Wolves or the bottom 3, in addition to Everton.

The knock on effect if the six teams were kicked out would be interesting. Assuming the same number of teams were kept in the league, there'd be no relegation for a season with 6 teams being promoted from the Championship, 6 from League One and so on.

I'm thinking this is a power play to get more more $$$ from EUFA for Champion's League. No way Super League happens. Too bad the fans had to be exploited for the owners to get their way though.

Hearing Chelsea may have rejected or pulled out of the Super League.

Hope that's true man.

So glad the backlash from the fans, media, and players has worked

Gary Neville especially deserves credit, he set the tone right away since he was on air when it was breaking

Still hope the clubs are all banned from Europe for a season

Well...for Spurs that'd be an easy call.

Alright. So this is officially absolutely insane.

Can we get Brexit to happen by tomorrow too? I mean, if we're going nuts lets not half-ass it now.

Two instances in that game where VAR although slowing the game down got two huge calls, both missed by the ref, absolutely right.

Two instances that if not there we'd be talking about how the ref got it wrong and if only there was some sort of technology/system in place that could have caught it.

Far from perfect but it does have its positives if applied correctly.

And for the record I do not believe the game winning penalty awarded to The Spurs as a direct result of Var intervention is due to any conspiracy theory.

Pure idiocy from Cash picking up that red with two quick yellows. 10 v 10, let's go!
