1. The number no one wants to talk about regarding UEFA and the European Super League. Solidarity contributions for UEFA are a mere 129 MLN EUROS/YEAR while ESL contributions (8% of TV rights per contract leaked by @derspiegel ) would be 400 MLN EUROS/YEAR.
@derspiegel 2. Of the available UEFA money, that is destined to TOP DIVISION clubs youth programmes for clubs that DO NOT take part to ECL or EL, 80% goes to leagues that have at least one club qualifying for ECL group stages, the remaining 20% goes to leagues that have no club qualifying.
3. The exact figures per UEFA are as image taken from UEFA web site shows. Meaning National leagues with participants in ECL get EU6.863 mln per league. And those without any ECL participant get EU643,250 per League. Image
4. If the European Super League adopts the same principles (the details haven't been released yet) counting the same number of associations, 5 leagues would get EU320 mln and 50 leagues would get EU80 mln. So, wait for it...
5. Italy, Spain, France, Germany and England would get EU64 MLN per league. And the rest would get EU1.6 mln each. So this is the comparison: EU6.863 mln per league vs EU64 mln per league with ESL (almost TEN times as much) . And EU643k vs EU1.6 mln with ESL.(almost 3x as much).
6. THIS IS MATH. Based on UEFA's own rules. OH AND... the small clubs getting Super League contributions would STILL play in the European Champions League and the Europa League as they're NOT Super League members.
7. So everyone going around talking about "Football for the rich" vs "football of the fans/people" have been LYING TO YOU. Because the smaller clubs AND the single leagues would get a LOT more money from the ESL than they do from UEFA.
8. There's been a steady disinformation campaign ongoing about the Super League and its effects on smaller clubs, and what's worse is that even members of said clubs have parroted the ridiculous UEFA propaganda without BOTHERING TO GET INFORMED first.
9. There hasn't been ANY information campaign on the Super League but just and only a spur-of-the-moment knee jerk reaction from disinformed fans who, especially in England, have been manipulated by authorities on the subject.
10. While I can condone fans' ignorance, I do not condone the generally one-sided and ignorant media attitude, biased to the extrreme. DO YOUR HOMEWORK. Look at the ESL contract in @derspiegel and report the REAL numbers. Otherwise you're editorializing, NOT informing. /END.
Ugh, has, not have. Forgive me for the ridic verb mess.

1. There are no saints in football, but to claim that UEFA and FIFA are the "football of the people" or worse, that they represent the romanticism and morality of football is ludicrous. People who organize and make money off of the FIFA QATAR world cup are now ruling UEFA, too.
2. Where is the outrage of the media over the fact workers in Qatar were made to do their job in inhumane conditions, to the point there have been multiple deaths to build stadiums? All forgotten, right? Bc hey they are SUCH good people, in Ceferin's words.
3. Where is the outrage of all those coaches/players about "football of the people" while sitting on their millionaire paychecks, for which they demand increases whenever a contract is renewed, over the fact women WON'T be allowed the same access to Qatar stadiums as men?

1. Non intendo dire più di quanto segue qui, perché ci sono problemi ben più seri del pallone di cui occuparsi, e non ho voglia di interminabili discussioni. Ma sto vedendo reazioni assolutamente ridicole dopo l'eliminazione col Porto. E come al solito, cecità.
2. Che ci si metta a discutere Cristiano Ronaldo mi fa scappare da ridere. Ma veramente vogliamo accusare lui quando c'è un problema sul quale non ho risparmiato commenti (in radio in sede opportuna) da mesi? Che si chiama allenatore. Dalla scorsa stagione. Fine.
3. Tutti questi tifosi, nella maggior parte dei casi dell'ultima ora ovvero post 2006, che sproloquiano su rosa di qui rosa di là, e non capiscono assolutamente nulla del fatto che la rosa perfetta non serve a NIENTE se non c'è un input specifico da parte dell'allenatore.

I'd suggest a quick consideration: the people who attempted a coup yesterday (bc that's what it was), following the orders of the US "President" are not "disenfrenchised" or forgotten. That's not who they are. They are white supremacists who are seeing their idol wane.
2. They're brainwashed by Fox News, QAnon etc. By their own choice, not for lack of options. They're Bannon's friends. Dude in pics with Meloni and Salvini. That those of us who work with the US know far too well. It was all premeditated and facilitated by the "President".
3. Trump has been assaulting democracy for four years. This didn't start yesterday. Yesterday was the culmination of his autocratic and dictatorial desires. We've been saying this for five years. And @HillaryClinton warned everyone about this, even during the debates.

Inviterei ad una veloce considerazione: quelli che si sentono "emarginati" non sono coloro che ieri hanno tentato un colpo di Stato (perché questo era) agli ordini del "Presidente" USA. Quelli di ieri non sono emarginati: sono supremazisti bianchi che vedono il loro idolo sparire
2. È gente lavata di testa da Fox News, QAnon ed affini. Per scelta, non per mancanza di opzioni. Sono gli amichetti di Bannon. Quello che si fa le foto con Meloni e Salvini. Che chi lavora con gli USA conosce fin troppo bene. Tutto premeditato e foraggiato dal "Presidente".
L'assalto di Trump alla democrazia dura da quattro anni. Non è iniziato ieri. Ieri è stato il culmine dei suoi desideri autocratici e dittatoriali. Sono quasi cinque anni che lo diciamo. E Hillary Clinton aveva avvertito tutti di questo, pure durante i dibattiti.

1) Here I go, bc I've had enough. So the 2016 election, in which WE CHECKED different counties in different swing states (I remember keeping an eye on three in Michigan) and the vote count RELEASED BY THE COUNTY had more votes than voters, IN FAVOR OF TRUMP, was fine.
2) The 2016 election in which there was PROVEN Russian interference, with people going to jail over it. The 2016 election during which MULTIPLE STATE ELECTORAL SYSTEMS WERE INFILTRATED BY RUSSIAN HACKERS (that too proven AND CONFIRMED by REPUBLICANS, too) was just fine.
3)The 2016 election in which Donald Trump won THREE different swing states by essentially the same paper thin margin, with the counting vote issues that I underlined in the first point, was just fine. FOR REPUBLICANS THAT IS. And when TV called it, THEY said it was over.
