European Super League - Dead on arrival

From reading some of the stuff online last night it did seem that some people didn't fully grasp that the ESL was a CL alternative, not a PL alternative. Of course there would still have been significant knock-on effects to the PL, that shouldn't be ignored but some posts did indicate a lack of understanding of the intent of the ESL.

I think the PL would have become like the FA Cup is now - a devalued competition, with the top 6 sides not playing their strongest teams and viewing figures going off a cliff.

After a couple of years proving whether it was viable or not they would pulled out of the domestic leagues to form a genuine European league i reckon

It was the gradual introduction of the franchise model. With all the interest focusing on the ESL there is no way the domestic leagues did not wither.
