Clubs shouldn’t be paying for agents. Players should pay the agents. That would help out with the outlandish spending

[@user-sn1ib2sd4m]

I follow alot of sports. Never heard of an agent holding a club to ransom and controlling an athletes career over his own financial gains. Allows football to be disgustingly corrupt on a daily basis.

[@environm3ntalist549]

Then players would get paid more to pay the agents 🤦

[@Kyleterp1]

@@environm3ntalist549 not necessarily, but even if so, Chelsea paid £75m to agents last summer, the amount of wage increase would still be less than that number

[@Kyleterp1]

@@Shdhd2347 they could negotiate on their own behalf or just hire a lawyer. De bruyne used an analytic firm to help negotiate his contract, not an agent. It’s not true wages would massively increase as a result of it, look in America as an example. Why should clubs pay for people who don’t work for them? The agents work for the player. On an average contract, the agent fees from a player. would be roughly 1 weeks wages. Also, like I mentioned previously, Chelsea’s spending would decrease massively even if they to give the players an extra 1-2 % increase or so. And eliminated the agent payments.

[@hartshapedvid]

@@Shdhd2347 it wouldn't it would lead to more competitive agent's rates if they have to undercut each other to gain business. If you're charging a fortune a player will drop you for another agent that will get them just as good a deal for less of a fee.

If they made agents fees a flat rate like they do in the NFL, that would massively help drive down excessive expenditure.

[@mickeyhynes]

To be honest, I am in favour of hard caps as well. It's just an endless arms race otherwise that drives inflation down the pyramid. This inevitably puts smaller clubs out of business and causes hardships and administration for others. Simon speaks as football as a pure business, when it clearly isn't as straightforward as that. There are many stakeholders beyond the owners and the players.

[@Kyleterp1]

The players should be paying the agents like in the nfl, nba, etc.

[@stephengriffith7066]

[@williamsmith9315]

[@Omnipotent-Q]

Thinking out aloud. What about if they skim/tax a certain percentage off all PL agent + transfer fees, put in a pot, then equally distribute it amongst 72 EFL clubs? 2% juice say. Then when they continue to spend big money, smaller clubs get a cut.

Who’s this mysterious cartel ? If the league didn’t want Chelsea or City and even Newcastle they would’ve stopped all three of your letters stay suspect owners from getting approved. The rules have always been loose to allow leverage bouts, oligarchs, and nation states to spend unlimited money , so how does Villa Tottenham Everton Leeds match that kind of spending? Even though they have rich individual owners.

[@backupdancer3720]

@pelseynzenze8415 FFP was triggered by Chelsea the minute Shevchenko left AC Milan to join them in 2006... That's when Serie A started screaming... Note that AC Milan and Inter Milan have different owners since 2007/FFP screams, whereas the Elkann/Agnelli dynasty still own Juventus. Barcelona and Real Madrid only started screaming after the Spanish league clamped down on La Liga clubs' spending. In short, Chelsea triggered FFP when they upset Serie A, and Serie A pulled Barcelona and Madrid only after La Liga clamped down on them.

Simon kicked the other finance guy off the show for showing him up too much😂

[@brianboyle2681]

There are 3 types of club in the premier league - those who are global brands, those who are trying to become a global brand, and those who’s ambitions will never extend that far because they just don’t have the visibility and size to ever do it. The final group are those to whom TV money is the most important. If theyre capping spending to a multiple of TV money when bigger clubs have other revenue streams, you are creating a perfect impetus for a super league once again.

[@lilbaz8073]

Do you even understand what the super league was? It was never to replace the prem. But to replace the champions league.

[@tazzatamania]

And yet the smallest clubs get the same share of TV revenues as the largest, despite the biggest 6 clubs generating about 80% of those revenues yet the smaller clubs complain that the current spending is unfair. It's not fair when you yourself are spending money that you didn't generate yet complaining about teams spending money that they actually did generate.

[@40yearoldvirgil15]

​@@tazzatamaniaa stronger bottom means a stronger league and therefore a stronger top

[@tazzatamania]

@@40yearoldvirgil15 don't disagree but there's hypocrisy all over this league. This change mostly benefits teams that are below the spending cap but with rich owners, the other, more creative teams, will carry on under declaring their spending. Newcastle must be laughing their heads off at this.

[@InvaderZim742]

sounds like you've completely missed the point on this one. How does capping spending to let's say £500m negatively affect the bottom clubs in the league? It's literally going to be the same cap for all the clubs mate. It's a multiple of the broadcast revenue of the club that finished last the season before. Squad cost control will limit the smaller clubs spendin, not the anchoring.

[@johnmtconnolly]

I love that Simon has emphasized that FFP is a protection racket. It's always been that, and the so called "big" clubs have leveraged it to their advantage at the cost of everyone else. It's disgusting. Get back to having no rules about club finances.

[@TheTaydak]

wouldn't it be easier if a owner was allowed to spend what ever they wanted as long as they could cover the spending and it wasn't leveraged against the club ? so if someone wanted to spend 500 mil of their own money that would be fine as long as it's not linked to the club and only came out of their pockets ?

[@InvaderZim742]

It won't affect villa until they grow their revenue high enough. Squad cost control measures will still limit their spending to 85% of revenue. Last financial year they made £250m. with UCL next season let's say it would be around £300m. They would still be limited to spending £255m which is well under whatever the spending cap would be. That's without Europe. It will be 70% or £210 with UEFA's squad cost control measures.

As usual those with the power to do something about it get handsomely paid, sit in their ivory towers & treat anyone that cause problems like an annoying fly & swats them aside... where there's big money to be made, inevitably the vultures & crooks will hang around to get their share & bugger off when the shoot hits the proverbial... there never will be a level playing field... one of the reason Klopp has walked away from Liverpool, he would have been an even more successful manager had it not been for City's billions... & still the authorities haven't dealt with the 100+ charges against them whilst every other club who have broken the rules have been dealt with fairly swiftly It's why we should applaud the efforts of teams like Brentford, Bournemouth, Ipswich, Exeter, Pompey in it's current state... they have tried to be clever, go their sustainability practice right & not tried to buy the dream as Pompey were once guilty of... rant over, dinner's waiting 😆

Because they care about profits and racism. Racism is why they voted against thier own interests with FFP. Lfc want it because they care about profits.

[@lilbaz8073]

Follow the logic. If it's only the biggest teams that will have to cut their spending.... Therefore it reduces the gap from big to small. It will only cut spending for the "cartel" hence utd and city voting against and city abstaining.

Agent pay is crazy in Europe compared to anywhere else in the world.

Kieran is great and his podcast the price of football. He always tells it as it is, and takes it from a fans perspective

[@jackg5966]

This is bad news for my club Villa tbh ..

[@mikem8211]

We don't want pay to win mate trust me

[@creepingbrain]

Doesn't make any difference to Villa. Now you're in Europe you have to comply with UEFA's more restrictive 70% rule. Meet the UEFA regs and you absolutely fly through the PL regs.

Newcastle would’ve won the quadruple if it wasn’t for Richard masters

[@davidknight2104]

As a Newcastle supporter this is great news it will allow us to compete

[@creepingbrain]

It wont make a difference to what you can spend

[@davidknight2104]

@creepingbrain it will and it will limit city & man u etc hense why they have voted against it, it will squeeze the gap

[@johnbowles5399]

Exactly mate. The fact Man U and City both voted against it tells me everything I need to know. Love how they're terrified by the prospect of a dominant Newcastle United. 😆 Howay the lads!

[@DavidRegaL-lw5xz]

​@@johnbowles5399the likes of Liverpool and Arsenal created ffp to deny the rest..lol

[@thusobokangsetlhapelo9152]

So all of this is just politics... These rules don't change anything but rather limit the top clubs from spending...

[@toddhellyar4167]

It's because they can't enforce FFP due to corruption, so this is another plan for the Arabs to dodge

[@AmazinJ89]

i thought it also included commercial revenue

[@mymemories925]

Man City was always inflated

[@AmazinJ89]

@@mymemories925 I'm not querying individual teams, I just thought the spend cap included TV revenue and commercial revenue

[@joek9743]

So I guess newly promoted clubs are really going to struggle to compete going forward.

[@drep9028]

So now FFP is about pulling up the draw bridge? How could so many not see that from the beginning?! 😆

[@chrishaswell4405]

We just need to make sure the likes of us and Villa can constantly finish in the top 4 and make some of these big 6 have less and less power .. i just pray we dont become the greedy bastards like the current top 6

[@kevinmyers5534]

What happens if TV money drys up?? Might as well call it the SKY PL

[@danielwang1615]

You all do realize that this spending cap will limit EPL's ability to compete with La Liga and other leagues right?

[@InvaderZim742]

Simon, you and everyone else seem to have forgotten that Chelsea's wage bill this season and going forward is far lower than the 350m or so a season from last season.

[@grsafran]

For once in a LONG time I agree with Simon.

[@LagerWeStand]

The Premiere League have agreed to think about setting up a meeting to talk about the possibility of a salary cap being considered

[@w10gooner.56]

Shame Simon wasn't a financial expert when he bankrupted crystal Palace...

[@Olympiamaniac]

You’re allowed to learn from your mistakes, he’s got first hand experience and learned the hard way, better to hear from someone like that vs all theoretical knowledge

[@kylowhen2639]

He didn't

[@hssIceland]

They keep basing the rules on club income which is THE WRONG WAY TO DO IT! Just because you have a lot of plastic fans or you abuse loopholes or simply just cheat to get insane "sponsorship deals" should not allow you to spend three or four times that of another club.

[@Sean.Ireland]

Scott McTominay duvet covers? Marcus Rashford toilet paper and i might consider it.

[@stevegold7307]

Just allow all teams to spend as much as the biggest spender in the league....

[@NotGodel]

Interventionist economics is disgusting.

[@kkiat424]

People keep saying Newcastle United wanna spend spend spend. As if they plan to spend silly crazy money for players like Chelsea, Man Utd & Man City. After the new ownership took over they made all very very sensible signing, all their signing r benefiting the team

[@user-rq4nf2zj2z]

This is American sports owners ideology. I feel sorry for the local PL fans who will now watch their ticket prices skyrocket and become unaffordable for most of the true fans. The greed will only get worse as they see the profits.

[@Mohawkmike]

Burnley owners should sponsor themselves for 300m like man city blatantly do. Sponsors linked with ownership shoild be banned

[@lee84]

Yes but not withstanding that

[@Lordofbags]

Good

[@ashleyhulme4931]

These rules are blinking stupid all clubs should have as many funds as possible to spend

[@luzuli4369]

Wait @5:00 Gary Neville says it cannot be true - no way City generate more commercial revenue than Utd. Did this guy just contradict Gary Neville?

[@rocketiain84]

OFC Man Utd and City objected given their revenues and where those revenue streams come from, but there now protected from their revenue they see as a divine guaranteed right being challenged under the current model of FFP, if Man Utd were not in the CL for 5 yrs in a row because someone else can have go , do it better and beat them to it obvs means sponsor money etc will drop so they will never want that risk. the great thing is about this proposed model is any sensible owner can have go one season and if it doesn't go as planned cut back again and not worry they will get a points deduction for having a go one year then missing out. The league will be more competitive and fun and varied and owners will still have to run clubs well to maintain long term success through managing all the commercial stuff and not just taking for granted money coming in. Simon is bang on the current model has delivered what the top clubs wanted - a free pass and easy ride to win and generate money.

[@jeffrybungle2502]

Ffp and everything else is ridiculous. Leave it alone. Stop ruining it

[@tsmay4598]

The Premier League is the most successful league in the world........in terms of money. Shame about the football and atmosphere.
