      shameless double standards here what nike/Adidas manufacturing kits and boots in 3rd world countries why doesn't he speak out about that.
      Also why would Germany care if Leipzig do well they've met the requirements to be in the league,they haven't pumped too much money into the club and German football is now more competitive than its ever been.
      And PSG pumping money into the French game giving many good players the opportunity to compete on the top level which is good for France and particularly the national team and now theres a brand new finalist how is that bad for football
      No wonder he's only on RTE, he's a shite pundit.

      @@pierzing.glint1sh76 good for the national team? PSG don't even play French players. The guy who scored against them tonight Coman wasn't even given a chance at PSG, he is also a French player, he leaves doesn't do much at Juve but he excelled at Bayern. PSG are no good for the French national team they even play/sign average foreign players ahead of French talent. They damaged French football. Since the takeover there have only been I think 2 other clubs who won Ligue 1 outside of PSG. Sure Lyon dominated for years as well but at least they played their French players. You're right to disagree with Richie, the way he talks about the Qataris it sounds like they don't have the right to even have a football team, Red Bull took advantage of a loophole in the rules of club ownership in Germany can hardly blame them, many clubs exist purely to make money I agree with his points though to an extent but like you said there are a lot of things he could highlight but chooses not to. but what you are saying isn't right either PSG hasn't really done anything for the french national team, they are the french club most likely to win the CL but how does that benefit the other teams in France?

      the mr you’ve only given one reason it’s bad for national team I can give you 5 ways it’s good 1) french league becomes more competitive due to increased investment in PSG. Better players better training facilities. This will extra money will filter down to the academies. France already has a great track record for producing talent. Imagine what they will do with the greater investment 2) more money in french football due to more ppl watching the better players of PSG and subsequent games in champions league. And also more money for the smaller clubs also who will benefit from greater viewership simply because they’re playing PSG in domestic competitions
      3) future foreign investment due to success of PSG model which will make the league more competitive
      4) academy of PSG honing young french talent by allowing them exposure to the worlds best players
      5) the very best french players (of which there so many) from other french clubs will be more likely to want to go to France instead of go outside as they do currently and aspire to PSG if they are successful internationally.

    If a football club viewed its responsibilities beyond that of its financial success it wouldn't be a viable business option, and would consequently be run into the ground.
    Case in point: All football clubs know that Adidas, Nike and Puma have their clothes manufactured in Xinjiang in Uighur camps, but have refused to speak out against these companies because doing so would seriously dampen the sales of their jerseys and associated items.
    A charity here or there doesn't matter if the rest of wealth is built on oppression and exploitation.

      I totally agree with this sentiment, but there is a clear scale of difference between who manufacture your clothes and having a club that literally is run by a dictatorship as a political weapon. The Neymar transfer was literally a good case in point: PSG bought him for over €222 million basically in response to the sanctions that were placed on Qatar by other middle eastern countries

    Funny how a british football expert has the nerve to complain about the commercialization of football, Manchester City i.e. is basically a hybrid of psg and rb leipzig. They got their farm clubs and scouting networks all over the world and are also financed by a guy from the Middle East
