- Micah, Thierry and Jamie are not in favor of the way Todd Boehly is approaching his new colleagues in the Premier League.
- Sport
Football is more popular around the world than all the American sports combined and he wants to teach us a lesson 😂😂😂
1:57 THE WAY HENRY SAY '' WE WILL'' AND HIS BROWS . MAN I CANT STOP LAUGH I LOVE HIM EVEN MORE POST CAREER HE IS GEM
Cry, NFL > soccer
@@UTTPhakim03 no chance
I love that they didn't hold back, I agree with them 100%. Those things he wants in the PL are precisely the things I don't like about American leagues. The fact a team can be unbeaten an entire season and then get no reward for it because they lost one playoff match is ridiculous.
@@wckdaintgood lol yeah because physical outputs (and therefore recovery times) are at all comparable between 90 mins of intense football and a game of baseball 😂
@@96mrtobias I didn’t just mention baseball my guy 😂. NHL, NBA, MLB, MLS, NFL.
Isnt that how epl fans judge a team? Arsenal and Chelsea and Liverpool had amazing run for past 2 years then they slump in the end suddenly people shout they dont deserve ucl
they're europeans, bro. Here, we are not 100% yesmen... yet, like in america where you're not even allowed to think for yourself anymore, much less speak.
@@blabla-rg7ky Lol I 100% disagree with that assertion. You guys literally lock people up for being politically incorrect. There was a teacher in Ireland who was arrested for not using someone's pronouns correctly and a cop in England who faces jailtime for sharing a "racist meme" in a private group chat.
We missed you Micah...There is this thing he brings to the show. I like him
I just added a comment about this right now! Micah was the only one out of the three that actually provided a good argument against the all star game. Kudos to him. "He is arrogant" and "in Europe it doesn't work like that" are the worst arguments I have ever heard
Its his laugh.
As an American PL fan he talks for himself not for me and many other Americans who love the beautiful game!
fellow american here, Boehly is just another typical rich narcissist clown who bought chelsea, we seem to have quite a few of them here in the states.
Grow a sack, you don't have to agree with everything Europeans say about "soccer", yeah I said it SOCCER. As an American I won't Bow down to these Europeans, we can say and think what we want!
I hope our beautifull sport doesnt become like those american sports
@@terrybogars8933 more people love the NBA in Europe than people love soccer in the USA, think before you speak bozo 🗣️
Well I don’t mind some of his ideas and I’m an American and Chelsea fan myself which maybe is way too biased haha. But I’m just happy there’s a owner expressing his views. I think most owners aren’t as open as they should be and even if I don’t agree with all their points, I can understand them better as a person. For example, I really doubt he would have lied about sacking Tuchel
As Klopp said, "when would this happen?". Top 6 teams literally don't have the time, particularly in the middle of a season (which is a snowy, windy, wet Christmas, with enough Boxing Day matches already) when an All Star game would happen, like American sports. Or are we taking time away from a team's limited off-season when they're usually traveling to the US/Australia/China to make $$$?
FA Cup
Carabao Cup
Champions League / Europa League
Euros
World Cup Qualifiers
Africa Cup of Nations
etc...
And for the bottom teams, would they get representation? Who gets the TV money?
I think having a FootballAid match sort of thing with current players from the Premier League, is an interesting idea, but ... every manager would hate it. Does Pep want De Bruyne running more kms? No. Does Klopp want Salah possibly getting hurt in a nothing match? No.
Dump that useless Carabao Cup and you would have more than enough time to try new things to bring some life to a very stale and predictable product. Man City winning the league is going to become very dull real soon.
@@vinceslapchopper
All teams have great runs for a period of times.
Arsenal, Liverpool, Manchester United, Chelsea it changes all the time. Players will eventually get old and new managers will come in...
Carabao cup is also for the smaller teams which create higher revenue. All star games is not interesting
Thierry is the best pundit. He always knows what he is talking about and takes no bullshlt - and nobody can challenge him because hes the fuccing boss.
Facts and he knows what he's talking about, he played in MLS all star game and it's boring imo
Roman never spoked in public and just did his job as an owner. Our new owner should just shut up and let others do the talking.
"The PL takes a lesson" as if the most successful league in the world's most successful sport needs a 'lesson' from America. Look at Thierry's face 🙈
American sports leagues are worth more
The beautiful game is my favorite sport by far and it has the most viewership but all 3 of the top American leagues make more money than the prem with the NFL making twice as much as the prem and then some. So come on bro, throwing out “most successful” labels randomly lol
Viewership in the prem is far higher and much more international, but in terms of success the prem isn't even close to the NFL
@@jacobvandyke3219 depends how you define success. I've never watched an NFL game, couldn't give 2 💩 about baseball....if you're talking financial that's strictly one sector. The best selling car of all time is the Toyota Corolla. I'd still rather have an Aventador. But like I say, it's how you define success.
@@miykaelmentore204 football is the most popular sport on the planet. The premier league is most popular league in football. So they aren't being thrown about. This is where it's at. Go put on your cowboy hat.
The PL doesn't need "a lesson" as it's just had it's most successful 30th season. He's talking like it's struggling, the only thing that's struggling at the minute is his team, and he's finding this out pretty quick. Focus on beating Zagreb Boehly.
Yet big 6 owners thought Super League is necessary to approve it. You don't know their book
not just PL, world football has actually grown and it still is. even women's football is growing
I don’t even think Boehly knows the rules😂 of football.
What a great times we had with Abramovich and his team. Now we have this…
Chelsea is done for.
"Now we have this".....a man answering questions...wow, you clowns need to stop watching football asap 🤡💀
Yeah love a sportswashing owner who only thinks short term success.
@@starsareangels we see about that
@@frankreynolds9930 almost two decades of short term success 😅
I thought they were going to be speaking about media pundits speaking about leagues they don't know. That's the real issue we have.
It's no issue,because it doesn't affect those leagues in anyway
Yeah but they get paid to talk about them, Boehly is essentially paying to do this. It's literally the opposite.
Also, let's face it, the chances are extremely high than any pundit on TV knows more about any league they talk about than you do.
The way Todd Boehly is running his team, he is going to find out that the bottom four teams do have a little tournament it's called "The Drop"
This hit hard😂😂😂
Shut up
Ohhhh! I hope he does. Comeuppance for Chelsea and this idiot
I’d laugh if he winds up in relegation battle (never will happen) bc he probably change his mind over relegation tourny
LMAO 🤣🤣.
Todd Boehly speaks for Todd Boehly. Dont drag America into this, lol.
Todd Boehly spoke from an American mindset.
Americans will NEVER understand Football. There's no debate on this, they call the sport Soccer. End of.
@@navinmenon6931 he also is speaking from his perspective, no one else
@@navinmenon6931 not true, I definitely do not agree with tod boehly and I think a lot of people would not either. Most Americans criticize all star games for being boring.
Facts
Jamie we in the USA would love the relegation thing in the nfl
That wont happen as if it would hurt the pockets of the owner teams. Win or lose NFL teams wont face financial damages because of socialism
I can tell you’re an uneducated American. If you want to eliminate competition and create a disparity in the league by ensuring rich clubs are at the top while small spending/lesser rich clubs are “relegated”.
If you want that, then I can see why you love pro/rel model.
Otherwise, NFL/NBA model works because Small market teams like Milwaukee & Cleveland won a championship.
If there is pro/rel, you will never see small teams winning championships.
Prove me wrong.
You would but your owners won't
The Detroit Lions would be in the Fourth Division playing against the Bemidji Moose and the Fargo Sioux...
Then why don’t you lot boycott the sport until it happens? You lot excel at boycotting and canceling stuff anyway
Henry with some Avengers level sensitivity
Having watched the Premier league most of my life but grown up in Canada - I have always loved how the Prem/EFL is structured compared to North American sports - 7 game playoff series, no real glory in winning the league, etc.
With that said, I’ve seen the ‘skills competitions’ they do in the NHL and the likes, and I think that’s something players and fans could get behind. Free kick challenges, crossbar challenge, skills challenge, fastest player, etc etc. NO game, just the best showing off with little risk if injury.
No..just no!
no. the skills competitions are so lame.
It's American to Speak On a League You Don't Know... :)
if there's something PL-football should learn it's to get a host like her on TV. She's so good at getting out the best from Henry and the gang. She's respectful but doesn't back off from confronting their statements and she also gets them "to play" well with eachother. She goood
DUDE HENRY NO NEED ANYONE TO BRING BEST. GUY IS LOVELY. HIS EGO AND AROGANCY WITH LOVE AND PASSION IS BEAUTIFUL TO WATCH. I THINK SHE IS NICE FIT BUT HENRY WILL SAY FROM HEART NO MATTER WHAT OR WHO IS WITH.
A) An all-star game would be extremely hard to fit in an already congested calendar. It's not the same as the nba/nfl where they have long off-seasons. Such an idea will run these players to the ground before we know it.
B) An all-star game would basically be a testimonial. It would be played at that lethargic pace. Nobody would want to get hurt. Nobody would care who won. From an entertainment perspective, it's a terrible look.
C) Trying to apply the standards of American sport to european competitions suggests of a lack of cultural awareness/respect from him for the game in this country. His idea completely transcends football rivalries which in itself goes against the spirit of European football - something Americans unfortunately don't understand. With the exception of the WC, the Euros, Copa America, who on earth would want to watch Liverpool players alongside United players, Arsenal players alongside Tottenham players? Any true football fan would not want that in the slightest.
D) Let's get this straight. This is just blatant greed by an owner disguised as innovative thinking. I'm sure there's a general consensus among the american community that all-star games for the likes of the NFL, NHL and NBA are the biggest waste of time that serve zero purpose whatsoever other than a blatant money grab.
Its 1 game in a season. We already have useless cup like charity shield and another useless cup league cup. Its more about enterntainment and money with lot less effort. So doesnt matter the pace. Preseason was also the same. Championship already does playoffs despite having long season and they enjoy it alot. The money goes to football pyramid.
U R NOT RIGHT NBA SEASON IS 82 GAMES PL ONLY 40 GAMES. IF U INCLUDE PLAYOFF NBA ITS MORE THEN U CAN TALK BOUT CUPS IN EUROPE. BUT POINT IS , ALLSTAR GAME IS ONLY CHARITY WORTH IT. HENRY IS RIGHT CONSTRUCTED LEAGUE IS GREAT U DONT GO TO NBA AND SAY DONT DO DUNK CONTEST ANYMORE.
You can make Best team of the season but how can you make and all-star game in England which need two team to compete in this all-star game ? North vs South ? How many Premier league club in the North and in the South ?
This idea is simply an ignorrant of human being who thing he know everything and everything normal for him is normal for everyone.
I wouldn't be against it. But clearly Boehly hasn't thought the whole thing through. When the season ends players normally have some international duty to get to. That's I'm addition to the 3 or 4 breaks during the season. Players need resting periods to take time off, go on holiday. If something could be worked out whenever it might be then I'd watch a PL All star game but now it doesn't seem realistic. Besides if that happens, fans who pay money to attend the game will want to see some effort by the players and depending on when it is and players' concerns about potentially getting injured in an exhibition game we may not see proper effort by the players
Course you wouldn't, mate. You've got no real affinity to the league. If the Serie A had all the money, you'd be supporting an Italian team.
As a teenager, I used to work in a tailors charged with cleaning up and also taking trimmed pieces off for recycling. Micah's suit looks like it is made out of the trimmed pieces of the different colour and style material that I'd have to scoop off the floor.
It's 2024 now, he still doesn't prove that he can run a club
After this comment I actually believe he proposed that 4-4-3 lineup to Tuchel
7 months later, it's not difficult to believe Boehly is behind every bad decision Chelsea have made since he arrived at the club.
''FIGHT AND WIN''
I agree with Theirry! Money breeds unfortunately arrogance…one wants to implement change, role your sleeves up and work with others collectively…
Henry could teach a master class on arrogance from his own experience
@@stephenmason9527 that’s what players are supposed to do…when owners like referees become the center, something else is wrong…Henry earned his swagger as an athlete…I don’t think this is an apples to apples discussion but everything is debatable 👍🏻
@@KenDrPH how did Henry do managing Monaco? 😬😳
@@stephenmason9527 that’s why he’s doing TV now…as we both know, the best players don’t equate to best coaches…spot on Steph 👍🏻❤️⚽️
there’s now 9 american owners in the prem you would be naive to think they’re not already working with each other. they almost made the super league possible
7 months on and he still hasn't proven that he can run an EPL club 😂
American all-star games are boring as hell. Nothing at stake, absolutely nothing.
Guess u don't kno about the MLB all-star game
@gfs liny woosh...point is there's something at stake
@@MarkoRojo Which is what? Nothing at stake there but pride.
And haven't the American League won like 99% of the last 50 all star games anyway?
The All Star game is kinda stupid. But what's wrong with the relegation playoff idea? They have it in Germany
Not exactly. The two worst teams go down directly, The third worst team in 1.Bundesliga goes in a playoff with 3,4,5 of 2.Bundesliga
Everything is stupid till its not. The creation of the Premier League, a league existing outside of EFL was a stupid idea, till it wasn't.
Like it or not, PL was formed on the basis of American sports leagues. But it was ok when football was invented in May 1992.
@@JW-be8wf - That was more of a re-branding. Division One became the Premier League.
@@renejean2523 Ummm no. The Premier League exists outside of the English Football League System. The old Division 1 was under the EFL. The old Division 1 literally broke away from the EFL and created their own league called the Premier League. It wasn't rebranding. It was breaking away.
EFL is responsible for all levels of football in England except the PL.
@@renejean2523
No, premier league is a breakaway league from the English football tier system. Basically like an NBA/NFL model.
Ironic coming from English pundits who blabs bs about other leagues and the players in it
American sports suck. god, there is nothing more boring than the NFL. Baseball 40-50 years ago was great, but now it is downright stupid. Americans only want to figure out a way to fit their commercials in. They don't like English football? Good, then get lost, but don't come over here and try to ruin my league and expect me to welcome you with open arms. Boehly and his ilk are sports morons.
WHAT... Pov: o ball knowledge
@@Briansalas851 0
Two of those pundits that you insulting right now are both not just any players. One of them is part of an Arsenal Invincible era squad and the Other by the way has made Liverpool 5 times winners of the Champions league. So really man. They have every right to insult Todd. They have been in the game longer than Him. They have won titles and been even described as legends. So really their not just pundits, they are heroes of their respective clubs. And they understand deeply that the Premier league itself is a a complicated system that can not be easily altered for 1 tiny game. And they would be offended by the term used by Todd" lesson " is because they felt like he was staying that the Americans have a better game system back home than England. Of course they will be offended.
Part of the reason football has taken so long to develop in the US is this incessant need to "Americanize" it. Play-offs, a draft, the pay to play system for development, etc. I guess they were trying to cater to an American audience but it is the arrogance of this country to not follow what clearly works and has been working for decades in the rest of the world. And as an American idgaf about an all-star game in any sport, I've always thought it was a pointless concept.
If you want to eliminate competition and create a disparity in the league by ensuring rich clubs are at the top while small spending/lesser rich clubs are “relegated”.
If you want that, then I can see why you love pro/rel model.
Otherwise, NFL/NBA model works because Small market teams like Milwaukee & Cleveland won a championship.
If there is pro/rel in the NBA & NFL, you will never see small teams winning championships because rich teams can simply just spend and buy out all the talents while loaning out their young players or rubbish players.
This is a very monopolistic model and NBA & NFL is a more socialistic model
@@robert2690 A fair point when it comes to leagues with insane amounts of money invested into them and we're only seeing the wealth disparity grow each year. But in the past many leagues across Europe maintained a competitive structure where any number of teams had the opportunity to win their league. And historically in American sports championships are still dominated by big market teams with exception of the NFL.
@@marcuskittlesen3420 Even this idea falls flat. The American sports league probably offer the widest variety of champions. We’ve seen time and time again that big clubs have always dominated Europe and they go on for years. In the NBA, San Antonio became a dynasty, OKC, became a perennial contender, Cleveland won a fucking championship. That will never exist in the EPL or other football leagues across Europe, it would be impossible.
No, the reason soccer failed in the US was BECAUSE we followed the European system. That's why they implemented the drafts and other rules to prevent overspending. MLS is one of the fastest growing league btw. So yea, we did followed "what's clearly worked" and failed, hence the improvisation.
Soccer has never done well anywhere in the world where it has had competition from other sports. US, Canada, India and China are prime examples. Soccer doesn't do well when it competes with other sports.
Soccer traditions in the world are century old if not older. America jsut started this and as saturated as the American sports scene is with all the sports, the fact that soccer exists in America is a testament all by itself.
I am old enough to remember the creation of the PL. Soccer in the 1980s was horrible on and off the pitch. American sensibilities have gentrified the sport and made it better.
The NFL and NBA wishes it was as popular globally as the Premier League
Americans would be horrified if NFL and NBA was run as poorly as Europeans run football.
@@JW-be8wf dont ever compare useless nfl and more especially nba to the worlds sport again
The NFL and NBA is the reason why small teams actually have a chance at winning a championship.
Something that ALL small European club WISH they want
@@JW-be8wf
Yes, because small teams like Milwaukee and Cleveland will never win championships if it were a European model.
Imagine Giannis and lebron was signed by a rich team like NY or LA.
You see that pretty often in a European model. That’s why small European teams will never win anything.
@@robert2690 ya the Sacramento kings definitely have a chance of winning the nba championship this upcoming season
Community sheild is basically an all star game tbh
I always enjoy basketball all star games.
I agree, but American basketball is nothing like English football. I pray that the ******le boring Americans keep their boring NFL over there and leave us alone. Americans love to ruin sports. They are experts at it.
American owners are never scrutinised for the way they run English football clubs where as other owners from nationalities like Russia, China or the Arab countries such as Saudi Arabia and Qatar are under constant surveillance. The Bundesliga ownership model is way, way better as the fans are more front and centre of things and the owner is held more accountable.
I'm an American and I say leave the Premier league alone. I LOVE FOOTBALL and I always have and I don't want to see American sports ideas implemented in the Premier league. So whats gonna be his next big idea Chelsea cheerleaders? Leave it alone and stop trying to change the greatest sport on the planet.
As part of the public, it would be hilarious if united, city,liverpool and everton fans will have to cooperate together!!!!!
I don’t understand why everyone is acting like he was being preachy. He was just throwing out random ideas. It’s not like he came forward with a pitch deck and proposal for actually doing an all-Star game. And even then they were off-hand comments, and I’m not even a Chelsea supporter!
I think he is looking at it from a business perspective. He might think that these ventures would make the premier league more profitable.
Of the top 10 most expensive sports franchises, how many of them are in america?
Just compare viewership of any American sports league with the Premier League. Almost none of them come even close to the Premier League's average viewership. Debate settled.
The premiere league has its own All Star Games of sort, it's called Community Shield.
At least Boehly is giving ideas on how to protect the lower-tier leagues by creating and allocating additional revenue for it. The only FA that came up was selling Wembley and even that the pundits hated.
They'd rather watch as year by year more and more centuries old clubs fold.
To be fair, Lukaku brought up having an All-Star game before Boehly was around.
Also, as an American I think the EPL is fine as is and needs no changing (to the format at least) - Boehly doesn’t speak for me.
Lukaku is an idiot too.
Thank you, one of the few Americans with a brain.
@@firminorules Lukaku has played in the Premier league for numerous seasons before making that comment. That is the criticism of the Chelsea owner.
Not a fan of American owners but what’s so bad about an all star game? It can generate revenue and talking points. Players will have an extra motivation to work towards as qualifying for the teams may add value in time to come
culture..epl and uefa are a representation of european football culture. its a tradition, passed on for generations
All star games have no sportive reason, there’s nothing at stake. Even in america intrest in all star games has dropped significantly compared to regular league games for this reason. Let’s not forget that this is a sport first and not just entertainment. It’s not about creating ‘commercial value’, it’s about finding out which team is the best on the field.
@@footballhighlights7222 You nailed it. All the Americans in here have money on their mind, whereas the rest of us talk about the cultural impact.
Because football isn't a spectacle. There are real stakes involved. Players represent TEAMS that represent COMMUNITIES. You don't support individual players, you support a CLUB. An all-star game is a plastic, tacky, spectacle for low-effort supporters. It would only increase the risk of injuries and lower the intensity of rivalries. It's a gimmick intended to make money.
I would not mind an all star game where all 20 teams are split between two all star teams based on their rankings at the half season. Each team has to contribute at least one of their players to their designated all star team and the teams that are part of the all star team that wins the game all get awarded 3 points in the rankings. That would create drama, entertainment and a sense of purpose that is not often seen in all star games.
Lol it’s BS
An All Star game would be so good!
For what ? There is a reason all star games are generally made for benefit stuff, as a last game for a legend retiring, and years later as ceremonial stuff between seasons. They are boring, there already enought old legends doing that stuff. They dont mean anything, could make people injured, players already struggle to have time with their family. They would hurt the club culture even more as it is already. Footballers playing for different clubs, suddenly showing that they are just a pay check no cultur.
You can say I disagree with all star game idea because of A, B, C, .....
What's wrong with sharing an idea with other people? If you disagree with someone's ideas, just say it, not attack the person personally. I disagee with all star game. The all star game will make players be exposed to injuries. EPL should pay much more attention to prevent its players from injuries. EPL players already play too many games. So many good players can't play because of their injuries. I disagree with all star game idea.
Um, wut? No one is going to out arrogant Jaime Carragher.
Boehly owns 1 of the 20 teams in the league. He, quite literally, gets a vote and a say. 🙄🤦♂️
"It's Arrogant to Speak On a League You Don't Know" => Every British pundit talking about any league other than EPL.
They don’t speak about other leagues because they pale in comparison. All the best coaches and re in England whilst PSG have some guy I’ve never even heard of and before that had a failed Spurs manager lol
What's an all-star game?
I WILL LOVE TO SEE ALL STAR GAME... DAMN...THAT'S A SIGHT...IT'S ALL ABT ENTERTAINMENT ,N I LOVE THAT ATTITUDE
As an American I highly disagree with this clown !!!! Leave the Premier League Alone!!!!!
2:28🤣🤣🤣
The PL could do without the community shield.
I'm not defending Boehly but these pundits gave the following reasons:
-I don't like them
-it's Europe and it doesn't work like that
-You ask me? No
-He is arrogant
The only one that actually provided a good argument was Micah! We don't need more games, specially the prem that already has 2 League cups (Caracao and FA).
When people say American idea or Americanisation people mostly mean the top 1% of the country rather than the common people from America.
Nobody has got anything against the normal people.
The Premier League has one of the best structured leagues in the world. They don't need an All Star Games. In fact I believe American leagues like the MLS should take certain aspects from the Premier League and apply it to theirs like the concept of promotion and relegation.
Nobody in America even watches their own all stars games. It’s seen as an exhibition with no defense
the man only've been Chelsea owner for a few months yet he talked waaay more than Abramovic in all his years as Chelsea owner, and he have won a tons of trophies.
And just ignored the man, he's american, of course he made stupid statement, just forget it and move on.
I will not forget it and move on because he is trying to ruin my sport like they ruined the NFL. Americans specialize in ruining sports.
What does being American have to do with anything?
It's arrogant to think that you can tell someone what to say!
Boehly should be told what to say because he is an **** le moron with dangerous, idiotic ideas trying to ruin the one thing in my life I love. ehf him. Tell America to keep their boring nfl over there and leave us alone, **** les.
Well you've said they can't call him arrogant so you're arrogant by your own definition.
@@XhoowieX it's not arrogant to state the obvious. It is obvious Boehly is a sports idiot who hates sports
Tell him to run his club properly before saying anything
Cry, NFL > soccer
All Star Team would be full of 2-3 kits. Wouldn’t be cool.
Chelsea should try Boehly's 4-4-3 formation.
As a American I don’t want anything to be copied I prefer European football, much more interesting and eye catching. MLS is a retirement league and a league for 6 or 7th division players to get time. Prove me wrong most Americans are on bench’s in Europe :’) and not just cause of injuries
Jamie chose to speak facts that day
Media is milking a stone here
4.5 billion bucks. Money talks. Don’t you know? And thanks for the way ambram was treated. Serves us right.
Did this guy just say all star game? As a guy from the US I’m embarrassed by this guy’s comment.
British ppl legit speak on other leagues they don’t know nothing about the hypocrisy
What? What’s wrong with wanting to keep your own sport alive? An American is coming in and trying to change a British sport into being American. I think that’s the problem here.
@@shane0707 He was only proposing ideas, much like you guys consistently propose ideas for the MLS. This hypocrisy makes no sense lmao.
@@Jorge-lh6px obviously you are allowed to have your ideas, but boehly said that brits should learn from americans. as an american myself, that is embarrasing. and brits couldnt care less about the mls so i dont know where that comment came from
"Because it's stupid" would have sufficed, Thierry.
this aged well lmao
Because. We play SPORT. And amicans. Watch ENTERTAIMENT
We really don't need all-star games in football. There's an idea I do think could be fun though. Instead of doing things like the Nations League, scrap that and bring in a small continental tournament. With Europe vs. America vs. Asia vs. Africa.
You could have a team Europe with players like De Bruyne, Haaland, Van Dijk, Mbappé etc. vs. a team America with Neymay, Messi, Thiago Silva etc. vs. a team Africa with Salah, Hakimi, Mané, Koulibaly etc. vs. a team Asia with Son, Tomiyasu,
Bros! It was a 27 min interview (26 of which was very good), and all you do is to pick on the 30 seconds that you didn’t like? Wow! I don’t think his ideas would work, but why so hostile to potential improvements?
Because he’s suggesting a hostile takeover under the guise of ‘potential improvements’.
@@donaldvanvliet9039 how do you know it’s a “hostile takeover”. It was simply a suggestion
@@IIIStudder1 a ‘simple suggestion’ from a ceo who spent his life and career in financial investment and business development and is now the head of a consortium trying to break into football….as if he doesn’t already have a longterm plan to start influencing the league so that he can make as much money as he can…don’t be naive dude.
@@donaldvanvliet9039 I'm just sayin', y'all are cool with Russian oligarchs and Saudi money, but the second a dude who happens to be born in the US suggests a couple changes/additions you lose your shit and say Americans are tearing apart the fabric of the game
I’m a Chelsea fan, and I’m against all these ideas. Americanisation of our sports is a real and present danger, and should be fought against. This is Europe. We have our own culture, traditions and sporting structures. There is a deep history in our sports systems. Our clubs aren’t franchises.
It’s fools like Carragher that stop the game progressing. Let’s not forget this is a man that spits on kids and would never have been a part of any “all star” game. Let’s not also forget that week in week out the premier league loves to name “teams of the week” etc. an all-star game would be a great game, it’s a great idea.
They sounded of on Boehly?
Tbf the all star game isn't such a bad idea.
As an American fan I can say that most Americans think all star games, in any sport, are a waste of time. The different leagues are trying things every year to get viewership up because no one wants to watch that crap. Glorified exhibition games! He needs to think before opening his mouth.
Boehly's a very successful and astute businessmen and owner. There will no doubt be differences between the sporting business he is in now, and previous ventures of his. However, there will also be a lot of parallels. There will be a level of rationality to his view, even if they appear counter-intuitive.
No. Like many American team owners that buy into the Premier League, really have trouble understanding the competition, Randy Lerner famously didn't get what relegation was all about and he failed to invest in Aston Villa because he wanted to sell (upset that there is no guaranteed profits in the EPL), nobody cared to buy a team that was about to drop, which it did and Lerner lost a bundle.
@@henryhartig9593 4 of the top 6 teams are owned by americans so this is pure waffle. we’ve seen british owners run football clubs into the ground with their vast knowledge of football
lets question how these guys made their money
Not a Todd Boehly fan...because I don't know him but he was just throwing out ideas, I don't think he was trying to force 'American' ideas. Plus it was an opinion. This is over blown.
These people refer 'Football' as 'sOcCeR', who even takes them seriously XD
Get over it
The public don't enjoy the idea
If he loves 'American' sport so much, then he can go back there and leave us be. We love our European football, thank you.
Mr carragher, isn't it arrogant to speak out against a player you've seen play once or twice and judge him solely on his height?
Micah brought up fair points. I know it’s the media but Jamie and Thierry need to chill a bit it’s not that serious. Even if it’s not the best idea it’s something to break from the status quo.
I mean as two legends who have witnessed an invincible era and making it 5 times respectively for each of them, they definitely felt offended by the term" lesson" used by Todd. Like I even got Abit angry like r u saying the premier league system is broken. If so then why come, go own an NBA club instead, mate. Literally the best quote I have is from Jose Mourinho, this is football heritage. Somethings should never be change. It's good for change but for something as complicated as the premier league to alter it's system for such a small game it feels unnecessary
It's part of a much greater wave of American-led commercialization of European football. How can you not see the connection between Boehly's attitude and things like the Super League?
Chelsea are becoming a real circus act aren’t they? First they was the oil club now it’s slowly becoming a circus club. What a joke of an owner to come out with such a ridiculous statement. That would never work here. No chance
And the hard nuts of Chelsea of all people, the new owner doesn't even know his fans, what is this Bournemouth
Carragher is going to be disappointed the day the American owners of Chelsea, Man United, Arsenal and Liverpool decide to do whatever they want with the clubs they own. Maybe a tournament involving the other US owned teams like AC Milan and Roma, idk. The thing is the Premier League has accepted their money and once they are the owners there isn't much to prevent them from managing their clubs as they see fit.
People moaning like its a crime, yeah some bad ideas but least his got some and his speaking about things. Bad ideas or not more owners should have ideas of some changes. People hate change for some reason and people with ideas. Yeah I agree his ideas won't work but good on him for suggesting some. He bought a club for 2.5 billion he has a right to have his say.
As a chelsea fan I completely agree, todd has no clue what he is doing
I think a big point that’s being missed is that Boehly is pushing for more money going to the lesser clubs. Yes let’s disagree on how it’s done, but the bottom tier clubs definitely need more funds & support!
No wonder ... Chelsea IS now one of the lesser clubs. 🤣
The public don’t like the idea of an all star game actually
While we are at it, can we please eliminate offsides. Also no draws (especially boring 0-0 draws), the game should go into over time and then hand balls should be allowed then.

How is this American soccer union?
Todd Boehly is a football genius. He keeps proving it again and again.
I feel like there is no middle ground here. His ideas may not be viable but he’s thinking out side the box and is not satisfied with the status quo.
That all star game suggestion was basically suggesting the fucking European Super League all over again. God I want to throw up again. I thought we finally got over crazy changes to football.
Amazing how passionate they are about an owner suggesting an all star game but not owners committing human rights abuses
The Premier League Rules!!!! E ..f fff everything else.!!!!!
I am an American and I LOVE Premier League. I have also been a Chelsea fan for some time. I think Todd Boehly doesn't know anything about soccer, he only eats, sleeps and dreams of "dollar signs". Money! He doesn't understand the beauty of the game and apparently, who attended Chelsea Academy. It's embarrassing and I fear that before the season is over, Chelsea will be at the bottom of the PL. I hope I am wrong about this.
As bad as Todd Boehly is, is still way less bad than Gary Neville's sugar daddy Peter Lim of Meriton infamy.
Have you heard of the show « Ted Lasso »?
Then Todd Boehly is the next level.
I would love to see their face after another CL final, really greedy people. They know everything right
