Even though the pro league failed, Saudi Arabia had the right idea by bulking up a few big clubs instead of just 1. In football, a rising tide doesn't lift all boats, PSG being overwhelmingly good ironically makes Ligue 1 less interesting. Just look at the Bayernsliga, or increasingly City in the PL to see how one big club can ruin the competition.
Amazing point. Dutch, Portugal, France. Turkey, all of these countries…they are food for the fodder. Spain and England. And occasionally Bayern in Germany. Competition needs to be revamped everywhere
taxes is the answer, mbappe cost 160M € per year in taxes to PSG
REST IN PEACE GOAT!
Answer: 💶💶💶. And Real Madrid: Glory 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆
And whatabout city? just 1 win
French league going through what African national teams have endured and still do 😅
Yes it's all about Money .
Best players of the WEEED
MONEY, MONEY, MONEY🤑🤑🤑🤑thats why😂
Honestly the French League just has no pedigree. Even a mediocre leagues like the Eredivisie has 13 international trophies (6 CL) by 3 different clubs. The last CL win is also for the Eredivisie with Ajax in '95. It's pretty staggering how a League that's supposed to be better has just no showings at all.
Why you gotta speak the truth Thierry. It's horrible to be a flyover competition. There's legitimate talents in the Eredivisie, but they just move on to big money in England and Spain after like a year or two.
In reality the French clubs are performing pretty much in line with what you'd expect given the finances.
What a stupid question to ask lmao
I mean like Thierry said, it’s obviously money.
The average annual salary in Ligue 1 (minus PSG) is about €1m … that’s about €20k per week.
There are players in the English Championship on £20k a week. The average is around £10k a week.
In the Premier League the average is £60k a week.
So if a player has a choice to stay in France at anywhere other than PSG, or move to a Premier League club and earn £40k-£60k then OF COURSE they’re gonna make that move, a professional football career lasts around 16-18 years on average, and if you can guarantee yourself £50k a week for 5 years then you’d be stupid not to take it and stay earning £20k a week
France was always more of a rugby country probably until the 80’s
Carragher's accent is too funny.
The only team in France that has the ability to hang on to players is psg. Other clubs are forced to let their best talents leave
Why is there more money in England, Titi? Because it's a bigger and more successful league.
One of the issues about this, it's because there's not really very much enough of competition in France, like it's in Germany, Spain, and England, having competition it, brings more talent and elevates level and power for all this teams and that's why a lot of the French teams are always falling short in the competition.
Sometimes not every country has good national teams and clubs, if we look at good national teams with bad leagues, look at Croatia (WC runs), Argentina and Brazil, France is one of the best National teams in Europe as they have won every single trophy possible to them (WC, EURO, UNL, Confederations Cup, etc…), however it's league, Ligue 1 was overshadowed by others since they have just won the UCL only once in 1993 (Marseille), and that was during a contreversy scandal between Tapie, Goetalhs, and the club (Olympique de Marseille), France definitely fits this category.
Then we look at the other way around, England, Germany, Spain, Italy, all of them have some of the world's biggest clubs, but have bad national teams
-England haven't win a single trophy since 1967
-Germany since 2018 is trash
-Spain just ain't the same since 2012 (golden generation)
-Italy who didn't qualify for the World Cup twice
Those 4 countries came to mind
I hope this helps!
Since Bosman, we can’t generally get far. Look at the 1990s.
Players will follow the money it’s always been that way
portugal have 4 champions league. holland have 4?5? even romania have 1. soo why his talking about premier league or spain clubs ? loool
There are no Top french players. 😮😅
You know what i mean 😏
