European Super League: ESL is boon or curse to football world? Check out


The European Super League announcement has sent the football world into a tizzy. We let get to the point whether it is a Boon or Curse to football.
The breakaway league formed by Europe’s 12 biggest clubs has been announced to rival the UEFA Champions League.
Is the league beneficial or a curse to the football world?
A complete curse for the beautiful game
The league includes Europe’s 12 top sides. The biggest blunder from a footballer’s prospect as it completely breaks away and destroys the premise of open competition.
It is a cynical project driven by money and greed in the interest of a few affecting many.
One of the biggest reasons why both the Champions League and Europa League are a success is so that smaller clubs can fight their way to the top through performance on the pitch.
ImageThe feature of European club competition was that there was no monopoly of any team.
Whereas, the European Super league breaks away from the traditional football pyramid model for just a few more bucks.
Footballers across have condemned this action and has repeated their claims through social media handles in voicing their opinions against the unjust.
ImageSecondly, footballers dream their way to the top with effort and heart and do not want to replace that with the greed for money.
FIFA and UEFA have set the marker by the announcement that. These 12 clubs announced will not be able to participate in the UEFA Champions League or any other UEFA related event (EUROS).
FIFA has announced that players who participate in this league are not eligible to play for their national colors.
The biggest regret for the footballers at hand is that. They did not inform by the respective clubs that such a project was in the making.
ImageThe open competition aspect is the reason football is being encouraged by one and all. To work your way to the top is the secret to success.
The European Super League closes the door to open competition as clubs which are not financially strong are hit the most.
ImageIt is a big event and a party like atmosphere for not-so financially strong teams to play a Manchester United, Real Madrid, and this could be completely snatched away from them with the Super League.
Thirdly, the founding clubs will remain as always and do not get ‘relegated’ from the competition.
This is completely against the spirit of football where relegation matters. Without relegation, watching big clubs consistently does not make sense.
It is the small clubs which surprise the top sides by their performances which counts for in the beautiful game.
ImageLastly, the European Super League does not keep the interest of fans at all. The top sides face each other on a regular basis in this league hence it does not add any excitement for the fans.
The cut throat competition amongst each other followed by a drawn-top side clash is what counts.
ImageAfter all, Football without its fans lacks passion as they are the lifeblood and soul of the match. The fans hold an important stakeholders’ position in the game and without them, it lacks significance.
We hope the footballers come together and take a stance otherwise this could get real messy.
