Soccer (or football!) is at war! The billionaire owners of 12 of the leading teams across Europe thought they had launched the much-vaunted European Super League on Sunday night. Is this the beginning of the NFL-isation of the beautiful game? Or does fan-power smash the elites? Listen in to find out!
Anand & Vlad butt heads in a "friendly" fight over whether the European Super League is good for soccer. In a botched attempt to launch a new, closed American-style franchise-model for the sport, the owners of Europe's top teams are given a painful lesson in who really has the power in football -- the fans!
Joining us to provide the US perspective is a friend of the podcast, Profession Marc Edelman. He weighs in on the battle between the teams and UEFA and makes an accurate prediction!
