Completely disagree! Spain might have stricter rules but like EU fishing quotas their policing turn a blind eye.It is a fact that they have stricter controls than the proposed new PL ones. Not an opinion, or assertion, it's a fact. They have stricter rules (ie they allow a lower % of spending to revenue) and in La Liga have active monitoring, where you have to prove you can afford a transfer before the player can register, not retrospective yearly checks.
So...once we've establised that, you should be able to work out that if those stricter rules are not preventing La Liga clubs from spending top wages or fees, nor are the more lenient ones being brought into the PL.
The Premier League has more money than anyone else. It's bringing in more lenient rules than anywhere else which will allow more money to be spent than anywhere else.
What you're doing is the equivalent of a German declaring everyone will leave to drive on UK motorways because the autobahn brought in a 100mph speed limit. The new "limit" is still higher than anywhere else.
No stakeholder in the Premier League is interested in allowing a system where the Premier League loses it's position of dominance, in fact, that's their main priority.
Best leave it there. More regulation is never a good thing. Giving money away is never a good idea!
