UEFA with FFP weren't doing the same thing? Even the premier league with FFP, the top 6 doesn't allow challengers anymore and never will do but it was always hidden behind other bodies at least now they are honest about it.
Well, FFP did not work did it. Hence this. As for the top 6, that term was only coined when United fell off really. And as for top 6
this year, its looking far from traditional.
There are always challengers, I'd say maybe top 2 or 3 is the issue. But that's the case with every single league in Europe. There are no radical changes in competitors from season to season, and it's an unrealistic expectation if anything.
The main gripe for a lot of giants here is the likes of City, Chelsea, PSG, and now the Redbull clubs have easily entered the fray with little to no issues by investing well and wisely, while FFP has been unable to protect them or hold these new parties accountable.
This is just the answer to new money, create something so big and exclusive that everybody with money eats, and no one from the so called cartel gets left out either. Exclusive membership like, it's actually worse than FFP.
