Mourinho&Guardiola

Guardiola asked about Mourinho comments on Amazon documentary: "That's true. You cannot buy class."

I think it's obvious whose team is a class outfit right now and whose isn't.

Here in Edinburgh, it seems like everyone either supports Man Utd or that's their English team.  

 

A horrible club who strangely attract people with no affiliation with the City of Manchester whatsoever.  Mind you, Old Trafford isn't in the city itself.  

 

I don't like Mourinho or Guardiola.  But hopefully the rags have another dreary season and win nothing.

The EPL is a poor imitation of what football means to me. Throw £120m at Wick Academy every year and they'd have a good crack at winning the SPL.  What are we supposed to do, abandon our own clubs and coalesce into half a dozen mega clubs that compete for everything ... but only on tv. It makes me sick to see kids running around our village with Man City, Barcelona and Bayern shirts. I'd rather follow the fortunes of a real football club like Port Vale or Portsmouth than any Manchester club.

What is happening in football is an extension of the wider society and the consequences of decades of neo-liberal economics.

 

ie. the distribution of wealth (and therefore power) is getting heavily skewed upwards.
