Leicester vs United on last matchday could be the decider, although Leicester's recent form has been pretty underwhelming. | ||

united has southampton, crystal palace, west ham and leicester left chelsea has norwich, liverpool and wolverhampton left imo judging by post covid-performance this gives something like 10-12 expected points for united, 4-6 for chelsea and 2-3 for leicester. Leicester's only wins the past 10 matches are against Aston Villa (whom are 1-2-7 previous 10) and Crystal Palace (1-0-5 post covid). Chelsea has been decent after the break, but aside from the game against Norwich are up against fierce competition. | ||

Shame about today’s court ruling. City aside it does set a rather worrying precedent. | ||

The way to fix football is to add a salary cap, it is the simplest and fairest way. Max wage for 11 players is 100k a week then 5 players 80k and below etc etc (not these exact but you get where im going) and it fixes it there and then. Transfer fees can be huge if they want but you can't stack your squad full of the best players because they will go and earn max money at another club fine still. Would make the champions league stupidly competitive overnight. | ||

The English rugby union league has a salary cap of some kind and this preceded Brexit etc. I’m not sure if it is a European labour law issue so much as no league wants to implement one and see its top talent migrate to other top leagues. I guess having to be proven to be solvent to play within a competition is legal, and that could be tied to salaries. On the other hand tying salary caps to revenue doesn’t really do anything to even the playing field as the existing big boys have a lot more to play with as it is. | ||
