Does anyone actually believe those numbers for PSG? I'm sure their average attendance is probably only about 40k.
They really are the French equivalent of Man City.
80,000 portions of chipsTheir owner probably goes wild in the club shop every match day between ordering 400,000 litres of orange juice and 80,000 portions of chips.
We now have no excuse time to win things. Over to you Daniel.
But it's relative, if the market adjusts so that transfer fees and wages are lower we won't have to spend more but will still have an advantage because we have higher ratio we are able to spend of earned income. He may well do what you say and then his glee club will have absolutely no place left to hide. One way or other we get end game.Thing that I don't get is why people aren't expecting Levy to adjust spending down just because other clubs have to for FFP.
If the market spends less, the ENIC/Levy model will 100% adjust down as well and we will still want to avoid spending on a top tier wage bracket for players.

Not sure what this is based on.
The model of the club.
It's even more nuanced than that because in fairness to all it may not even be on ENIC because for their plan to work it depends on the billion to one shot that the EPL and UEFA actually rigorously enforced FFP/PSR and don't bottle it .End game is optmistic.
There would still be people in here celebrating 5th with the 7th highest wage bracket or something similar. Claiming it's a huge underdog achievement against giants that we shouldn't feel entitled to compete with.

Tbf their plan is also to not go bust
I'm not sure the same could be said of Everton's owners, for example, as much as their fans want to paint us as being part of some evil controlling 'cartel'
