Oh wait...Platini already did this Wink

I'm convinced he's a worse ***t than Blatter ever was. Sepp was really only in it for himself, but because he had all the power, he was able to dictate to the corporates to some extent, and he had some little bit of sense of football history. Not voting for a WC in Qatar for example. 

Platini & Infantino couldn't wait to sell out to the corporates & will happily mess about with every single league or tournament to keep them happy, with even less regard for fans than Blatter had. Sepp told the corporates what to do (and made sure they passed him some envelopes while on their way to doing it) but the corporates are dictating to the new FIFA/UEFA breed what to do. 

Might start a petition to get Sepp reinstated, he was a football man like us, and in comparison to these jokers, a man of the people.

I can't see it being anything other than a big team going over. It's hardly going to be Levante vs Eibar 
 
I'd agree with MC
Real/Barca/Atletico are the power 3 in Spain, all sell out their stadium each week with huge attendances and viewing figures. Can't see them giving up a home game.

Any of those teams away games will be the biggest 3 attendances of that team's season, so those teams would kick up a fuss too.

My guess is it'll be a home game of Deportivo, Malaga, Sociadad, with Bilbao, Valencia, Betis as the away team
Two of those are in the Second division LOL

Was at Barcelona v Alaves tonight . They parked the bus from minutes one . Dembele looks like has loads of Potential but still a bit raw . Ter Stegan and nothing to two but chipping the on rushing striker was a highlight the game. And well Messi , they don’t call him the GOAT for no reason two class goals and a free kick off the cross bar .

Fair play to the players, they will probably be talked out of it with a cut of the profits but, for now, they are doing the right thing.

SD Huesca Clap

Smallest team to ever play in La Liga. Win their opening game against Eibar, 2-0 down away to Athletico and brings it back to 2-2 with 1 of the best volleys you'll ever see.

Holy sh*t LOL

The big 3 won’t give up a home game but they won’t have a problem playing one of the smaller teams away in a different country.

The smaller team will get a big pay day so it will suit them as well.

The real losers are the local fans of the smaller team. The owners will say the extra revenue justifies it.

Girona v Barcelona in Miami end of Jan.

Girona season tickets can either get 40% discount on season ticket or flights and accommodation for the match.

This could be a historic match.

Read the other day that Pique and Busquets will refuse to play in this game, I hope some other players join them. Some coincidence that two Pro Catalan teams are involved.

The whole situation is farcical.

Atleti, Real and Barca all having dodgy starts to the season. Could be an interesting few months ahead.

I see Silva is on fire for Sevilla after his horror time at Milan. Could be a sneaky bet for La Liga top scorer, surely big odds. Would be the first time in over a decade that a Barca or Real player wasn't top scorer I'd imagine if he did it. Suarez probably the only one to break the Messi Ronaldo monopoly in the past decade? Times they are a changin.
