For it to be avoided however something needs to be done about the growing indifference between the 'big' clubs and the rest. It's harming smaller clubs as the top clubs in England, and across Europe, race ahead of them and widen the gap but compete in the same leagues. Extracting those clubs and putting them in a Euro Super League will isolate them away. You could see it being a European NFL.

I think FFP is the better way to redress the balance. I don't think the fact it stops another billionaire owner making another big club is a real disadvantage.
