that opinion must be public-relations stuff only.. and it was a public-motivational speech before the final.

Black part is all about marketing.

Add filters to make the grass look greener (literally what they do), have English commentators that love what they're watching or at least pretend well enough, have stadiums that look full even if they're not, instead of lowering the crowd volume so that we can hear the speakers, embrace it (ie the French do this well). The PL is doing the opposite, they're adding artificial noise to make stadiums sound better.


And hype your shit. Get people involved with Fantasy football stuff, do deals with popular brands and video games etc.


It's all about marketing. And if the English can fool the Scots that they're part of the same nation, they can fool anyone that their league is the best thing you'll watch on television. They've been doing that since 2001 and half of it was still Serie B level.
According to the data available on transfermarket, in 98% of all EPL games this season the full stadium capacity was used. So yeah faking that on TV is not what makes the difference here.

I was talking about what Italy needs to do.

PL games attendance rate is growing, it wasn't the same in the 90s or even early 2000s.

Either way, people in the PL attend games because television made it a cool thing to do. Casual fans are outpriced anyway, so it's a tourist or corporate experience these days.

Oh fuck me and us and everyone.


Lol. RIP to that man.

On a more serious note, though, doesn't Zhang have to say this? For two reasons at least. One being that, right now, the club has a CL Final to be prepared for. Off-the-field noise of any sort just needs to not be there. Secondly, it doesn't help leverage in any sale if they're outright saying "yeah, the clock is running out on us defaulting and we're not getting any kind of leeway on our loan". Oaktree doesn't want us, I get it, the only good thing about a default to Oaktree would be is that we'd be out of Suning and China's hands and we would be getting sold not terribly soon thereafter...obviously any period of time under Oaktree ownership probably wouldn't be great for its own reasons but it's also not like we're thriving as it is right now either.

Hopefully we're hearing some different noise in the coming weeks once we're officially in the off-season.

This guy seems like an attention whore. Tired of seeing his tweets already tbh.
Or this is already done and they are just trying to keep a lid on it before the final.

Don't have one.
I’m struggling to see what their endgame here
The endgame is to be here until the wheels fall off. When he doesn't want to sell right now when he literally has to go to other people and ask for money to run the club than you can only expect the wheel fallin scenario, it's the only logical conclusion.

The only positive thing in all of this is that they are ambitious in a sense of not being content for battling it out only for top four but wanting to win trophies along the way, so this whole process is much less painful than it would be if we had owners who would be content with just cl places.

We blame Zhang and have wet dreams about a rich owner but reality is that the difference between Serie A broadcasting value in comparison to Premier League is too high to compete against.
