James Corden Is Against the Super League Proposal 

Personally? No. I don't care. But, he made me care. I love people's passions, and his passion for this story spoke to me. 💖

I’m American and I care. I’ve loved the beautiful game since 2012. By the way, COME ON ARSENAL !!!!

Yeah big time.

Truee

Gotta love it!

Not just the UK. If they do indeed prohibit the top players from playing for their countries, it will permanently destroy international football and the World Cup. It will be devastating for football fans all over the world.

man please take a look outside of england for once. This is a big problem for every football fan all over europe.

Communities in the UK? Explain that to me. Do you seriously think that when Liverpool play any team outside of the elite ones that Anfield is full of scousers? Let me tell you, it isn’t. It’s full of foreigners. Football hasn’t been about fans for 20 years. 80 quid a ticket tells you that.

It’s basically speaking mandarin to a guy from Estonia

I get it bro. Its horrible. America often does this with other things. Especially our government and it destroys good things.

Even Americans (some) care about fair play, true sport. communities, fans .... and find this greed disgusting.

THE USA plays soccer!!

To be fair, it’s relevant to americans. (The pieces of poop Glazers/ Manchester United/ Tampa Bay buccaneers, Stan Kroenke, etc...)

This greedy pleb happily promoted we buy any car ripping the public off he’s a total hypocrite No respect!

It's one of the biggest news stories in the world right now. James spoke about it because his writers have a job to bring in the biggest viewer numbers and highest ratings.

@PietreADI Newsflash, America is not the world, its an empire in rapid decline.

Literally 99% won’t see this but I lost my job due to covid. They shut down all the restaurants in Cook county which then led me to loosing my apartment. I'm currently living out of my car which I try and make the best of. I've applied to a bunch of places I'm hoping to get a call back. if anyone could help me with whatever you could bc I'm needing stuff like hand warmers which I stuff my clothes at night when it's cold. Also cheap burgers/fastfood. I know times are tough for everyone these days but if you're able to help me I have paypal username: pay2winlife If you're unable to help I totally understand.

He dint care about getting their attention. He had a platform to put it forward n he just went head on. Respect.

Did he have an audience though. At this point in time, it was likely that he had to do this without an audience because of the state of the pandemic at the time

@@metrofilmer8894 there was no audience but yeh he got the message through.

Look I am that typical American who doesn’t follow the sport of football, doesn’t know the first thing about it.

He caused me to be generally emotionally invested in this situation and the future of the sport and how this will effect the fans of the sport because seriously there are no other type of sport fans on the planet that go as hard for their teams and players as football fans.

This video made me understand better what the heck is going on with this topic

The problem is like a lot of people he is jumping to the whole its only about Greed aspect having totally ignored what the governing body for Football in Europe with the backing of the European League operators and each countries governing body have been trying to do to make them more money off the back of the big clubs who without their revenues for the Champions league would be lucky if its 20% of what it currently is. They choose to ignore the feedback of the clubs and only backed down on their plans to basically create a UEFA super league WHEN rumours about a breakaway emerged and their compromise reform isn't much better which the clubs told them and they ignored. There is a reason why the whole ESL process seems so badly planned and that's because while there is some self-interest it's not just that, its them losing faith in UEFA having the best interests of the game and this being the only card they had to play to either make UEFA listen or break UEFA's hold over European Football

Ikr. In the US each major city gets a team and they play eachother and everyone in that city support their team

Nope. But it could easily become that way. The richest 10 NFL teams could secede from the league and tell the rest to whither and die. Who cares, right?

I'm pretty sure he understands that, really not that complicated honestly.

@@dangler1907 Americans won't ever get it.The NFL is just like the "Super League" with 32 instead of 20 teams.. What you are talking about is if teams from "Super League" broke off again from the "Super League" to form the "Super Super League". Let me explain it for you. The NFL has 32 teams and nothing else no relegation, basically nothing. Europe has around 100.000 teams in football. From really low tier backyard football to the 1013 professional clubs. And the beauty is that any of those 100.000 clubs, literally any of them, if they are good enough through time and ranking up could someday get promoted to a league which grants them professional status and perhaps someday even win the champions league (which is if you don't know the 32 top teams in Europe from the past season from all countries.) with the only requirement that they play good enough. That's what happens when you have such a perfect system. And what those guys tried is to ruin it with an American-like franchise based closed league where teams can't get relegated or promoted, thus making the dream of your low tier backyard club competing with them someday non existent. It's what this sport is all about. The dream if you and your mates are good enough, you can push your team, your local community team perhaps, to the highest heights. That's what football is about. That's what they tried to ruin. That's what you don't get. And please unless you guys form actual leagues with promotion/relegation don't ever mistake your entertainment frenchises with actual sports or competitions.

He could have basically just compared it to the NFL or NBA but he's tryna weasel his way in to getting the audience to agree with him that its bad - which they won't do if they realize its just like American sports which they know and love.

@@SirTibzy True. With any "sports" really even football in the US. Didn't hear about MLS Second division, did you? 😂 Btw I have a great idea for them if they someday decide to make it an actual sport and create a second division. They should call it mLS (Minor League Soccer) 😂

Well there are no teams "left out of the party" in US leagues if that is what you mean. There is no relegation but just about all US/Canadian sports leagues do implements rules to try and keep the playing field as even as possible. For example, salary caps, drafts, revenue sharing, etc. Relegation wouldnt work because where would teams get relegated to?

I don't get them, how do you have a league with no relegation? And the worse team of the season gets to pick the best player of universities all over the country, they won't get it and never will

Nope

Exactly ahahaha

Don’t know why people think Americans don’t care for the sport or what’s going on because we do. You all would be surprised we are just as devastated as the European fans. Tons of us are born into families who support teams in the premier league, la liga, serie a the same way you all do. The only difference is you guys are privileged enough to live in the cities where the stadiums are and get to be apart of the atmosphere and us Americans for the most part are not.

And those are the exact people who are ruining it's history so they can turn it into some super bowl nightmare

We do care. Just so you know. The Americans who are fans are super fans because we don't get to live with the sport in our daily lives. What we get from the sport we seek on our own. We thirst for it. To see a sport no matter what kind, where they take from what actually made it what it is and ruin the spirit of it is a disgrace. It's a shame what these owners are doing. In some part it's up to the players to put some love of the game ahead of money as well. The superstars of the sport need to stand up for their fans. Choose not to play for teams that do this and then see how long it lasts.

Not exactly an appropriate comparison since the MLB, just like the now defunct Super League, is a closed club where only the invited teams can play in. In world football (except the MLS) thanks to the relegation/promotion system ANY team could potentially rise to the top, win their country’s top tier competition and, if they’re in Europe, enter the Champions’ League.

@@mohammedhussain6749 well, maybe u might not fully understand the implications but it's okay!

@@mohammedhussain6749 Your loss, bro. It's a passion thing.

Search the Bundesliga 50+1 Rule, that would be why.

Not really a choice, they basically couldn't due to the fans owning 51% of the club

@@chriswyatt9869 they/we still could have, they simply refused to. 50+1 has nothing to do with it. Simply refused because they knew what would have happened. I truly believe there would have been riots in Dortmund as example.

@@danielw.1989 No they couldn’t have

Well they chose to introduce the 50+1 rule... so they saw this coming ...

florentino and laporta arent owners They wouldn't have gotten the money

+laporta was doing what the socios had voted for while florentino was just trying to put more money in the club, both of them wouldve gotten about 5% of the total money

while the others would have gotten more than 80%

@@sudeendawadi8787 The socios hadn't voted yet and as far as I'm aware,still haven't.Barcelona's entry into the Super League depends on the socios voting it.

Ex-players including Viera, Bergkamp and Thierry are trying to buy Arsenal back now with the guy that owns Spotify better than the Kroenkes but be nice if it ended up in the hands of the players alone.

And every football fan anywhere ! We exist as Americans also :) it was very well put.

You're absolutely right. Need to edit that. ☝️

Just speak for yourself, thanks

I'm so glad fans and UEFA killed that "League" idea right away

Wow, I would never have imagined that the carefully crafted masterplan devised by such a powerful group of unbelievably wealthy and morally bankrupt co-conspirators in order to enrich themselves even further at the expense of countless smaller clubs and the millions of fans who love and support them, after all the arrogant statements with which we were told that this was final and not negotiable, would be immediately and totally *wrecked* less than 3 days after it was unveiled, thanks to an unprecedented backlash from the public, the media and the relevant institutiions all across Europe and even beyond....

Yes, there are many people here in America that absolutely understand and are just as upset as everyone else. Everyone of these comments are just bashing Americans as if we are all ignorant and don't care and nothing could be further from the truth. I'm a huge Leicester city fan and there is a huge amount of football fans in America and not just of teams like man city and Liverpool. But fans of Sunderland, blackpool, tranmere, and on and on and we are just as passionate about the sport as anyone

@@Logic3227 great to hear

@@Logic3227 thank you. I'm from Europe but I completely understand that you can't do Americans dirty like this. Yes, the NFL, NBA etc have from my perspective a 'weird' system, but that doesn't mean that Americans aren't competitive/passionate. Look at the Olympics for example. I also don't understand why people can't enjoy both American football and football. I like both competitions, but the NFL/super league idea is not meant to be for 'our' football. What certainly didn't help is that the leading founders of the league were probably the American owners (Liverpool, man United, Arsenal), led by money wolve Perez from Real. I think the other clubs were basically forced to join (although some Italians are most of the time against anything that has to do with an European governing organ, UEFA in this case :) ) I'm happy to be a Bayern supporter, because they would never join. Even if the board would want it, the 50+1% rule will prevent them. I think the American billionaire owners have a huge share in this Super League fiasco, but that doesn't mean Americans are the issue...

He doesn’t even understand what he’s talking about tho

@@Logic3227 thank u m8 but i still dont like the american billionares in football

Britain is literally furious.

@@sunseeker9581 I’m from Scotland, it’s the whole of Europe that are furious 😂

@@James10kGames true I just mentioned Britain as James is British and so am I

@@sunseeker9581 wasn’t having a go at you 👍🏼 was just saying the problem is seen from all across Europe, it’s a massive problem for football.

@@James10kGames not only European, but the whole football community are furious mate.

It's not even about fandoms anymore. I love ManU to the death but Glazers sucked the soul out of it. There is no Busby babes, no 99, no 2008. There is only the brand. The franchise. Man United doesn’t exist anymore. And It’s the same for the rest.

Hah!!! Liverpool fans switching to Leeds United ...... 10 Pinocchios!

Any non-Leeds fans cheering for Leeds is the biggest sign! Absolutely bonkers

@@sogalstar not many, but a couple did. When I said switching fandoms I meant in general. If you check the twitter comments a whole lot of Liverpool fans were switching to different clubs.

I have loved Arsenal for 15 years. I'm ready to burn all of my kits and sweaters.

FIFA & UEFA are either completely corrupt or not corrupt at all. And we all know which one it is. They can't let the money go on club's hand. That's why they are playing with fans sentiment.

Is he british?

@@berk3318 yes he is

I though he sounded more British than ever!

@@berk3318 No. I think he's Egyptian.

@Los Zetas then how 🏈 this called football if it's played with hand, the original name is rugby anyway.

🥰🥰🥰🥰

📈📈📈📈

@@mHANIF-xl3rx Not true. All those sports were called football originally. They all have the same ancestor(s) in the UK around the 13th century. It was called football because it is played on "foot", contrary to polo for instance that is played on horse. And in the Middle Age, lots of variants were played without kicking the ball with feet.

Didn't last long. Talking about his weight loss, he called a football a "soccer field". Sycophantic oaf that he is

Agreed.

What a sad reflection on life, if people love their football team more than their wives. By the way football is a religion to some.

@@wackypeace1135 football is my religion the only religion I need

That phrase is from the film El secreto de sus ojos

@@wackypeace1135 we do love them for longer. I'm 24 and have been a fan of Benfica 24 years. I love this club, it's the only thing that I know will NEVER change and it's ludicrious to think of supporting a different team! I might wake up in 10 years and decide to change my gender, even, but my club? Nah man, that's for life

@@Jptm26 Benfica caralho!!! Seriously now, football ID a religion. A family of sorts, when we go to our stadium we feel like we are going home and meet our loved ones. It's undescribable. I've tried to explain this to a lot of my American friends and it's hard to grasp, the relationship you folks have with sports couldn't be more different.

you mean the lack of one lmao

Fr. Plenty of us Americans love the game but it sucks there was none in the audience.

Football global mate. we all understand.. well maybe not Americas but they still use imperial system and whatever the f is fahrenheit so they dont count.

Not only Europeans, it's the rest of the world

My thoughts exactly. If only this outrage could start something much bigger...

Yeah i felt this too.

When James said the league was made for the Rich to get richer I was like- Hmmm sounds like the same people who who would be behind the illuminati 🤔

Yes, exactly this. Let’s hope that enough people are woken up to this.

James is like Ellen. He's horrible to everyone off camera

@@marioluigi9599 where do you get that information?

This made me cry... this is sad :( :( I don't know nothing about football - but totally understood everything he explained.

@PietreADI and yet here you are🤣 There’s a reason it’s the worlds number one sport

@PietreADI football/soccer laughing at the top the sports list 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Is this brave? It's his own show, and since he's in the States, he's unlikely to get any real backlash.

The Super League is a ridiculous idea and I’m glad it’s been axed but it’s hardly what you’d describe as brave. Not like the Glazers or FSG are demanding to have James Corden killed. They probably will never see this

Not brave at all man..

@@candacen7779 well, I wouldn't call it brave necessarily but one of the billionaires he's slamming probably owns part of the media company he's working for. Half the billionaires in question are American anyways

Football here in England is massive nearly everyone supports a club and most schools,colleges and universities have teams. More people go to a Football game then go to church. England lives and breathes Football it's in our blood. So happy that most teams have pulled out. He's right it would ended Football the way we know and love.

did the Super League get canceled???

@@thickthanos2897 yea it’s not happening. 12 teams who where in on it ended up backing out

Why don't you watch a different sport? I know you Indians only watch cricket

@@arithmetic7105 Indians?? 😂😂 where are Indians even mentioned here??

@@arithmetic7105 in Asia, football is a famous sport.

The game would get much better with the SuperLeague, having quality matches week in and out will make it even more competitive and harder, increasing the overall quality

@the black box, your wrong, the magic will disappear, it will become stale, boring, old, there will be no excitement left after these billionaires are through with their plans.

@@amarmallhi3997 what magic? The format should have a few changes though i agree but overall it's going to get much better and will help football a lot. Dortmund reached the 2013 ucl final and the next season they sold half of their team bc they needed money and haven't been able to win anything anymore, is this the magic you re talking about ? Uefa is just playing the victim they dont care about anything other than money

@@blackbox1024 No, they will ruin what it means to actually compete. These are not the best teams. Only the clubs with most money. I am a Real Madrid fan but to me this will be the end of my support for the club. I hope Madrid and Barca fans unite against this disgusting idea. We have to honor the history the clubs share. This is an insult to the fans and to the history of every club joining this shitty league

@@MasterNservant you do know you are just supporting uefa and fifa monopoly on the game.. if someone can break their corrupt grip on football it is the biggest and richest club

Yes. Death and destruction at the hands of these greedy, soulless owners.

This makes me want to cry, I wanted to go live in Spain and somehow work in proximity to Real Madrid on the medical staff now after listening to Florentino Pérez I feel like I’d be working for evil.

I'm a Man United fan and It's sad to this is happening. THESE STUPID OWNERS R JUST STEALING MONEY, HISTORY AND FANS.

Rip sir Bobby robson

The history of totnum

James is a West Ham fan, so sure he enjoyed doing that. Anyway, well done James for tryin to show Americans about our passion for 'soccer' You should have mentioned the names 'Glazier' though, to bring it home who was one of those largely responsible,

Ye I’m a Tottenham fan it’s um difficult to be a Tottenham fan

Hurts so much. They will be so good but something always screws them up no matter what. Watch us bottle our cup final on sunday

Ahhhh feels good to be be a gooner

And yeah you know i think you can insert Mourinho name there maybe. I mean he got fired because of this. Tottenham owner is worst than glazer to be honest

@@aliefgifranmuhammad7615 how about we first find out what went on and then give people credit? Mourinho has been known to not get along that welll with quite a number of people, as is the case for many of the most gifted talents both on and off the field, so chances are that despite the suspicious timing this might have been unrelated... we should find out soon anyway

It's probably more to do with the government's response - they were willing to change the laws to prohibit the clubs operating.

@@kadensmike8190 Yes, officials in the U.K. and France said they would do everything in their power to thwart the superleague, but neither country could just have prohibited the clubs from operating. Boris Johnson accused the 12 teams of forming a 'cartel' which suggests that fairness-in-business laws might have been invoked, the same that forbid gas companies from secretly agreeing not to sell below a certain price, and prevent huge corporations from buying and integrating all their competitors. In terms of new legislation, a number of countries are considering a law like Germany has, with a so called 50+1 rule, which "states that, in order to obtain a license to compete in the Bundesliga, a club must own at least 50% +1 of its shares". This would protect clubs from ever being controlled by an external investor.

@@aliefgifranmuhammad7615 Done!

That is an excellent analogy. It would basically mean the creation of a country club at the expense of other clubs and programs. That is why so many people (coaches and players in those clubs) have stood up against that cartel. Dreams are not something that can nor should be bought.

I really wish James had someone on the team to make comparisons like that whilst he was talking. He was so passionate but the audience just didn't care which was heartbreaking. I really wish America would pay more attention to the rest of the world events, it feels like the minute James talks about Europe or further, America shoves their fingers in their ears.

...wait an American analogy... I thought Americans are clueless... they just don’t get it... they just don’t care...🤦‍♀️

Hope you get into the champions league, that would be amazing

Hopefully hammers get into the champions league... always great to see clubs in the champions league
