We're not though really, are we. City, Chelsea, Liverpool, Madrid, barca, Munich, Italian clubs having their charity shield abroad. Every club does it. Some just make more money doing it.

It will just continue to its inevitable conclusion unless laws are changed or demand drops via a backlash from fans. It's a reflection of the world at large. This shit can only happen with consent of the majority.

To be fair to van gaal, he made them make this a much shorter tour than usual, with fewer commercial demands on the players.

The money being quoted is insanity. It's no £#%&!ing wonder we're wrapped up in this Chinese farce.
Absolutely reckless in the pursuit of cash.
Disgusting.

The only enjoyment I get out of Football these days is when I talk to my Dad about old games or when I take my Nephew down the park with a ball.

The glazers aren't going to stop chasing income. Not having to spend it on top players and their wages, and the fans being happy with that, would suit them fine. Owners and the authorities aren't going to change the path they're on unless it's forced on them by government or fans. The last thing any powerful minority want is organised mass movements opposing them.

Does this mean we can't win the International Champions Cup?

That's shit. Hope you can get something back off the club.

Welcome to China though. Backhanders all over the shop. Last time we played in Beijing I only got a ticket as a mate worked at Unesco.

Here's hoping you enjoy Beijing regardless.

Juan's got this

You move with the times or get left behind.

As a 6 year old I used to use white soot from the weeks bombings to mark the lines on the pitch before every game. As a reward I was allowed to have a special sasuage made out of the same pigs bladder as the ball

If you want to watch MANCHESTER United get on a £#%&!ing plane to Manchester and go to their home ground (they've only been there 106 years after all)

Can be a clown at times but he has pretty much nailed this. It was an unmitigated disaster . Might as well have said "£#%&! off China, we are an English club & we will play only in Europe , we don't want to come there, but I suppose because we need your money we will have to, but don't expect us to enjoy it or actually play like we mean it "

Ibrahimovich must be gutted. Had a place next to his "Swedish male athlete" trophy ready.
