Players unions will never agree to this. A cap always results in players being paid way under their value and more money going into the rich owners pockets. And owners investing as little as they can into a team since it will always be an automatic profit machine.

mediocer in 3uropean competitions PL teams will get slapped and ultimately no elite player would want to play in PL and other counteries would gain more fans and more views. may be Saudi league would get huge advantage cz of this.

This isn't the solution that fans think it is. It just means that the financial restriction will, on occasion, push an elite talent from the English domestic sphere. If you are the type of fan that only cares about your side, that doesn't want your hated rival to potentially pull in a galactico-type of talent, you may think this is a step forward. But if you want to be entertained by the best the planet has to offer, this is nothing more than just a way for club ownership to keep costs in line. As such, this kind of restriction potentially pushes a big name with big tricks n' flicks to the other domestic leagues. On top of that, if you're a Utd supporter, you should ask Toronto Maple Leaf fans or New York Yankee fans if they like their historic sides not being able to spend bank, money spent to capitalize on their heritage in the sport, to attract the best. Long stretches between championships is the reality for those colossal sporting brands. Now, shareholders, stakeholders and the Richie Riches that sit on club boxes love salary caps, even when it can lead to their colours being uncompetitive at times, unable to cover themselves in the glory to the same degree that their supporter bases became accustom to. Those rich biatches just get richer without the freedom allowed, encouraged, in many cases demanded by the match-going public, to spend mad money on the latest transfer period darling or generational talent. Look, I get it. If you hate Manchester City and their new place in the Prem and Europe, you're probably grasping at straws, desperate for anything to stem the tide of silverware and kit top badges that celebrates their success, putting you and your rooting interests in the mud. But for as much as a salary cap will prevent City from signing another talent for Pep to mesh into his team, whether that player is of starting eleven rating or just squad depth to help him manage the vagaries of many competitions and injury/form probability, a salary cap will inhibit your chosen side from also fielding a team with championship aspirations. But at least City won't win, right? But if you put your jealously to the side for a moment, if you take the 30,000 foot planview that takes the heat out of rivalries and the malice out of a supporter bases' list-of-grievances, this kind of labour cost tactic won't do you and your treasured badge any favours either. Basically, the rich who own football teams and sit on boards and don't sing on the terraces just got richer, because now they don't have to compete financially, to invest the money they fleace out of you with ever higher ticket and concession prices, with ever more pricey kits and travel schedules that pushes your side beyond the measure of the typical football fan. This is hardly a win for fans or supporters of the various clubs of England. A salary cap is singularly about the lining of pockets for those who use football as an economic status symbol. Real Madrid and Barcelona are laughing at you, England. And the owners and boards of the Engish Premier League are laughing as well. All the way to the bleedin' bank.

MLB, NFL, NBA, NHL all have salary caps. MLB & NBA teams pay a luxury tax if over limit. However, Man City and its issues are the elephant in the room. This will be interesting.

Difference is , US & CA are two countries with USA dictating terms to Canada. In European Football , there are 5 major football countries , more or less equal , that would have to agree on a salary cap , UK , ES , IT , DE , FR --- highly unlikely ! Plus the Spanish and Italians are master crooks - the Madrid region even passed a singular law in expectance of the Mbappé transfer -- they reduced the top tax rate down to some small number to keep attracting the world's best talent and have them pay less tax on their wages. Unless these 5 European countries would agree on a common salary , accounting & tax structure for pro sports millionaire players -- this is never going to work.

@@tk80mufa5 Each league should be able to negotiate on their own salary caps. As long as players unions can be involved, there could be a reasonable way to continuously look at wage increases while keeping clubs profitable. It makes no sense that teams have to hail mary for an entire season with signings only to have to sell everyone the year after. Having caps might actually slow down player movement and create household names again for certain clubs.

Apple is actually giving pressure to MLS to spend more. They want as many eyeballs on their platform as possible and are threatening to pull back on some of their investments to MLS if they do not increase the pool. That was one of the major reasons why the owners came to a vote a few weeks ago to make some changes to the infrastructure.

Relegation makes this difficult though and I LIKE RELEGATION.

If TSLA stock doubles every year then they do have infinity money. SO... let's examine the CORE ISSUES.

Cap would be stupid, then it's just another NFL, NBA style league, and the Bayerns, Madrids, PSGs etc. will outspend them and snap up all the best players and leave the PL in the dust.

So when Luton makes the 1st division the cap goes down? Eh.

They’ll probably have a soft cap like the NBA. You can go past it but have to pay a luxury tax. $4 tax for every dollar spent over the cap.

And this is a never ending debate. And let's go back to where this all started... Willie Mays. Where Mays was a star player before anyone got paid AT ALL! And Mays used to literally just ask the owner for money and the owner would give it to him, to the point that it turned into the business that sport's are today. BUT LETS EXAMINE WHERE WE CAME FROM...

I think people underestimate how much the promotion/relegation system enforces the top-heavy nature of most leagues. (There are other benefits to pro/rel, don't get me wrong, and closed systems like MLS have major weaknesses as well, but I'm well convinced that it's a contributing factor to how non-competitive most leagues are) But the lack of equity in how much teams are able to spend on players is a VASTLY bigger contributor to the top-heavy nature of the game.

Settle down......... Bundesliga has a 51/50 law unlike the other leagues....... Bayern München has a great winning culture especially in the past few decades ..... Other teams opt to sell their players off and treat profits over winning which affects the balance of the tables...... Good to see propositions of meritocracy over he who has the most coins wins....... One x

What about the teams that don't spend just pocket the money? They're ok with putting mediocre teams out there and don't care about results or fans.

While this is an interesting topic, why did it have to get so combative between the two?

And Seb's laughing but he's not... bc what is Herc's salary? 250k/year? Stevie and Craig pry deserve 300k. And then Skip and Stephan A think that they deserve 3m/year. So it's getting clown man.

I don't know if a salary cap is the answer. I think the answer is to PRESSURE THE STAR PLAYERS to share their incomes. Until the rest of the locker room presses Harry Kane for his 200m dollar contract, we won't see change. And that requires DISSENT. And that's half of the issue. Everyone is curbing dissent lately and we need dissent. Especially with the owners.
