I wish people would stop saying we are joining because of fear of missing out as if it means anything. Or makes it any better. We still joined it.

Bayern and Dortmund said no. PSG said no. Club had the chance to set a precedent as one of Europe’s leading clubs and we didnt. Nor did United, Arsenal and Liverpool who’s history is a huge part of English football. 

Mourinho apparently lost his job today because he refused to train the players because of Spurs decision to join the super league. 

Yes we still joined and its a shame that we did but in my view its easier to jump ship if you joined because of fomo.

Well i would think United, Arsenal and Liverpool would not object seeing as their owners are all vice chairman at esl.

Feel a bit sorry for football managers being put up to defend the actions of their clubs when the chairmen and chief execs who made the decision are too cowardly to speak about it, face questions about it or defend their stance.

Was Tuchel asked about in his Brighton press conference? Cant watch for another hour.

Tuchel says he found out Chelsea were signing up to the European Super League yesterday. Adds: “I’m here to be in the biggest competition... I trust my club to make the right decisions”

Obviously.

Had to walk the diplomatic line about it instead of taking sides - said things like "we're employees of the club, we joined to play in the hardest competitions, trust the club to make the right decisions". Also said he found out about it yesterday and hope that it won't affect the players (yet to meet them since the news came out).

Tuchel's job probably on the line so its hardly surprising he would speak positive about it.

Not sure any manager of the 12 clubs would speak against it, TBH, now that it's out there. 

But it would be interesting to hear Klopp's thoughts later.
