which is why it won't happen

we already have a euro super league in the form of the champs league, and the fans would rather watch man u v man city than a champs league group stage match - as has been seen in italy with attendances of about 10,000 for some champs league games. won't happen.

as for individual TV deals, it hasn't happened it the US and IMO it won't happen here. Who, apart from Man U fans, would pay a subscription to watch MUTV as well as ChelseaTV, ArsenalTV etc - audiences would be small compared with Sky and advertising revenue would therefore be fairly small.

Just can't see it happening - lots of scaremongering going on.
