1. Will owners have a salary/dividend cap as well? Otherwise all this does is take money out of the players’ pockets and into the shareholders’

2. how much do premier league give grass roots football ,answer not much

3. Needed salary caps a decade ago. Most money wins the league it's as simple as that.

4. Salary cap is a terrible idea. The Prem has become the best (and highest viewed) league in the world because the broadcast rights are split evenly between all the clubs (not the case in other leagues). This has meant traditional mid-table clubs (Brighton, West Ham, Villa) are able to outspend (and pay higher wages) than every European club (apart from PSG, Real Madrid and Bayern Munich). A salary cap – doesn't mean competitive balance in England, it means a loss in competitiveness (to other leagues) who don't have that cap on player wages.

5. People are forgetting England had a salary cap in 1901 that was a abolished in 1970 and took till the end of 1990s to recover from where a wages were at the same level as the other big leagues in Europe. It was a disaster and meant England had the lowest wages of Western Europe for almost century. Belgium League players were getting more money than top division English players in the 1990. This mean hardly any top foreign players wanted to play in England and all the best English went abroad in the 1970, 1980s and 1990s. Don’t be fooled this is the American owners trying to manipulate British envy culture, to introduce salary caps, so more of the clubs profits got to them and not improving the team. The Premier League clubs have revenue that is more than all of La Liga, Serie A and Bundesliga combined. Salah and KDB are the highest paid Premier League players on 350k per week. Real Madrid and Barcelona have 8 players earning more than that. Kane earns more than that in the Bundesliga, so does Mbappe for PSG and Messi in MLS and 20 Saudi League players. The Premier League doesn’t have a high salary problem. It is American owners trying to freeze salaries so they cream off the extra money Premier League clubs for themselves, like that what happens to American sports franchises, where owners earn billions from the team profits and only give a small fraction to the players. I would rather see the Premier League revenue on the pitch and not in the pocket of greedy America owners.

6. Well, at least we can all rely on the Saudis to cap their wages too because they REALLY care about the game of football and the fans.

7. only can achieve something like that with a european super league. no point in doing it for one league but other leagues in europe don't do it

8. What about caps on presenters wages?

9. The guy on the right has a big nose. Bigger than Harry Kane's and that is saying something

10. First thing fifa needs to do is ban state ownership. Whats next… North Korea to buy Luton town

11. Or get a boring job like rest of us have .it dont help when pm is married to welfy wife .we need balance so no person can not eat or warmtheir home

12. Not sure entertaiment is the issue not just football .when you got goverment personel bending things to money in there pocket .football is best sport in world yes i think footballers are over payed and stead buying 5 or 6 fancy cars save money for when they retire

13. The problem I've seen over the years with how crazy player wages/contracts are is how disconnected the players are from the fans. How can someone on 200k a week relate to anyone on a normal salary. Forget rivalries, forget history, club competition etc the insanely high paid footballers only relate to one another, everything else is below their status. Which is why lower league football is actually really enjoyable, the players are more connected to the club and the fans, you see the passion pouring out of them. Money really is toxic in football, it rules every decision.

14. The irony. Gary Neville’s Salford voted against salary caps in league 1&2

15. If football was going to have a salary cap it had to be done 30 years ago. It’s far to late now, players, owners and fans won’t accept it now.
    The big difference between American sports and football is the number of leagues and organisations, US sports only have one major competition per sport football has a league in every country and competition between them as well as international football. The American modal simply doesn’t work in football.

16. I would love the salary cap. Works so well in the US Sports. ⚽️ is getting killed by this money

17. Cap the value of players then. No footballer should cost more than £150 million.
    It is not a good idea to cap salaries. Players will move to Saudi Arabia.

18. No way I'm taking a phuking pay cut. Yacht already on order.

19. Wage cap wont happen, it will cause more harm to the EPL than the good it will do.

20. Football especially at the highest level is financially eating itself alive. People have become greedy, but a reality check is needed
