Indeed, this thread is a spin off from the Blackpool one, so I assumed its on the low side, but if the wage cap is a 100k per week, it could work. However, will this save the smaller teams, I don't know. A 50k/week wage cap will make the EPL very weak


Anyone at man city or Chelsea on £100k a week would be a pauper that seems a reasonable figure and would even up the premiership and in turn give the lower teams a better chance in the FA cup etc

I blame Jimmy Hill!of course there should be a wage cap and a signing on fee cap.it should be rolled out world wide.the way football teams are funded now makes a mockery of it all.the fair play rule is a joke.

Any cap would have to be enforced by Fifa to make it work. A team wage cap could be a better option, that way you can still push the boat out for a big player, but it just means you have to compromise elsewhere. It would stop teams like Madrid, Barca, City, and Chelsea hording top players

I suppose the team wage is enforced in a crude way by FFP

FFP is poorly framed, and it will only prevent other teams from replacing the current elite. A wage cap for all UEFA teams sounds like a great idea.

None of this will happen as the big clubs have too much power through their success and would never want to lose that competitive advantage through a levelling of the leagues. If they are unhappy, they can break up and do their own leagues.
