KAZZAM Posted April 11, 2023 Share Posted April 11, 2023 Wonder how much we're getting payed for this? 2-3 mill? I mean might aswell get payed for a preseason but clearly a Premier league money making scheme so we must be getting payed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KAZZAM Posted April 11, 2023 Share Posted April 11, 2023 Newcastle surprising participants tbh, you'd assume they'd be off to play in the middle east and possibly be cheesing FFP with inflated participation fees. Much like Man City will likely do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post ejs1111 Posted April 11, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted April 11, 2023 I've already pre-registered for this event. I live about 45min outside of DC in the suburbs. Its about a 1hr metro ride to FedEx field for me. The summerseries website says that the July 30th match is being advertised and sold as a doubleheader. So the tickets will be for both Villa v Brentford at noon then Chelsea v Fulham at 245p EST. I'm really looking forward to seeing AVFC live. I have not seen them live since they were in the States and played in Philadelphia about 10yrs ago. Tickets go on sale 4/25 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't get too bothered about the results of a quick Google that probably don't even apply to the forthcoming tournament but are more likely a generalisation of previous Premier League tours in the U.S.A. Look at the wording @villa4europe found. To me it reads that typically if 'top' Premier League teams play another 'top' Premier League team they'll typically earn a couple of million but if a more standard Prem team (let's say outside the $ky 6) plays an MLS team they'll usually earn around 500k. That doesn't sound like it's refering to the Premier League tournament in the U.S. this summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeyp102 Posted April 12, 2023 Share Posted April 12, 2023 I’m not a big fan of playing premier league teams in friendlies. We should be playing other teams who we don’t play regularly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If a tournament was 8 teams in 2 groups, and 1 team from the prem in each group, fair enough. But what we are doing for me is overkill. I also think that it just gives them more ammunition for the infamous 39th game being played abroad (or something of that ilk). “Well we’re able to get 80k in a stadium abroad watch Leeds Vs Brighton during the summer, so it makes sense we take a league game there as well” Edited April 12, 2023 by mikeyp102 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your concern could be valid. I'm with you, hoping these sort of tournaments, inevitable as they are, don't lead to a 39th league game or even some kind of world league. Not in my lifetime - please! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I swore never to return after my last visit (it's a dump) but for Villa I'll make the exception. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
