Considering how everyone laughs at how poor other leagues are and how the premier league money has taken over europe, I find Neville’s reaction to players going somewhere with even more money, frankly, hilarious.
Good point mate. I'd extend that to the major European clubs' money taking over other confederations' clubs as well. Europe's been the centre of club football for decades. It would be good to see they face some competition...
PL has stripped first the Football League then all leagues in Europe for years of its best assets and now it’s starting to happen to the PL all of a sudden it’s wrong. Welcome to everyone else’s world Gary and Jamie.

footballers. They got great offers, why not go to Saudi Arabia, where there is no income tax, his entire salary is owned by him and his family. And he lives in free housing, free food, and free transportation. Who is the crazy person who refuses?
For ages Europe has been paying outrageous salaries for African, Arab, Brazilian.. etc, tempting them to leave their leagues. But now when suddenly Arabs are doing the same thing to Europe.. something needs to be done!!!

Why is it all about who's jealous about what or tit for tat rubbish? It's about protecting the Premier League we all love - the best league in the world. Should it not be protected or people have concerns then? Just because Triple X thinks its deserved and dislikes England?

The LIV merged with PGA tour and the main clause they inserted was that the PGA couldn't say disparaging remarks about Saudi , the less people who can slag them off the better
Yea that’s what the whole premise of the accusation against Saudi is. Like of course Newcastle can Scoot FFP rules if all of a sudden they can sell Sean Longstaff for £50m to al whoever.
@@howstupidcanyoube100if Conor Gallagher is worth £40m-£50m then why isn't Sean Longstaff worth at least that anyway? He's had a great couple of seasons and before Bruce there was interest from Man U for £22m - he's came on a lot since then

Simon definitely learns a new big word every night to use the next day at work, no one uses this language in any walk of life because there’s no need for it😀
It just further shows how detached Simon is from everyday people. Not sure why many of the people (that don't understand the vocabulary he uses) laud him with little if any understanding if what he's actually saying! Plenty of 'morons' on this channel! 😂😂😂
"I like Jamie. Not so enamoured with Gary". You lost me there to be honest. The man spat at a young girl for goodness sake. It's amazing what people are allowed to get away with these days in some people's eyes.
So people whined when Chelsea spent all that money and put them on such long contracts. Now they are clearing players out to make space for the ones they bought and they’re whining again? The premier league asked for written explanations and Chelsea provided them. Case closed.
Honestly English clubs have bullied every other league with their financial means. That was never a problem to any English pundit or mentioned in the media. For instance West Ham won the conference league and everybody in England praised them. Reality is that their budget is 5 to 10 times the opponents they played. Not mentioned once... You English fans just can't handle that there is an even bigger player at the table now
Its true. The league is corrupt. Unless your owner owns 2 or more clubs you get left behind. Chelsea can buy whoever they want and if they flop just move then on to Saudi Chelsea. Glazers, Kroenke etc should buy an Arab team to move the Maguires, Pepes and Sanchos too.
Players don't just go wherever their owners want to sell them. Players have to want to go to said club in the firstplace. If a player doesn't want to go to Saudi, they won't.
@@JimDuggan-tq2lvThey don't go because they want to go to Saudi. They go for the money. You only live once earn that money but let's not sugar coat it. I doubt any footballer in the world (besides a Saudi) dreamed of playing in Saudi when started thier journey to be a professional footballer.
I have to give some credit to Sam here, the moment he didn't know what a word or phrase or concept was he immediately interjected and asked for clarification. You see too many interviewers/hosts just stay silent and let the person keep on talking when the listening audience could be just as confused.
He would be correct to question what Saudi Arabia was doing if he ever had anything to say about the impact on global football of the insane spending in England.
The players in their prime will not go there! Players love money, but the fans and football heritage in Europe is worth it's weight and gold. Players that are hitting 30's and want to cash in will go, who cares?
I believe if a Saudi club offered £50m for a Salford player he would reject it on principle. He's not playing to the gallery. He loves the beautiful game.
Totally agree with Simon on this one. No one suggests the riches of the premier league should be blocked from attracting the best players from less wealthy leagues across the world, no one complains about Messi earning a MILLION a WEEK in Miami.
@@callumlynn1431 Exactly. As if there should be any morals in sport. Ridiculous. I mean, it's none of our business who the Saudis murder. As long as they keep chucking money at NUFC they can murder who they want eh Callum? Can I get a why aye?
I like listening to Simon as he always has an intelligent perspective on any subject, but he's also argumentative and never answers a question with a straight answer. He'll bark and always devalue an opposing opinion, but never actually picks a side. He did it at least 5 times in this vid. He detracts from the question or point with long words he learned from his thesaurus, and belittles people in his usual aggressive manor. But let's not forget he lost his fortune through bad choices, he doesn't know everything
Bullying?😂😂 you really think clubs are crying in a corner because a premier league club bought their player for millions of euros? They take advantage of it. Saudi isn’t bullying anyone but using an endless pot of government/royal money for reputation/influence and everything else that comes under sportswashing
Saudi won the U17 world cup in 1989 before Brazil, France or England ever did. That generation made it to the 1994 world cup and got to the 2nd round. Remember that wonder goal? The biggest surprise for me, is that it has not happened sooner.
It reminds me of when big players went to America in the 70’s. There will be no eyes on the product in the long-term, but it the short-term, a few people might watch a few games. But once people realise that there’s no real jeopardy, they’ll quickly lose interest.
Simon Jordan if there's a bigger mic for you to talk to us, a bigger network should come for you. This is from someone that half of the time, disagrees with you 👍🏾
Why? If a Saudi club was paying 75m for Ziyech, I could understand the problem😂 ironic that he took 7m off the Qatar media but spent months slagging them off..

Truth and nothing but the truth by the legend Simon Jordan sir!!!🏋♂️
Simon Jordan for the win
Top LAD Proper Clobber ✊
He's so full of it.
If the Saudis wanted to pay £50m for Scott mctominay then Neville wouldn't care 🤷🏻♂️
Apotropaic = Intended to ward off evil. 😂😂😂😂
@@neilgoodyer9606not the only one! Badly butchered the spelling of it too before google could help me
@@neilgoodyer9606 it sounded too good
The LIV merged with PGA tour and the main clause they inserted was that the PGA couldn't say disparaging remarks about Saudi , the less people who can slag them off the better
His concern is the link Saudi has to clubs like Chelsea, as shareholders, they are able, possibly, to manipulate transfers to circumnavigate rules.
Yea that’s what the whole premise of the accusation against Saudi is. Like of course Newcastle can Scoot FFP rules if all of a sudden they can sell Sean Longstaff for £50m to al whoever.
Thanks for that.
@@howstupidcanyoube100if Conor Gallagher is worth £40m-£50m then why isn't Sean Longstaff worth at least that anyway? He's had a great couple of seasons and before Bruce there was interest from Man U for £22m - he's came on a lot since then
The Saudi's invested in Clearlake 16 years ago long before Clearlake bought Chelsea.
@@sampowell6240 telegraph artical has already came out saying premier league as already looked in to all of this and see nothing wrong.
Gary neville wasnt bothered about saudi money during the world cup!
Some people can't leave chelsea alone its funny😂
You know what's funny... If someone talked about Tottenham, Liverpool, and UTD being owned by Jews and how they were sucking the clubs dry that would be anti semitic... but arabs are also are also semite 😂
Hate us cos they ain't us
@@Stinkmeaner420 Honestly I'm a little less Peed off at Boehly at this rate, man has done a deal with the Arabs that's straight from a Bond movie, ridiculous spending last season, to now we're getting rid of half our squad, maybe we'll get top 8 now...
Oil is running out so they are looking at other avenues to make money.
Simon is a walking Wikipedia 😮, he has so much knowledge
He's an idiot's idea of an intelligent person. No offence.
But is he right
Can't you see that he's an utter, hypocritical, dollars for donuts, tosser?
word of the day is 'apotropaic'. who knew talksport was an educational channel as well 😁
Makes me miss Roman even more
A man basically called a terrorist and lambasted by part of the biggest terrorist group on the planet..
I’d love a Simon gary debate,Simon would destroy him.
Gary needs to get of his high horse tho he will have to be careful as his pockets are full of money from Qatar
The guy who took Qatari money to commentate at the world cup is virtue signalling again
The chuckle brothers😂😂😂
for some reason i can listen to simon all bloody day
Simon definitely learns a new big word every night to use the next day at work, no one uses this language in any walk of life because there’s no need for it😀
It just further shows how detached Simon is from everyday people. Not sure why many of the people (that don't understand the vocabulary he uses) laud him with little if any understanding if what he's actually saying! Plenty of 'morons' on this channel! 😂😂😂
I love listening to Simon. But his personal vendettas are becoming tiring to listen to. You don’t like Gary Neville, we get it.
"I like Jamie. Not so enamoured with Gary". You lost me there to be honest. The man spat at a young girl for goodness sake. It's amazing what people are allowed to get away with these days in some people's eyes.
£100million+ transfer (Declan Rice)
£500,000+ per week (Haaland)
^ that’s ok though 🤡
Haaland not on £500k
I like Jim but i think other hosts get the best out of Simon
Apotropaic is a banging word
Simon in his element here... better not get in his way!
So people whined when Chelsea spent all that money and put them on such long contracts. Now they are clearing players out to make space for the ones they bought and they’re whining again? The premier league asked for written explanations and Chelsea provided them. Case closed.
"Popular Hobby Horse" a particular highlight of this video 😂
I do like Simon but imagine working with him!
You’d be put in your box every day
I’m gonna have to google that one too 😂😂
Simon let’s his emotions get in the way when it comes to Neville and Hearn. They could say the sky is blue and he won’t fully agree
The skies are grey where I am...lol
Just a bit cringe listening to an ex footballer who is actually in life good at nothing but football, talk about what needs to be done…
@@sebastiandalessandro4221 I'm no Neville fan but he's a business owner and TV presenter too, he's obviously not stupid.
Better than a failed football club owner telling us what needs to be done
Honestly English clubs have bullied every other league with their financial means. That was never a problem to any English pundit or mentioned in the media.
For instance West Ham won the conference league and everybody in England praised them. Reality is that their budget is 5 to 10 times the opponents they played. Not mentioned once...
You English fans just can't handle that there is an even bigger player at the table now
Everyone just read the telegraph artical please. They tried it though.
Its true. The league is corrupt. Unless your owner owns 2 or more clubs you get left behind. Chelsea can buy whoever they want and if they flop just move then on to Saudi Chelsea.
Glazers, Kroenke etc should buy an Arab team to move the Maguires, Pepes and Sanchos too.
Players don't just go wherever their owners want to sell them. Players have to want to go to said club in the firstplace. If a player doesn't want to go to Saudi, they won't.
@@JimDuggan-tq2lvThey don't go because they want to go to Saudi. They go for the money. You only live once earn that money but let's not sugar coat it. I doubt any footballer in the world (besides a Saudi) dreamed of playing in Saudi when started thier journey to be a professional footballer.
Garry not even care about Simon .. your views are nothing to him .. he don't even reply or care
Can we put an embargo on Gary Neville?
I have to give some credit to Sam here, the moment he didn't know what a word or phrase or concept was he immediately interjected and asked for clarification. You see too many interviewers/hosts just stay silent and let the person keep on talking when the listening audience could be just as confused.
Neville is correct to at least ask the question
Here's a question for Neville......"Would you be happy for the Glazer's to sell Man Utd to Arabs?"
I'll wait.
no hes not lol
@@phildemetriou440o, he wouldn't be. He's said as much.
Not quite the gotcha you think it is.
He would be correct to question what Saudi Arabia was doing if he ever had anything to say about the impact on global football of the insane spending in England.
@@SKDjinn Exactly mate.
Which one's Hinge, and which one is Bracket ?
The players in their prime will not go there! Players love money, but the fans and football heritage in Europe is worth it's weight and gold.
Players that are hitting 30's and want to cash in will go, who cares?
I believe if a Saudi club offered £50m for a Salford player he would reject it on principle. He's not playing to the gallery. He loves the beautiful game.
you sir are naive. Neville is a businessman first. Don't doubt it
Does gary intend to run as a labour candidate
Totally agree with Simon on this one. No one suggests the riches of the premier league should be blocked from attracting the best players from less wealthy leagues across the world, no one complains about Messi earning a MILLION a WEEK in Miami.
As a Saudi... I'm loving these English tantrums 😂
Ridiculous mate - loving it as well, sat here happily in Newcastle
Ahhhh special friends ❤
@@callumlynn1431 Exactly. As if there should be any morals in sport. Ridiculous. I mean, it's none of our business who the Saudis murder. As long as they keep chucking money at NUFC they can murder who they want eh Callum? Can I get a why aye?
Simon Jordan's forte, really insightful stuff
Bitter people. No issue with premier lesgue weakening rest of European league s. 😂last 15 years
That's how football works, do you want foreign players banned or something?
That's not the issue here. Obviously.
No business discourages investment
The man who go payed to be on Bein sports 😂😂😂
Payed
I like listening to Simon as he always has an intelligent perspective on any subject, but he's also argumentative and never answers a question with a straight answer. He'll bark and always devalue an opposing opinion, but never actually picks a side. He did it at least 5 times in this vid. He detracts from the question or point with long words he learned from his thesaurus, and belittles people in his usual aggressive manor. But let's not forget he lost his fortune through bad choices, he doesn't know everything
Simon and his big words😂😂
Invidious, preposterous, unequivocal, perpetuity
Old tat😂
Simon is far too intelligent and knowledgable for Sam. Embarrassing display by Matterface, considering he is hosting the programme.
Simon Jordan just owned this interview
The premier league have been bullying other leagues on spending???????
Bullying?😂😂 you really think clubs are crying in a corner because a premier league club bought their player for millions of euros? They take advantage of it. Saudi isn’t bullying anyone but using an endless pot of government/royal money for reputation/influence and everything else that comes under sportswashing
The sheer audacity for British pundits complaining that another country is buying up their talent when they did the exact same. Thing is disgusting
Saudi won the U17 world cup in 1989 before Brazil, France or England ever did. That generation made it to the 1994 world cup and got to the 2nd round. Remember that wonder goal? The biggest surprise for me, is that it has not happened sooner.
Always good to see Neville get knocked down a peg or two. Well in, Simon.
likening carragher n neville to the chuckle brothers is spot on.
Simon on top form i agree with everything said
It reminds me of when big players went to America in the 70’s. There will be no eyes on the product in the long-term, but it the short-term, a few people might watch a few games. But once people realise that there’s no real jeopardy, they’ll quickly lose interest.
It’s okay when we do it, not when they do it.
Simon Jordan if there's a bigger mic for you to talk to us, a bigger network should come for you. This is from someone that half of the time, disagrees with you 👍🏾
They didn't get the super league in Europe, so they're making one in their own country.
You will not hear ' I dont know the answer to that' from Simon.
It's not like the players going to Saudi are for 100m+ they're decent comparable amounts for players with years to go
Why? If a Saudi club was paying 75m for Ziyech, I could understand the problem😂 ironic that he took 7m off the Qatar media but spent months slagging them off..
