I quite like the sound of an all star game tbh.
Replace the charity shield with it and itād be a massive improvement of a spectacle.

Itād be crap, just like the majority of ābig gamesā, where two teams often just cancel each other out and neither go for the jugular. Imagine the anger fans would have if your best player got injured because they went in for a 50-50.

Whatās the difference if it happened in a friendly or the charity shield? It happens. As a replacement for the charity shield I think itād be interesting. And if done inventively could get more younger fans into the game as you could make it like FIFA and give them a bit of involvement with selections of squads.

Why am I picturing the North team wearing flat caps and smoking pipes while the South wear waistcoats and pocket watches

We have a pre season and Klopp doesn't dictate despite his attempts to. The Charity Shield a bit of a nothing game these days and this would be a far better idea

If the charity shield is so meaningless, then letās just get rid of it and give the players one less game to deal with.

Because he has ideas on how to improve/change things? It's an interesting idea but I can see why clubs wouldn't want to release their players for it.

The Americans come from a background where sports are run for the welfare of the competition - he will have to learn football is run for the benefit of select individual clubs.

Klopp is funny. Wave a big fat cheque in front of him or his club for a chance to manage in the all star game and he'd be all over it like a cheap suit.
Money rules this game and has done for a long time. They are all principled until their pockets are lined.
I've got no respect for any of them.

Can see both points of view here As an extra match its not going to happen, probably, but as a potentially superior replacement for the Charity Sheild it sounds like a plan

Didn't see that We had that, sort of, when play offs came in Can remember Charlton beating Leeds That was sides from different divisions mind They have relegation play offs in Germany, erm... Maybe worth a look?

Where would the North start and the South end?
Stafford?
Birmingham?
Northampton?
Could you not have it on the eve of the FA Cup Final (so no players from those teams could take part a bit like the NFL all star game)
Got to be honest it would be a tippy tappy exhibition match with nobody really arsed who won - not a chance of it raising Ā£200mill - no doubt exorbitant ticket prices, ill thought out travel plans for fans and somehow the PL/FA would make a profit from TV revenue that wouldnt make it down to grassroots....
Dont mind him pitching ideas though, at least they are fresh and not regurgitating the '39th game' bollocks.
(PS - on Promotion/Relegation playoffs - the bottom 3 of the upper league dont deserve the opportunity to stop up - the existing playoffs are already brilliant and draw in more TV viewers than a lot of Prem games!)

Heās on it this morning for sure although not wrong in my opinion Not saying itās the greatest idea ever but letās be honest the objection is because Liverpool players etc may have an extra game. The fact they are funded to support a squad of a zillion highly paid superstars and should therefore be able to doesnāt matter at all.

An unsurprisingly shit idea from a fat American who is new to the game and has no real interest apart from making money for himself. In no way would this benefit 'the footballing pyramid'.
