If you support big team, you dont mind but as a lower team supporter, you want to be able to feel sometimes you can win somethings.

It’s hard to support lower team but when you are able to win something (cup, place in european compétition…) oh boy, what à pleasure.

For me, the downside is that you cant enjoy generationnal players for more than 2 years. They will go to stronger side quickly. Franchise player is one thing I envy in the USA. In Europe very good players will always end on the same club during their prime : real, barca, bayern, psg, italian top 3, england top 5. They will sometime be benched as soon as they are transfered…

Platini & Henry or Papin

9th level of french football as an adult ( of 13). The last one before regional level.

Won a low level cup named “coupe Bazataki” and made the assist of the last minute equalizer that gave us the opportunity to win the match in overtime. Good times.

France- Italia, euro final 2000.

France score on the last action of the match and then win in overtime. Two nice goals too.

I think italian wont have the same opinion…

Toulouse and AC milan, leipzig and salzbourg all play in european football despite having the same owners. They can definetly if they are willing to change their administrative structure.
