The new deal is 5.14 billion($7.34 billion) pounds over the next 3 seasons, and also they get $166 million per year from nbc. Are more top stars like Bale, Lewandowski,Zlatan from Bayern, Real Madrid, Barcelona and PSG gonna move to the BPL? Are guys that would be on the 2nd teams for those teams gonna now flock to the 2nd tier teams in england like Southampton,Newcastle, Aston Villa

Well. Lower table PL clubs are going to be paying inflated arse salaries to avg to below average players and then aren't going to be able to dump them when they they realize they aren't up to par (at least without subsidizing wages). Going to be more important than ever to recruit the right guys. Misses for the big hitters will have the lower table to fall back on.

I mean, you kinda started seeing that this past summer window with Yohan Cabaye moving to Crystal Palace and Xherdan Shaqiri going to Stoke City.

PL teams will now be charged a king's ransom for every player they try to purchase (much more so than now), thus redistributing some of the wealth to the continent. Don't think it will have too much of an impact on their performances in Europe, any improvement in European competition will come from Pep and Klopp carrying the league.

Shaqiri's performances at not only Inter but Bayern showed that he's not an elite prospect, and is probably better suited at a smaller club a la Bojan.

Sure, but he fit what OP was talking about. Guys who weren't regular starters at elite clubs.

That sounds like the most fun FIFA manager mode ever.

Why would they want a shite Andy Carroll when they have the real thing?

Hugely.

There were articles a few months ago about French teams wanting to ditch Ligue 1 so they can create a new league and get bigger TV revenue in hopes that teams other than PSG can afford to have teams that can compete at the European level.

The new Premier League deal guarantees that other countries have no choice but make major changes to get more competitive.

How would ditching Ligue 1 and creating a new league with the exact same clubs help make them stronger?

Lewandowski is going to sign an extension through 2021 if he hasn't already.

This. The rich will still get theirs but the lower level squads will just overpay for average talent.

So you are saying there will be a lot of signings like Roberto Soldado to Tottenham.

Somewhat.

I feel like you'll see plenty of "Roque Santa Cruz to City" type signings among the mid-table squads. They'll pay a ton for guys that are mediocre simply because they have the money and the players are upgrades.

You are such a condescending douche the way you talk down to everyone.

Ligue 1 does not equal the Premier League or the Football League due to a variety of factors revolving around economics, demand, etc

As I understood it, there were two or three things the teams were attempting to accomplish.

They first wanted to get rid of the L1 authority, which apparently works with the government and imposes tons of financial fair-play regulations ON TOP of what FIFA already requires.

Second, they wanted the French government to grant a special taxation dispensation. French culture gives really generous tax breaks to the cinema, opera, book-stores, concert halls, etc - the teams wanted a similar dispensation for their contributions, which would probably halve their tax liabilities.

That alone would likely give the bigger teams €10M (at least) to spend on their squads.

I don't think the plan was specific enough at that point where they could define where the extra money (revenue) would come from.

This is all off memory, and I can't seem to find the articles.

Does this mean some team in the BPL will now have the money to pay Klinsmann to leave the USMNT.
