  • Klopp stunned by Boehly's All-Star suggestion

Boehly hopes the premier league learns a lesson from American sports. Why don't we do a tournament with the bottom four sports teams?

We made 200 million dollars from a Monday and a Tuesday in the MLB All-Star game.

We think we can do a North versus South All-Star game for the premier league.

The North vs South split...

North: Man City, Man Utd, Liverpool, Leeds, Newcastle, Wolves, Everton, Aston Villa, Forest, Leicester.

South: Arsenal, Tottenham, Brighton, Chelsea, Brentford, Fulham, Saints, Bmouth, Palace, West Ham

With police resources stretched in the wake of the Queen's death, the game between the two teams has been postponed.

With the World Cup in the middle of the schedule, the rescheduling of Sunday's game means that the Reds have two matches to fit in.

Boehly had suggested a US-style All-Star game between teams in the north and south of England as a way to liven up the league.

He doesn't take a long time. He will be able to call me when he finds a date. The players are happy that they can do a little bit of sport during the four-month break. It's different in a sport.

Is he going to bring the Globetrotters with him?

"I'm surprised by the question so please don't judge my answers too much, but perhaps he can explain it to me at one point and find a proper date." People don't want to see that. Imagine a north team with all of the players from the national team. The game was interesting.

The London guys are together. There are two football teams: Spurs and Arsenal. It's great. Is it true that he actually said it? It's interesting.

Boehly said that the economics of going into the Championship are different than the ones in the US.

Those numbers fall off a cliff when you enter the Championship. There is no one thinking about tanking, and those games are some of the most watched games on TV.

Boehly said that everyone liked the idea of more revenue for the league.

evolution will come and there is a cultural aspect to it.

The new owners of the Blues conducted a 100 day review of their tenure before they decided to part ways with Tuchel.

Graham Potter has been installed as the new head coach on a five-year contract with the aim of having a new manager at the helm for the long term.

For the first time, Boehly admitted that Tuchel left because of differences of opinion and vision.

The taskmaster German coach was not able to win over the new owners of the club.

New Chelsea head coach Graham Potter says he wants to create his own legacy at the club.

Boehly said that when taking over a business, you have to make sure you are compatible with the people who are operating the business.

Tuchel had a lot of success at the club. The club's vision was to find a manager who wanted to work with us and a coach who wanted to work with us.

There are a lot of walls that need to be torn down. The first team and academy used to not share information about where the top players came from.

All of that needs to be well-oiled in order to bring a team together. We didn't know if Thomas saw it the same way we did. We didn't have a shared vision for the future.

New Chelsea head coach Graham Potter reveals he has never been to a Champions League game before.

The defeat to Dinamo Zagreb was not about what we wanted to look like. The decision was not made because of a single win. We thought the decision was the right one for the club.

An appointment for a new sporting director is expected before the World Cup begins.

The multi-club model is similar to Manchester City.

Boehly said that they had talked about having a multi- club model. I would like to keep building out the footprint.
