    This thread is about Bayern's dominance not the rules of the game.

    Re: And not just on the field

    It costs €15 to stand at the Allianz Arena in Munich. That's £12.50 in real money. The prices Arsenal charge to watch football are a disgrace. And it's not just them, most clubs in England charge far too much. My German friends laugh their ****** off when I tell them how much it costs here.

    You need to let go of your anti-German mission, take a step back and admire the German game for how they treat their fans.

    I genuinely want you to take me up on my invite to attend a Bundesliga match so you can see the difference.

    Arsenal fill there stadium time after time after time and could fill it with an extra 20k seats at the prises they charge so it's not really a problem.

    Arsenals the most expensive in Europe.

    Arsenal make massive profits.

    But Bayern's dominance culminated with an incident massively involving the rules of the game imo;)

    Football shouldn't be all about making profit though. Did you know Bayern Munich sell out months before their fixtures at very reasonable prices?

    Bayern were already an incredible team last season but Guardiola already looks to of taken them to the next level. They've got a combination of the passing game he had with Barcelona & he's combined that with the more physical German style. They look the complete team.

    It's obvious to see why most of Europe wanted Thiago

    "it's not really a problem". Are you crackers? Of course it's a problem. The problem is that the average earning person cannot afford to go.

    You should speak to the Arsenal fans I know, they are disgusted with their club. There is a waiting list for season tickets and Arsenal exploit that.

    and it's the Arsenal fans that are demanding massive amounts spent on players like Ozil at 42M

    Re: And not just on the field

    That's exactly the problem, ridiculous amounts of money in the game. Which is why I would rather go for a walk on Howden Edge on my own rather than watch a premier league football match.

    Someone on the minimum wage would have to work for 10 hours to pay for an Arsenal ticket for tonight's match.
