Liverpool took out their Man United frustrations on Bournemouth, but are these huge wins a sign of greater inequality between clubs? twoht
. Two up in six minutes and five up by half-time, Liverpool might have had 15 on another day. And all of this came without a single goal from Mo Salah, who contrived to miss a handful of decent chances himself.
It’s long felt as though these big victories are becoming something of a trend, but is this confirmation or recency bias, or are these results the inevitable effects of other issues pressing down on the game? And if it’s not just a coincidence that you can never quite rule out something like this happening increasingly regularly, then what does this say about the direction that professional football may be...
This is a conversation that has been taking place in women’s football for years. At the start of December 2021 England beat Latvia 20-0 in a World Cup qualifier, while just a few days earlier Belgium put 19 past Armenia. These huge margins of victory have been a cause of derision for the women’s game, but the inequality of resources that underpins those results should really be a cause for concern rather than mockery, because what they speak of is a huge imbalance in resources between teams.
After all, when a system leans in favour of the biggest clubs, the supporters of those teams will mostly be in favour. Why would they want to reduce the likelihood of their side hoovering up all the silverware while absolutely battering some poor unfortunates on the way? This sort of conversation is rife with such contradictions. The Premier League is regularly criticised for its inequality, but its TV distribution model is better than some other European countries., for example, Manchester City made £164m from the Premier League’s TV and prize money fund while the lowest earners, Norwich City, made £98.6m.
