Gary Neville gave his views on the possibility of a Premier League game point drop on The Football Show on Sky Sports News
Gary Neville feels that a Premier League drop in points per game would be unfair if the remaining games cannot be played.
Premier League shareholders discussed restarting the project during virtual talks on Monday, following the government’s new guide on blocking restrictions.
The 20 Premier League clubs remain committed to ending the 2019/20 season and insist that no club has called for the reduction of this campaign or has asked the Premier League to remove the relegation if the season is restarted.
However, with opposition to the idea of neutral locations and the growing concerns of players about their own safety, it remains to be seen whether football will be able to restart.
If the season ends and places need to be decided, Neville believes that a points-per-game decision would be too unfair for the bottom clubs; Bournemouth, Aston Villa and Norwich would be relegated.
3:14 Sky Sports News chief reporter Bryan Swanson says Premier League clubs unanimously stated at a meeting on Monday that they would rather play their remaining matches at home and away.
Neville said Tuesday The soccer show: “I don’t think the decline is fair on a point-by-game basis.”
“I think that if you were going to play soccer, it is correct that you play soccer for your promotion and relegation. But I think that, based on the points per game, you will be relegated with nine games to play, with a lot to play because, so tight at the bottom and with so much at stake, personally I do not think it is correct.
“I think it feels unfair. What we’ve seen in the past few weeks has been quite unpleasant. The clubs have been showing their own interest in trying to fight for the positions. But the big six and the powers at the top always will.” . to be able to have that thumb pressed on others in some way, because they carry the weight.
“I think it is unfair for the points per game for relegation. It is important to express that. It is devastating to drop at any time, but without even having the opportunity to defend yourself and play soccer games it would be too much.”
Carra: null and void will never happen
FA President Greg Clarke has revealed that the governing body of English football would not sanction the invalidity of the 2019/20 Premier League season, effectively guaranteeing promotion and relegation and that he would win the title.
Speaking tuesday The Football Show, Sky Sports pundit Jamie Carragher He insists that the null season has been off the table for weeks, and that relegation is now the key area of concern regarding the resumption of the season.
1:17 After the news that a third Brighton player tested positive for coronavirus, Sunday’s Supplement panel discussed the challenges of resuming play.
“Emptiness and emptiness are largely neglected, but were removed from the table weeks ago,” Carragher said. “Regardless of what the FA says, UEFA was removed from the table when they revealed how they would determine European spots next season.”
“In all the leagues that have ended, Belgium, France and the Netherlands, people say those seasons were null and void, but they weren’t. This is not new news; it was never going to be null and void.”
“The relegation is now the main issue. Some countries have decided that the leagues will remain as they are. If League One and League Two are canceled and promotions and relegations go up through the leagues, it means that three have to go to the Premier League or three have to go down.
“A few weeks ago I mentioned that I thought that the teams at the bottom of the league were finding problems rather than solutions to try to make the Premier League work. If points per game were implemented, I think the teams at the bottom they would find a way to play
“We don’t want obstacles to be put in the way to complete the Premier League and if the teams are going to fall they will find a way to play to avoid points per game.”
Carra: PL must bring players with them
Carragher also feels that the Premier League needs to get players more involved in security discussions for football to return.
“The biggest deciding factor for the Premier League return is the players. It always feels like the players were the last people consulted, the Premier League needs to bring the players with them because if the mass players don’t want to play, it’s very difficult for the Premier League to get going.
1:19 The Premier League met again on Monday to discuss restarting the project, as the clubs assimilated the latest government councils.
“Of the players and managers I have spoken to, the consensus was that the majority want to come back. There will always be one or two who are suspicious and may not want to come back and understand it. So the Premier League has to involve the players and transmit more information.
“Player safety is more important than anything else; money, promotion and relegation, title, European qualification: player safety is paramount.
“That is why players need to start this journey with the Premier League now. This situation will not be without risk until a vaccine is released and even then it is very difficult to say that it will be completely risk-free.” “
