Most English clubs have billionaire owners so players don't feel like giving up part of their wages knowing the owners are just going to pocket the money and not help with anything
Once we know what's gonna happen with the season and if they're gonna lose the TV money etc we might see more things like that happening

Premier League is nothing but a bunch of overrated money hungers lol

Robert Doyle says:

So sad that some players might have to manage on slightly less than 5 million a year basic salary !!

Why do I feel like this Corona situation doesn't affect man city, psg, zenit and spartak moscow.. they'll just keep getting money pumped in from their Abu Dhabi friends and the qataris.. famous gazprom and lukoil

Non playing staff, what is that?. No one is playing anything. Does that mean all staff including players, , does it include the exec as well. CEO. What does that mean?

Christian C says:

Why? The short answer is because they’re a bunch of twats who are scared of asking their own players who they hired to take a reduced wage
