100% agree with this statement. The FA have no control whatsoever over english football. All they can do is create panels to look at why we're failing, any suggestions the panel create won't be implemented as it'll impact the premier league too much.
Scudamore runs english football. He's in the business of making money for himself and his organisation. He is not interested in the english national team or promoting english young footballers as it wont "put bums in seats" then he's selling the game abroad. He wants the top players to attract the top sale rights as he's in a business not a sport.
Foreign owners won't get involved in anything to improve english football as they're in the club owning business to make money. Totally different to german football again. There can be no foreign owners in the bundesliga. German owners are united in their loyalty to the german national team and the development of young german players even if it impacts their first team for a few years. It's a healthy environment for development rather than the corrupt, money hungry, greed of the premier league.
