[Sports Illustrated] Roman Abramovich livid with Chelsea after being 'misinformed' over initial decision to join European Super League

I think he might have liked the Super League believing that it meant he would keep his Champions League and Premier League status, but he didn't know the government would be after him and that he could lose his semi-final spot, and even be relegated.

Maybe that's what he meant with "misinformed". Misinformed about the consequences, and that they didn't tell him the government could interfere.

I mean, Perez said arrogantly in his interview that he doesn't fear UEFA. And he was somewhat right. UEFA's power is limited. But Perez didn't take into account the FIFA, the national football federations and especially not the French president and British Prime Minister.
