    You actually believe that ****?

    Remind me when City sold five hundred or so million worth of players.

    So investigation, then appeal, then court of arbitration.

    2 years later City might, if the wind's blowing in the wrong direction, they might get a ban from the CL in the 2021-22 season.

    In the mean time City strengthen the squad just in case.

    Yeh ok <laugh>

    Personally, I think the whole concept of FFP is ridiculous.

    It can't be properly enforced and isn't... So it shouldn't exist. There has always been "money" in football and teams with more money win more games (on average). All FFP does is lockdown who are the rich clubs more.

    It sucks my club doesn't have Oil money, but neither do most clubs and we have more money than most...

    They've probably dished out the right bungs, though. Forgot the VAR bloke, unfortunately.

    'Do you think I deserve to have this type of question?':

    Pep Guardiola reacts angrily to suggestions Man City's Treble has been tarnished by Financial Fair Play investigation

    He is quite right to be angry too. If a manager tells a club "I need these 4 players" and the club say ok do you expect him to ask them how?

    Everyone feels sorry for Benitez because he has no money to spend, yes Ashley is rich but does anybody ever stop to wonder how Newcastle as a club are fixed FFP wise?

    You can't have it both ways, either your owners are rich and break the rules or they are rich and keep within FFP. City's seem to break them, Newcastle's seem to stay within them. It all comes down to the clubs earnings and has little to do with the manager or his requirements.
