I've read the article. It's just a hit piece, and omits key details. Before City were found to breach FFP, UEFA auditors met with City and went over the criteria, then a year later they changed the criteria. FFP won't hold up in court and UEFA knows it.

It's hilarious how this "oil money" is financial doping but when United out spent every team in England it's OK. When Barca and Madrid re structure TV deals so no one else in la liga can get any money it's OK. When Bayern treats every other team in their league as a feeder club, it's OK. When Abramovich bought Chelsea and injected record sums into the club, then voted for Financial fair play a decade later to prevent other people from investing in their team the same way, it's OK.

I don't think I'll ever convince you about how BS FFP is, but if they truly cared for any type of parity they'd instill a salary cap or a system like the MLS. But it's not about parity.
Yeah breh I’m sure. Big fan pre 2008 I’m sure :mjlol: you’re a good poster so no hate but come on

Out of the two managers I think Emery is better tactically, while Klopp is a better man manager. Astute substitution by Emery by taking off Auba and keeping on Lacazette.

Been a City fan since 2004.

I'm not saying they are saints, but alot of shyt happens in football and that FFP was just made to stop City and PSG from getting to the level of Madrid and United. Shame for them it hasn't worked.... but it has stopped Leicester from becoming a power, and it's made Milan's rebuilding more difficult.

I think there were a few opportunities for Ozil to play a through ball in but didn't take them
