Stop putting obstacles in the way of anyone and everyone who dares to want to compete then, you corrupt bastards.

Found that a really positive article to be honest. A lot if guess work in it and "opinion" but nonetheless, a good and positive read. I'm sure some will not like it mind...

From what's been reported though, unless I've completely misread it it several times, City are looking to scrap the ATP rules as a whole, not just the latest set if rules. If that's the case FMV rules go out the window too. From the Times. https://archive.is/LeeIS At next week’s hearing, which has provoked bitter divisions between clubs, City will attempt to end the league’s Associated Party Transaction (APT) rules, which they claim are unlawful, and seek damages from the Premier League. Introduced in December 2021 in the wake of the Saudi-led takeover of Newcastle United, the rules are designed to maintain the competitiveness of the Premier League by preventing clubs from inflating commercial deals with companies linked to their owners. The rules dictate that such transactions have to be independently assessed to be of “fair market value” (FMV). If ATP rules go, FMV goes with it. It's the same thing. And finally. If City are successful in their claim — and some rival clubs fear they will be — it could enable the richest clubs to value their sponsorship deals without independent assessment for the league, vastly boosting the amount of money they can raise and therefore giving them far greater sums to spend on players.

If City win their ATP case, the fair market value rules are out the window. How couldnt they be?

I think you're underestimating Tonali's passing range. His first time passing looks immense.

I picked Howe over Mitchell but the bit in bold here is the most important bit. I'd choose the club's vision over both if it came down to it.

Something needs to change. Whether it br a formation change or like you say, a tactical change. One thing is for sure though, we cannot continue playing the way we are.

I'd love to see us play 4-2-3-1. We need that protection In front of the back 4 as the amount of times we're hurt or nearly hurt by that huge gap between defence and midfield is so alarming. Bruno and Tonali playing there would be fantastic I feel.

People keep fetching this up and conveniently forgetting she said "5 to 10 year plan"

Bruno that is fucking shocking mate.

Gordon needs to get his fucking finger out or get off the pitch. He's been shocking. Attitude abysmal.

Sick to death of these performances now. So sloppy in possession, so easy to play against. Always look like we're about to concede.

Kelly standing off, Schar standing off.

Really?

Alvarez was fucking awful there.

Good question.

Any ideas?

Aye, starting to get annoying when it's Longstaff who's playing instead of him like.

I don't think I could take him seriously if that was his hair.

Was 1-1 before I left the room.

Back before Christmas 2029 at the earliest.

Hope once again looking for dramatic headlines. The guy is a huge bellend. Massively gone down in my estimation.
