Question: Would Man City’s case be brought forward much quicker if they weren’t winning everything? I understand it may be more complex but it seems they’ve chased the strugglers down for punishment much quicker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would have been sensible. Remains unclear what the Premier League were thinking. People saying they wanted to show the Government they could be tough and not need an independent regulator. Incredible to lodge so many charges. In practice there are 5 or 6 issues at most here. In fact 2 or 3 being inflated sponsorship, underhand payments to Mancini and hiding costs.

Cade Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 Indeed. City can (and should) be given a penalty for the easily provable breaches whilst the other breaches are still under investigation. I highly suspect that the powers that be are wanting to only give them one verdict and one punishment, instead of the 115 punishments they should be getting. As usual, the wee teams are having the book thrown at them and the big boys are being handled with velvet gloves, just so the authorities can pretend they're actually solving the problem.

Kind of get what you mean in terms of the overall stylistic but imo it's a stretch to say they are the most boring team to watch when De Bruyne and Foden are on a game. More value in watching them individually than most teams as a collective. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very few mistakes, always make the right pass and are happy to recycle the ball endlessly to find the opening. Nothing wrong with it but doesn't get my juices flowing.

For me comparing it to a style like Liverpool or even Newcastle when they're in full flow is night and day. Think the fans help too, when Anfield or St James' is loud and their teams are on it it's a lot better than watching City passing a team to death and scoring the same goal time after time.

I appreciate what they do on the pitch, but as a spectacle, pish. It’s a kind of style unique to Guardiola and he’s perfected it. He knows the players that fit it, or certainly the type you need. They’ve not even got the best central defenders in the world but the way he’s fashioned a domination of possession allows hardly any pressure on his defence. However, you could argue opposition clubs are now in the grip of “Wenger under Arsenal” syndrome when it comes to Man City. I remember a spell some years ago when the feeling was you couldn’t close Arsenal down because they were that good in possession they’d hurt you if you did. It put added fear in other teams. Only Liverpool and Chelsea this season look to have the balls to chase them down and be aggressive. They don’t like it when it happens and it was the same with Wenger’s lot. Their precious wee possession players whined their eyes out to the refs if an opposition player dared tackle them a wee bit harder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SE16 3LN Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 Man City will decide what penalty they receive and when, and to the minimal level of impact. They have the billions of a despotic oil rich nation behind them. If the dopey ***** who run the Premiership attempt to impose rather than negotiate the sports washers agreed punishment, the will turn the Premiership into a circus that collapses under there own big top. **** them, its what they asked for.

GlasgoJambo Posted 14 hours ago Share Posted 14 hours ago Think it’s weird you’d get caught for gambling. Are they opening accounts using their names or popping into the bookies with a pair of shades on? Lad’s clearly got a problem, only 23 and imagine it’s not really about the money - hints of hypocrisy to ban him while the entire sport is swamped and propped up by gambling.

FionaHmfc Posted 14 hours ago Share Posted 14 hours ago There was a video of Tonali kicking about online where he gets a yellow card for taking too long to leave the pitch when he’s been substituted for Newcastle. He’s literally about 5 steps from the touchline but kept just standing there clearly wanting to be carded. Embarrassing to see it in that context knowing that’s what he was probably trying to do.
