Manchester City

Wonder would the likes of Rodgers come back and point to contract bonuses etc in the event of title wins. Some can of worms. But only fair..... especially when lfc themselves have the potential to come back for prize money. This could then lead lfc and others to come out and point at the lose revenue beyond tangiable prize money after winning a league.

Another reason why I don't think they would strip titles and award them to other teams, it's not just the league winners but it cascades down from there, prize money per position, loss of CL or European revenue, gate receipts from extra games, sides wrongly relegated.

Players or managers prize money for winning the league would be fairly easy to calculate based on contracts, as you say intangible stuff like loss of revenue for champions marchendise or more money for preseason tournaments they would have attended as champions etc that is more complicated, it is also important because IIRC in 2020 we gave more money out in bonuses than we got as prize money for winning the league.

It could likely lead to every club in the league seeking compensation so is another reason why I don't see it happening it makes everything too messy and while you could say that's City's problem it drags out the secondary process and keeps the issue in the public eye for longer potentially causing more damage to the PL brand.

Dislike Guardiola so much.....

"Newcastle won the Carabao Cup, Liverpool won the Premier League and Manchester City won the Community Shield. The other teams didn't win anything..."

I honestly thought you made that **** up but...

Guardiola defends season with Community Shield claim.....

He's also wrong seeing that the Europa league winner will be a trophy winning side from the PL entered in to the Champions League. And potentially Chelsea. So in other words, the only side in the CL who won't have won anything will be Arsenal

And City. He's not fooling anyone.

The bald guy said KDB is the second best passer of the ball after Messi

He also said he will quit if City don't cut their squad size down....is there anyone on the fringes of their first team that might provide us better options that the players that Slot does not trust?

[ChesterDave]

Hasn't there been recent instances of them not naming a full squad because it was 'too small'

Spoilt man he is

[Scratch]

He mentions that, said that they will of course have injuries, but that he would expect to call upon the youth players to fill that void. Says it is bad for team morale to have 4 or 5 players constantly miss out on making the match day squad.
