The fact that a 15 year old child wanting to leave man united before he's even been in a matchday squad got so much attention from sky sports, yet a club being found guilty of 114 charges gets such little airtime and criticism is nuts
@verstupper His support to the rookies has been such a warm sight.
They're all killers on track, but Verstappen has easily been the most helpful driver to the young guns.
He's made me a bigger fan of his. 💯❤️
@themagic_tophat I'm slightly anxious as to who leaked the news to Ornstein?
Do you think city might use this as a legal defense that process was impartial... etc whatever language they had on their statement
@chestermanutd3 I'm always so scared when Mr. Invincible is an injury doubt
He hasn't been at his best so I can imagine him playing through pain is true
Hopefully recovers fully ASAP
We have quality around him, need to show up for him as well
Manchester City’s reiteration of their “confidence and intent in proving the club’s innocence” given their “comprehensive body of irrefutable evidence” is incredibly at odds with their own behaviour and the intensity in which they blocked the Premier League’s process of investigation at every step since December 2018.
The scale of their obstructing was revealed in a July 2021 British court judgment. City simply refused to supply information and documents requested by the league, which then issued a disciplinary complaint in August 2019. The club challenged the disciplinary process and the commission that was set up.
The league proposed an ad hoc procedure of appointing a new commission, but City objected to that too. The PL were forced to bring legal arbitration against the club, to be decided by a tribunal of three senior lawyers.
City countered the PL had no power to do that, and challenged the impartiality of the tribunal. That was rejected and the club were again ordered to submit all the documentation and info.
City then appealed to the high court to strike the tribunal down. In March 2021, a judge ruled against the club and that her findings should be published.
City unsuccessfully fought against it being made public knowledge; the judgement published in July illustrated just how hard and long they resisted providing information.
With all that confidence, intent and irrefutable evidence, why the YEARS of non-cooperation and active, intensive blocking?
The "owners should be allowed to invest, how else can clubs grow" narrative is, honestly, ignorant.

At one point we kept saying on the podcast: “Read Der Spiegel” re City.
So many didn’t bother, and some even now seem to think there’s going to be some last-minute revelation that suggests they are, in fact, sound. 🙃
Anyway, read Der Spiegel.

@chestermanutd3 As much of a freak Ayden is physically and I love him for that
He seems way tooo relaxed and nonchalant as a CB
Mentally needs to be so much more intense and focussed
Many small mistakes which would get punished in the PL And mens games
@chestermanutd3 His game is so similar to Declan Rice
He was Irish too well... until youth levels anyway
Can really mould his game towards being that aggresive pressing CDM
Sold on his stocks!
@hamed_alharthi@David_Ornstein Premier league would be a much better and sustainable place without the likes of genocide supporters in Sudan like your employers in the UAE royalty.
No room for cheats in the beautiful game.
