Honestly it's sickening that we (and loads of other clubs) have behaved impeccably, following the rules and those who break those rules, gaining a massive unfair advantage, get nothing more than a fine and then they get to carry on as if nothing happened. That they're all owned by gazillionaires who won't even notice the hit the fine will bring makes it all the more galling. Where's the incentive to be lawful?
I wouldn't blame Newcastle if they do whatever they like now.

Wish our club would push the envelope trying every trick they can to invest as much as they can in the team. We’re the exact bloody opposite unfortunately. A paragon of financial virtue yet sinking like a stone on the field.

I wonder if City are not properly punished and the PL lose that power, how the teams operating within the current rules will react?

Could there be more cases against the PL from these teams?

He’s done there when your players are coming back at you like this. He’s a worse was subbed off later though.

Looks like from checking bbc website Marmoush has tended to play in a front 2 in a 3-1-4-2 formation for Frankfurt so will be interesting to see how he is deployed for city.

He has had comparisons with Salah and also said to be able to play wide so assume he can adjust to that rather than being in a front two.

This was a year ago mate and apparently Thierry Henry said De Bruyne had some personal stuff going on, which might have also led to him being a bit emotional at the time.

Think they also man-hugged it out afterwards.

Do they ever do loans in with an obligation or option to buy?

They just seem to buy outright. I guess that's what having a bottomless pit and the best lawyers available gets you.
