Man City's 115 charges discussion.

 The Premier League vs. Man City financial charges hearing has ended in London. City is accused of violating UEFA financial fair play rules and expenditure regulations by not providing accurate information during a nine-year period.


UEFA chief Aleksander Ceferin on Man City FFP charge: 'We know we were right'


It began on September 16 and ended 12 weeks later, last Friday, December 6, at the International Dispute Resolution Centre at St. Paul's in London. A ruling is anticipated in the spring, perhaps in March. The appeal process, which would take several months, is available to both parties.

In February 2023, the premier league, the Premier League charged city with breaking more than 100 of it's financial rules.

City deny all charges, which include,
 
  •       Failing to provide accurate financial information for nine seasons
  •       Failing to provide full details of players' wages for six seasons
  • Failing to provide full details of Roberto Mancini's wages for four seasons
  • Not co-operating with the Premier League's four-year investigation
  • Failing to comply with UEFA's FFP rules for five seasons
What might happen to City?
Premier League regulations state that any penalty may include a deduction of points or, in the most extreme case scenario, the possibility of being kicked out of the league.


When is a decision going to be taken?
It is unlikely that the independent commission will announce a decision until the spring.

However, since it is a judicial process and not influenced by City or the Premier League, schedules may change.

Arne Slot vs Jurgen Klopp

For all of the football fans that have been watching the premier league this weekend I can't quite understand how Arne Slot has came into Liverpool Football club and has been on a great run of form with having 8 games played winning 7 and losing one but impressively being top of the table and having the best defence in the league. In this post I will be comparing how Arne is different from Jurgen Klopp who was the previous manager of the club who had a great 9 year stint with the club winning every trophy available. 1. Pressing and Defensive Style: Arne Slot : Slot employs an aggressive pressing system, similar to Klopp, but with a more structured and coordinated approach. Slot focuses on pressing as a unit, emphasizing compactness and minimizing space between the lines. His teams often press high but also drop into a mid-block when needed, aiming to control transitions and prevent counterattacks. Jürgen Klopp : Klopp’s signature gegenpressing style is more relentless and high-ris...

The "Inverted fullback"

 The tactical evolution of modern football has changed the way teams and players perform. The recent development of inverted fullbacks has been one of the most inventive and intriguing of these changes. The traditional defensive role of a fullback has been transformed into a dynamic, multipurpose position by this tactical idea. However, what are inverted fullbacks exactly? Why have they grown to be such an effective tool for some of the world's top teams, and how do they operate? This post explores deeply into the idea of inverted fullbacks, analysing their function, advantages, difficulties, and tactical theories. Ange at Spurs: Inverted Fullbacks: What Are They? Fullbacks were traditionally tasked with providing width and delivering crosses into the box in order to support attacks and defend wide areas. But over time, fullbacks' roles have changed significantly, especially with the emergence of inverted fullbacks. When their team is in possession, an inverted fullback shifts...

Chelsea Vs Tottenham Premier League derby

 The story of a complete bottle job from Spurs. This Sunday passed, Spurs hosted Chelsea in what was a crazy encounter in the Premier League. Chelsea's remarkable comeback from a two-goal deficit to win at Tottenham was completed by Cole Palmer's cool 'Panenka' penalty. Spurs got off to a quick start but then faltered and lost, adding to the recent suffering for under-fire manager Ange Postecoglou. Goals from Jadon Sancho and Enzo Fernandez, as well as two penalty kicks from Palmer, put an end to the team. The game had slipped away from Tottenham by the time Son Heung-min added their third goal in stoppage time, after Dominic Solanke and Dejan Kulusevski had put them ahead 2-0 in 11 minutes. Chelsea's victory puts them only four points behind leaders Liverpool in the Premier League, whose match against Everton on Saturday was postponed due to Storm Darragh. Spurs had a frantic start at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, and five minutes after Brennan Johnson took adva...
