Distancing himself from the investigation.

If he was in on it and agreed with it he’d be blagging it.
Soriano described two camps in UEFA:

  • The football technocrats: includes administrators like Ceferin
  • Tebas and City's rival club officials.

The language supports this.
 
We remain a valuable asset?

Asset as in what sense? Is this a public showing of good cop/bad cop?

Of course under sky's headline of us banned next season, they love kicking the boot in.

It has literally gone over my head what this geezer has said and like somebody alluded to UEFA is full of old, bitter and jealous chairman/Ex chairman of the cartel that don't want us in the champions league.

Fuck them.
 


I think this is pretty significant, and unsuprising. I've seen Matthew Syed reciting talking points clearly sourced from a Spanish Journalist who bashed out some stuff about Pep, Spanish Nationalistic populist rhetoric designed to whip up patriotism and hatred towards Catalonia. It seems that when City are involved, ethical standards w/r/t care with political association goes out the window. Very disappointing.
 
The Derby thing is in the process of coming home to roost, but still ongoing.

Villa's might be being done more subtly - I don't know the details.
Thanks for the update MMA. I thought it had gone away quietly as I havent seen or heard anything further about.
 
If the Bravo hadn't made that save on Sunday and then Villa exploited our crap penalties to win the league cup, then they would have been excluded anyway for breaching UEFA FFP as they only escaped EFL & PL sanctions by flogging the stadium to the owner and leasing it back which UEFA wouldn't include in their assessment. So they may as well go balls deep in this monitoring period should they stay up as even if they qualify they can't play in Europe anyway.

I had to explain this to one of the mouthy gits calling us cheats on Sunday
Yeah but their income has more than doubled this season due to PL TV money.
 
This case is getting very interesting...

A bizarre and disingenuous interview from an individual who looks out of his depth.
Really unusual. When have they ever seen fit to interview about any proceedings before.
Who is it aimed at? Us or the cartel?
I’m inclined to think us as, as I don’t think he’d have any trouble or second thoughts about explaining privately to the cartel.
It’s hard to gauge is it just distancing himself from a shitshow that he knows is going to happen. Or is it an attempt to legitimise UEFA’s part in what will come out in the media as a shitshow.
It was like an advertisement, to show how impartial and incorruptible they are.
