I don't think it's that we didn't compensate them properly, they just saw the opportunity after Chelsea got done to make a few extra quid on the side if they made it look dodgy. Why complain now, rather than then, if they suspected an illegal approach? In that case it could've been us who set the precedent instead of Chelsea if they were so sure.BillyShears said:I saw we send the kid back...
I'm all for signing up good young players - but it seems rather farcical that clubs like City and Chelsea feel the need to not properly compensate clubs like Rennes...
Anyway, I imagine this will be a storm in a tea cup...after what's happened to Chelsea, no doubt the more pragmatic chairmen of premiership clubs will be calling up any clubs they have problems with and asking the question "how much?" - then simply paying what they need to...
There's no sense in trying to be stingy over a few million euros when much larger punishments could be meted out in the future...

Wonder if a certain Frenchman at UEFA is pulling the strings behind these clubs popping up.n_mcfc said:Seems like clubs are cashing in on the current anti-English stance taken by FIFA.
World Cup 2018 wont be in England!
It's not UEFA it's FIFAmancboy123 said:While i agree in certain terms that we should pay the money and move on. What i dont agree with is the premier league and english league getting bullied by another league purely because they have one of their countrymen at the helm of uefa. I mean if a swiss person gets in charge next are we all going to have bow down to swiss football and let them be succesful for a while where does it end.
Personally i think its time for the FA to grow a spine and stand up to uefa and their constant attacking of the premier league and english football.
