We’re going to be perceived badly by many people regardless of what we do, so we should just say fuck it and start splashing the cash again. £100m for Felix and £200m for Mbappe for starters ;)
I think this is spot on except for the tense. It's not "we're going to be" as much as "we already are".
Talk to opposition fans and everyone thinks we are breaking every rule going and financially doped up to the eyeballs. 10 years of negative overae has gotten it to the point where no one even thinks City being found not guilty in the latest investigation is an option. If we get done then well done UEFA, if we get off scott free then UEFA is corrupt.
