Good article. Their other piece about Arsenal having a reality check was bang on the money too
" La Liga have given their seal of approval for the City Football Group (the family of businesses for which Manchester City is the flagship and brand leader), to purchase a 88%share of one of La Liga’s own teams, Girona, with Pere Guardiola (Pep’s brother)."
Kind of flies in the face of the argument that Tebas is calling for investigation because of our involvement with Girona.

His figures for us aren't quite right but the basic gist is good.

Exactly. It's got nothing to do with that and everything to do with Messi.Kind of flies in the face of the argument that Tebas is calling for investigation because of our involvement with Girona.

Exactly like that article says, La Liga weren't bothered about money in football until clubs from other leagues started to pose a threat to their teams. They celebrated Real and opened the door to them being state-aided. But having lost Neymar, Messi to City being a possibility financially, at least, has them worried.

Very good article, looks like a lot of sour grapes from the Spanish league. UEFA have come out and said that they will be not looking into Man City for breaking FFP rules, but will be looking into PSG for breaking those rules.

It was only Jackson who seemed to make that link, almost as though he needed a spacefiller to make up word count, and through in his obligatory spin.
If La Liga had had a problem, it wouldn't have happened!

A couple of posters earlier in the thread, maybe a page or two back reckoned Tebas was calling for the investigation due to our involvement with Girona.

OK, ta. I thought that had appeared from Jackson. I see FCBarca and another raised it.
