The 17 year olds aren't even the issue that much. If you'd just taken the money you spent on Disasi, Badiashile, Jackson, and Madueke you could have got Maddison and Szoboszlai and still had change.

I get why fans of smaller clubs would try to push this narrative, but we don't actually know what is going to happen with City. There seems to be an acceptance they'll get off with it for some reason, but if found guilty their punishment would be multitude times more severe than a 12 point penalty.
And Chelsea haven't actually done anything illegal yet have they? Their potential breaches are in the future.
They've already got away with massively over exaggerating Covid losses, and selling the naming rights to their (at the time) non existent stadium for a huge sum. This charge might be a technicality but they've been absolutely skating close to the edge of what is morally or legally allowed for years now.
Looking at your next 10-12 games there's a chance you'd still be in minus points by February though as you don't have a single winnable home game (unless there's an upset obviously). So even though the bottom three are shite you would potentially have 15+ points to make up by then.
Rashford starting game after game despite offering nothing for about 12 months is pretty tragic. Is he totally undroppable?
Man Utd players... Briefing concerns to the press... Behind the manager's back? Surely not. Absolutely toxic culture at that place.
