Carragher and Keane give their views on Man City’s Champions League ban by UEFA | MNF

However, don't forget that fifth place might be enough as things stand, you heard the latest news on Friday nights about Manchester City receiving a two-year ban from European football for breaching Fairplay financial regulations, as We have already heard, they will fight against the compelling charges and plan to appeal first to the Court of Arbitration for Sport. There are so many different angles to this story but let's start with the football side and we've heard Pett already quoted saying that no matter what happens, plan to stay, but what if you're one of those players in that locker room and the sanction is confirmed ?

Roy, that two-year sanction. There are only two players in that Manchester City team who have won the European Cup and those are the two substitute goalkeepers. "Don't be tempted in his position to look for a move elsewhere. I think it's difficult. I think it's a big blow for him. Obviously, I think from a players' point of view, if he was in that locker room, he would do it." What I'm getting is them." You'll probably appeal it and if I think one year you get your head back, both years take a big hit, the only other side, I think maybe this year might make them more determined to try to win, that would be your reaction there.

Yes, you're trying, you have to try to see the positives, yes it's obviously attractive, but if they don't do anything wrong, you should take your medicine, but if they appeal to you, mr. one year isn't that bad two years is a big blow but talking about mine like nonsense we have to remind ourselves man he said you've never been to a final there's no guarantee we're going to win in the next few one or two years, but it is obviously very damaging for the club in terms of its brand, the financial aspect, in which it is about attracting the best players, but I still think that City still have other challenges in terms of try to win the

league

title and I think when you have Pep Quadrille in your club.

You know you will still attract very good players. How do you see it, Jamie? Because again, all the information we have is a two-year ban if confirmed. Some of these players are Coming into the prime of

their

career, this could be the best opportunity, maybe the only chance they have to compete in the gym. None of those players should even think about leaving a

city

because, from the look of me, I was worried about what Manchester City had been accused of. being guilty in this mall of being successful is basically to be able to spend more in the transfer market or spend more on player salaries because of this, rather than waiting for enough money from sponsors or income for those players sitting and all the 300 350 of grand a week I'm a sister he's really to blame no what I'm saying is they get paid those salaries that probably the

city

and they're supposed to pay that's why they abandoned them and those players have really said which is not exactly what they have been.

There have been some very successful years being brilliant for Manchester City. What do you think is cool? Think about what it looks like about sanctions. Do you think the events that we, the ones reporting, did there and fell early and stayed there were real for the club? what these players should really be doing and you actually mentioned the fact that they will be more enthusiastic this season to go for it and I can't believe that in the competition no and no because I'm saying this from a Liverpool. points where I want City to win the whole competition, what would happen if City won this competition this season?

The favorites are one of the best teams in Europe. It would make fun of the competition if UEFA were desperate for mine. the cities were defeated by Real Madrid absolutely desperate. Can you imagine that the people in your way gave the Corp in Istanbul to a Man City that played the momentum of it? The first question that Pep Guardiola asked after the match is a victory by faith. Barcelona, ​​you started asking questions about the merits of the club, if we should be in the competition, then they are in a competition now, if they win it it will be almost tainted, it will be the biggest thing I have done in the city. or any club can do is not a bit anyway wouldn't you for

give

him?

It would have been anyway what would be my greatest thing they've ever done? with the biggest that any team can make club teams the biggest they can win but the things that are happening to pep guardiola in a press conference five minutes later and those players will be addressed if they are in the competition. I think that for UEFA they should take mine. Competition city right now. Everything should go. This decision to appeal, isn't it? That's why they are still in the process. Yeah, but it looks like this is going to Cass. If my sister loses that appeal, then they will go to the Swiss court.

This will continue to be ongoing and ongoing and potentially in Europe. Commission after that, so anyway, for a while, let's bring in Gary Neville, who is commentating for us at Stamford Bridge, getting an interesting Gary to get his perspective on this as a club owner of course, or do everything I was interested in listening to. judge Curie since it went through the courts in January I mean I prefer the long held view on FFP, people will say it's because I'm a Sulphate City builder and essentially we'd still be in the mystic north if we couldn't invest more. although it obviously doesn't apply at that level, but I don't agree with the idea that the City manager can't invest the property money.

I have always felt that FFP is the wrong way to apply financial rules. My hometown club, Barry Webb Bush, last year. which is obviously a club very close to my heart and I believe that FFP was hired to prevent clubs from essentially going bankrupt, however, there are different ways to achieve that in all forms of business there are bank guarantees, there are bonds that are held as pledges . Ultimately, if homeowners sign contracts or allow contracts to sign over

their

property, then they should have the money available to be able to honor those contracts. I think the owners of the managing cities have it.

I think if you look at what Chelsea achieved. sit back and watch Lester Blackburn go back twenty-odd years with Jack Walker, we would never see the rise of these clubs, if you like, beneath what would be Manchester United, Liverpool, Arsenal, who have all kinds of history, income and tradition to be able to compete. According to the FFP, what we are saying is that the FFP is stifling investment in two football clubs that can stimulate communities like Blackburn, as well as other clubs. Obviously I have an order, everything is furious, you know, we would never be able to do what we are doing if we didn't do it.

We were not allowed to invest in our club and we are saying that we should essentially create a status quo in football almost like a franchise and I think the best clubs in Europe probably like that: united by a Munich, a Barcelona, ​​a Real Madrid, they would do it. moving football towards a franchise model if we didn't have the emergence of clubs that could invest in owners who could invest in other clubs, that has negative aspects and there have been some horror stories of owners who have essentially invested in clubs and then not fulfilled its commitments, that has to be stopped, but there are other ways to stop it without applying the FFP, so to begin with I have a real problem with the FFP.

To be fair, I've done four over seven or eight years. I don't think it's the correct way to apply it. I think City will beat UEFA. I think you're a four. I don't have any faith in them. I think they are essentially a hopeless organization. It will be applied to be just what would be erratic. disciplinary sanctions for four different things and I think the city will beat them in court. I think it will be stuck in court for a while, but I think in the end it's your victory. Well, I'm with him in terms of FFP.

Financial fear plays a role, what fear does a club like Manchester City have, which for some years in the 60s and 70s has always been a shadow of Manchester United? Are you going to accept that for the rest of your lives? How could it change? It would not change. unless a property like that comes along, what they do is gradually tainted in the way that you've talked about it, David originally talked about and just hear me out on this, they talked about introducing FFP to restrict some of the worst excesses in the game. Michel Platini spoke out about financial doping at the time and tried to encourage responsible spending.

I can see you're shaking your head at that. Gary, continue, Gary, yes, to suggest that, to suggest that manager City could ever catch up to Manchester United through sustainable organic growth is just absolutely absurd money United so far in front with revenues with scale with fan base with everything compared to City the only way City could get on a level playing field with Manchester United was through owner investment now, do I like it from one point of view? The view that I want to manage two cities to be successful not because I would prefer Manchester United to be successful, but the idea that it has been anti-competitive in football is ridiculous.

The idea that the same two or three clubs can win every year thanks to their finances is ridiculous. It's anti-competitive and goes against everything we believe in in this country, so from my point of view clubs should be able to invest, so everyone should be able to invest in two football clubs, but in the moment when they enter into obligations. those who sign up financially should have to be covered by a bond, parent company guarantee, bank guarantee, Barry's situation is absolutely the worst case where tests of fit and proper owners should be two different things here, there should be adjustments to appropriate owner trials and then they should There are two things that should absolutely happen at all football clubs.

FFP is nonsense as far as I'm concerned, it's those two things I mentioned before that should be implemented. Do you agree Roy with what Gary sees? The only thing that worries me between Solidus is that surely all the clubs have signed up for this, they obviously agree, I think they approved it, so if they approve it, you have to follow the rules, which is fair or not. Obviously we have joined I am sure all the bigger clubs are joining I am sure they are there, they are making the decisions and if they signed up then they have to go with Roy Aggie Bakari.

I don't have any time for financial fair play it's not fair to Old City, it should be forever, except being in my United shadow. I'm in my own city now, where Liverpool have just won the European call-up. They have one owner in machinery, they have everything. walk away in the background whose problem you are desperate to invest in as a fan of Everton or any football club if you could accept for the next hundred years even more that you are just sitting there and watching Liverpool when things are always going better than they are. You have that hope, but what you really said is there: Gary mentioned FFP and I don't agree with that, but your wafers are nonsense.

Man City knew the rules from the beginning and they tried to get around them and supposedly if found guilty. If they are obliged by UEFA at the moment or Cass will leave, of course he should be punished and be in the Champions League.
