The Poool must be on very thin ice. If not now, then next season.
Always assume Chelsky and their "creative accounting" .

Chelsea were expected to comply and weren't understood to be part of the 76 clubs being investigated apparently. According to a bbc article i read
 
Hence the "creative accounting" comment.
If the Poool are allowed inherited debt paydown as an exceptional condition, then
they should be ok. Otherwise they will have to make a total NET profit of 70m odd Euros
over this/next season.
 
Probably Monaco and some Russian/Ukrainian teams at the head of the list.
Chelsea were borderline last year, weren't they?
 
"I don't know, could be anyone."

Erm, actually no it couldn't. Financially well-run clubs won't be on the list.
So that rules out Spurs and the Goons on day 1.
 
Unless those clubs are an utter financial shambles, UEFA should be going for a big example.
And given my belief in the Platini anti-PL bitterness, then Citeh will be the target.

And leave PSG and Monaco alone. Not even he would geta away with that.
 
Did anyone else see this insane stat from MNF yesterday?

When teams have gone 1-0 up under Mourinho he's only gone on to lose 9 games. <yikes> Only lost 3 when winning at the break. <yikes>
I can't stand the bloke and some of his football can be insanely boring and negative, but that's just relentless and he's done it with multiple clubs.

He's managed one of the leading clubs in all the countries he managed in - and usually the one with the deepest pockets. With the money spent, he really should have been able to produce better quality teams, not just the most resilient. He's obviously a good motivator and organiser and very tactically astute, but his game plan is one dimensional and a poor end product for the multi millions invested.
