For so long I was hoping for City's downfall due to the 115 charges.

Who would've thought it would happen naturally.

They’re pretty much done for this season as far as the PL title is concerned but I wouldn’t start dancing on their grave quite yet. They’ve had injuries this year and they’re getting older but Pep just signed a new contract and they will still be able to attract quality players… depending on how those 115 charges turn out.

They will probably try and sign a DM in January to replace Rodri. Someone like Zubimendi.

They might not be completely finished, but they definitely lost that fear factor. Everyone's seen now that without Rodri and de Bruyne they're just an ordinary team. And Pep might not be the tactical genius after all if he can't find a way for them to perform without Rodri.

Yeah, they're not automatic favorites anymore but I think they'll be up there (unless they get relegated). And Cavan Sullivan is on the way in a few years. Which is going to suck because I will probably have to sort of root for them. :laugh:

I hope im wrong here, but i dont believe for a second that the PL will actually relegate City. City will just continue to appeal, and eventually win out. Theres too much money there to not find a way to keep them in the PL.

Other punishments, sure. Buit the chances of relegation are so slim. And even then -- theyll be right back up the following season anyway.
