Scudetto and penalty: from dream to nightmare. What could happen next year is sensational and involves one of the strongest teams in the world. The situation
Some people are convinced that something sensational could happen next season. Not so much, of course, because of matters on the field, those cannot be questioned. So for what? For what has obviously happened off the field, and since they have shown over there already over the course of this year that they mean business, then there is a possibility that something big could happen.
Let’s talk about Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City, which, as we know, has been accused of violating more than 100 Financial Fair Play rules over the years. In the season that also just ended, Everton and Nottingham Forest, for much less, were penalized. So there is little doubt that by the time the trial begins, and all of this is expected to happen next fall, the chances of a penalty or, even relegation, will become very high.
Scudetto and penalty, Manchester City nightmare
Of all this also several bookmakers in England are convinced. So much so that precisely the possibility of relegation to Serie B for the team coached by Guardiola is being put on the list. Definitely a very high odds, but much lower than the other big names in the English league.
A hundred and fifty times the stakes you play this possibility. Yes, you will say, it is still a very high figure but surely, as explained, it is not as huge as it would be logical given that on the field, after four championships in a row and given the roster that the Catalan coach has at his disposal. So something might be going on, especially if the stances that two other clubs, certainly “less strong” in political terms, have taken over the past months are confirmed. Is Manchester City at risk, then? Apparently so, there can no longer be any doubt.
