Great. Now we can stop pretending that Man City is the most marketable club in the world.

Actually I'm pretty sure it was Real, Juve, Bayern and co who had UEFA in their pockets with FFP. Bout time it ended.

So the problem is that UEFA has absolutely no credibility.
I was being sarcastic, but it is kind of obvious that at the end of the day, the clubs that lobby/corrupt the best get what they want. The governing body is a joke.

The real FFP was the friends we made along the way.
Was flawed from the beginning, targeted certain clubs from certain regions for the most part while the top five leagues largely got away with it (I know Man City and PSG were punished but no way would UEFA ban them like they did with several Turkish and Russian clubs)

The rules before and after FFP are still quite restrictive, especially when it comes to how many homegrown players a squad needs to have for a match. I am not entirely sure, but I would prefer the UEFA for the CL/Europa include rules such as these so teams can't change half of their squad one transfer window like Chelsea did and allow to play every single one of them.

We could certainly be forgiven for forgetting, couldn't we? Looks like they're playing it to me

Can you explain Bayern? Im by far no fan. But "you" have to admit, its maybe the healthiest club in the world. They dont need a sheik or oligarch to be successful. Its the opposite its a club who has a advantage with FFP.

It's untenable because of covid. They need the influx of money to keep some of these clubs afloat. If not for overpaying, there won't be the revenues they're used to getting.
At some point, it will swing back, but the want for the money is the ONLY reason they're dropping this. If they enforced it, most of the top half of a lot of leagues will potentially be out of compliance.

Which was not UEFA's decision but rather CAS'
Please read what I wrote.
It's not because they're recently trying to act nice that they didn't push for every single UEFA change.
Their pressure group includes Lyon if that makes you feel better.

It's also foolish to think Bayern would stay out, if most of the rest of the clubs broke away, and the money was right. Probably more the latter than the former, but they would all do whatever it took to make the most profit, and stick with the group.
