Analysis of the PL’s #ManCity investigation & decision is a topic in need of hard to find nuance. City can be guilty, but so can other powerful entities with their own interests where the history of using such events to distract us from their own misdeeds, to go unscathed is long
Appreciate the effort at nuance, but couldn’t more than 2 things be true here?
Other factors worth exploring not being discussed ie concern with efforts to “clean up” x meant to appear to public seeking “justice”(revenge?) but doesn’t address whats actually creating the problem.

Problem is not VAR itself.
It's how, when & why it's used in some situations.
VAR’s application now can be unclearly defined leaving risk for subjective use.
AND some laws are also subjectively interpreted.
This = high risk for bad outcomes — both accidental or intentional.
Sam “gets” Pep bc he genuinely seeks to.
Too many don’t seem to & why I’ll admit it wasn’t just banter, but a jab at others. Not Sam, who Pep respects despite criticising him. Why?
To be adversarial as a journalist is valuable, but is self awareness?

Whom am I referring to?
Intelligent journalists’ populist rhetoric flaming tribalist fans feelings via valid ?’s “state owned” “sportswashing” clubs w/o analysis of FFP’s deeply flawed design, exploration of better solutions + labeling & dismissing @ManCity fans’ as apologists.
Sadly and ironically for fans who thought FFP would “save football” FFP will likely lead to the super league because it was never a good system.
Who’s at fault? All of us but those with more influence than others when it comes to good intentions or not seems higher no?

As a City fan I can feel empathy for football fans of UK/EU clubs who backed FFP. Why? I’ve long felt the “legacy “, “old money”, monopoly” clubs sought to exploit Europe’s historic populism/nationalism/class inequality views from the left & right (USA has our own version)

Wild speculation or realistic insight to wonder if City’s “115 charges” motivated by PL awareness of newer FFP P&S pen risk incoming for “poor, innocent” PL clubs, but not “big bad” City bc escaped CAS & not P&S risk now via success + well run. A ‘mare scenario for PL optics.

As a mental health professional I cannot say enough how much this is brilliantly said
This should be shown to young people and it’s something I actually repeat regularly to them in my own work.

Another brilliant show with the level of analysis, perspectives, and questions we need more of, regardless of what club you support.

We sure this is only about a Laporte or Ake long term injury + the impact of WC timing?
Would pep try him as an Inverted Wing Back? Given Walker's struggles, Akanji 's higher technical level & practically two footed. Also, small sample size but look at these buildup numbers:
BREAKING: #ManCity are close to an agreement to sign Borussia Dortmund’s Manuel Akanji.

For those referencing one’s chance to die in a #schoolshooting as low to incorrectly claim others’ concern level not based in fact: data on trauma risk points to harmful effects on children that accounts for far more than those numbers can show. #truama #ACEs
There are big problems using probability to be killed in a school shooting to diminish these events’ impact.
Children’s brains are at high risk for traumatisation. The constant lockdowns/drills; worse in communities w/high rates of gun violence, could be an avoidable A.C.E.
I feel like I’m gonna start calling #OffRoadBikes electric #Mopeds and #EBikes that go 30+ miles an hour in #NYC ‘GTA’s’ since so many drive like they’re inside of that game. #ElectricVehicles #GTA
