PL Opposition Tidbits

The dog shagger is looking for an easy way out.

Pep Guardiola has threatened to resign from Manchester City if the club do not reduce the size of the squad over the summer. A number of first-team players did not make the squad for the 3-1 win against Bournemouth on Tuesday night and the head coach is unhappy with leaving so many out.

Abdukodir Khusanov, Savinho, James McAtee and Rico Lewis all had to watch on as City secured victory to move up to third in the Premier League. It shows the depth available to Guardiola but he has always preferred to work with a smaller group of players.

I said to the club I don’t want that [a bigger squad],” Guardiola said. “I don’t want to leave five or six players in the freezer. I don’t want that. I will quit. Make a shorter squad, I will stay. It’s impossible for my soul to give my players in the tribune [stands] that they cannot play. Now it happened to add players immediately.

“Maybe [for] three, four months we couldn’t select 11 players, we didn’t have defenders, it was so difficult. After people come back but next season it cannot be like that. As a manager I cannot train 24 players and every time I select I have to have four, five, six stay in Manchester at home because they cannot play. This is not going to happen. I said to the club. I don’t want that.
 

Manchester United have revealed that they are at risk of breaching PSR in a letter to fan groups The 1958 and Fan Coalition 58 about ticket prices. The letter claimed that the club suffered losses totalling over £300 million over the past three years. The Red Devils have said that they will explore many avenues, including increases in ticket prices, to bring the losses down.​



They deserve a 10 point deduction

The depressing thing is, they could take a 10 point deduction and still not get relegated.

15 would make things spicy!!!
 
The Sky Sports pundit Gary Neville has been refused entry to the City Ground by Nottingham Forest for their final Premier League game of the season on Sunday against Chelsea. Neville was scheduled to be part of Sky’s commentary team as both sides bid to secure Champions League football next season, but Forest have declined to grant him media accreditation. The East Midlands club declined to comment when approached.

The former Manchester United defender Neville said on Instagram: “I was contacted by Sky Sports earlier on in the week and told that I would be commentating at the City Ground on Sunday for the Nottingham Forest v Chelsea match. I was informed yesterday by Sky Sports that Nottingham Forest would not give me an accreditation or access to the stadium as a co-commentator. I’ve had no choice but to withdraw from the coverage.

“I’ve dished out my fair share of criticism and praise in the last 14 years of doing this job and have never come close to this unprecedented action. Personally, I think it’s disappointing that a great club like Nottingham Forest have been reduced to making such a decision. While they have every right to choose who they let into their own stadium, it’s symptomatic of things that have happened over the last 12 months with the club. I wish the coaching staff, players and fans of the club all the best in their quest to achieve Champions League football.”

Neville has been highly critical of Forest and owner Evangelos Marinakis this season. He described Marinakis walking on to the pitch and exchanging words with the head coach, Nuno Espírito Santo, after the recent draw with Leicester as “scandalous”.
