Why is there no article on here about how United are turned into the focus of UEFA/FIFA/Platini/Blatter as well ?
watch out is all i can say.

Chelsea shouldn´t have done deals like the Kakuta one, but United are not better in this case.

This is anti english policy by those muppets to weaken the EPL teams in Europe… so you better think twice before you laugh

whilst in theory this is hilarious, the ban wont stand.

There was some Swiss club that suffered a similar fate from Fifa, however, as Chelsea will do, they took the case to the court of arbetration for Sport, and whilst the appeal is still open, the club are not imposed by sanctions. It’s very realistic that the appeals process will still be happening in a years time, and Chelsea will be able to spend till their hearts content.

Am a little concerned about this cos they seem to be targeting English clubs. First it was Arsenal with the Eduardo dive which I was surprised that UEFA got involved since I have seen worse with the continental clubs and no one getting banned.Now its Chelsea with this tapping up scandal.

Worried they might target Man Utd next with the Pogba deal.

i dont love chelsea but it is very wrong. they ban english club but they never relegated ac milan or lazio(yeah they did relegate juve) in the matchfixing scandal.i guarentee if it was one of the english club they would have relegated them.
if tommorow man city overtakes fake madrid in transfer and if city buys messi or if we buy him for 100 millions(i know we wont but still) there will lot of fuss.

Like many here I greeted the UEFA ban on Chelsea with glee. But reflecting on it now I think it may not that much of an impact this season. This is going on the premise that Chelsea will appeal and they could go all the way to the Sports Arbitration Court and get a reduced penalty of say maybe one transfer window. There is a legal precedence for this. So if you count the Jan transfer window in which none of the top 4 really does any business the key one of course is the summer transfer window. I get the feeling Chelsea will get it reduced to the Jan window.

On a wider point, I’m not one for conspiracies especially anti-Premier League. But I do wonder what’s going on. Is it a case of picking on Chelsea because right now their case is timely (wrong place wrong time) and UEFA just want to send out a warning that every predatory top club is on notice? Could be.

They will appeal and most probably the ban will be reduced to 1 trf window. That means they can buy next summer. BUT IN AN APPEAL, BAN CAN ALSO BE INCREASED………….

If we’re guilty of doing something wrong we should receive punishment, if not then we have nothing to worry about. I’ve said for years the way clubs and players treat each other is just a disgrace, plain and simple. Every club does it and we’re no different. Just look at the way we signed Berbatov. We bid for him, Spurs rejected it, so we just went and flew him to Manchester, picked him up, took him to Carrington and put him through his medical and talked personal terms, all this despite not having Spurs permission to do so. If another club had done this with one of our players we’d been fucking screaming about it. Of course that deal is done and dusted, we shut them up by paying them the money they wanted and giving them Campbell.
But UEFA have to start somewhere and if Chelsea have effectively stolen another clubs player then they have to accept the punishment like men and deal with it. We’re the same, I’m hoping the Pogba case was all 100% ligit, but if it wasn’t then lets not cry like little bitches about it, we fucked up, we got caught, we get punished, that’s how life works. Lets just hope UEFA apply the same punishment to ALL clubs who are guilty of this, not just the clubs it feels like punishing.
