Episode notes
Manchester City are in the hot seat, and Nnamdi is NOT sweating! 😂
Dalu and Nnamdi go head-to-head over City's reported financial-rule verdict, the prospect of massive points deductions, transfer bans, relegation and even stripped Premier League titles. Could City's lawyers drag this out for years? Is the Premier League really prepared to punish one of its biggest money-makers?
Plus, what does it all mean for Pep Guardiola's legacy? Would Arsenal, Liverpool or Manchester United ever see those lost titles again? And why does Nnamdi think City could survive even a 50-point deduction?
We wrap up with international-break banter, Nigeria and Erling Haaland's pursuit of 1,000 goals.
