Not at all their arrogance is born of the fact that they are owned by a mega
wealthy sheik and they think they are now owed something, you ain't
surrounded by the clowns I am and you wouldn't believe the shite they
spout..... Mancini has took them as far as he can time to get Maureen in....
FFS.

Also, what Platini is going to impose will do nothing to Citeh of
Chelski. Their debt is to the owner, they can easily write it off / mask
it. The uefa sanctions will be against clubs with unhealthy amounts of
debt, so Liverpool and the Scum will be the first to suffer, along with
Valencia.

And RM will just have the city of Madrid pay off their debts (though
with the Spanish housing market being what it is, that might be more
problematic).
