    I don't want UEFA banning anyone from Europe. When was the last time they even did that, Heysel? Overspending according to FFP is not equal to people dying, and very recently the Madrid clubs only got a one window ban for tax fraud.

    If PSG are giving the double barrels to FFP or get caught doing some "creative accounting", transfer bans, squad limitations will be more than sufficient. Their front office can't get out of their own way anyway.

    This is the second time they are being punished for FFP, and have already received a fine and a squad limit the first time. I would think they would receive something a bit harsher this time.

    I don't think they should be banned completely, but I would expect to at least see them handed a transfer ban.

    I hate FFP but rules is rules. I'd be fine with a transfer ban or some insane roster restrictions if they really get caught with their hand in the cookie jar. Cut down their roster to 13 plus youth players and watch them twist in the wind.

    I just think booting a club from Europe is opening Pandora's box. You set the precedent when you do it once and end up having to ban someone really big in the future, and the clubs that feel wronged start to pile up.

    That's how a ground swell of support for that Super League starts, and I hate that idea more than I hate FFP.

    Seriously java.. Historically they are a big team and had always had a strong fan base. Take issue with the plastic fans sure.

    Or why not that it sets the market down and shows others that they actually do mean business, in turn making these clubs fall into line.

    DCU will pop up in those rumors more often now that the stadium is almost here and Thohir has sold his stake.

    How is DCU’s stadium shaping up? I saw the pictures and it looks nice but I’m sure it’s pretty cool in person.

    I have only seen pictures. Actually, I have followed the thread on the DCU forum. It is not an area of town that I drive by on any basis. There are those who think short cuts were taken. It will be nice but I am not expecting anything fancy.

    Going to be really strange to not see him at Arsenal next season. Really hope they win the Europa League now just so he can leave on a high.

    Wasn't Arsene Wenger's having heart trouble?

    I don't believe so. Last year he made it sound like he wasn't going to retire if he left Arsenal, and I would assume it's the same now.

    Spurs bites the dust again. It'd be a shame if this squad has nothing to show for this run of quality.

    2 shots on target. They shat the bed when it counted.

    Yeah, it’s perhaps a sad end to his reign , but I’ve always respected the guy. People can debate him as manager, but they can’t debate the character of the man. I’ve always enjoyed listening to his views on football and life itself.

    I’m fascinated to see who they replace him with , as I think that will answer a lot about the direction Gazidis is taking them. I’m also interested to see what Wenger chooses to do next. Rumours of roles at PSG and Dortmund are already swirling.

    Obviously my chief concern is how this effects Arsenal fan tv, though.

    Looks like Luis Enrique is their main target.

    Yeah, I’ve seen a couple articles/reports indicating they’ve been in discussions for some time. I’m not entirely convinced he’s a certainty.

    Even removing my Roma bias, I’m not sure he’s the right fit.

    I’d try for Leonardo Jardim, if possible.
