    Manchester City Found GUILTY - What Does It Mean For FPL Draft?

    Manchester City have been found guilty of serious breaches of the Premier League's financial rules - but what happens next, and how will it impact your FPL Draft team? In this special, we break down the potential fallout from the Manchester City charges - and what possible punishments could mean - not just for City, but for the entire Premier League and FPL. Could City face a massive points deduction? Could they be relegated ot even expelled from the Premier League? What happens to their remaining fixtures? Could the number of relegation places change? And what would happen to City's players if the punishment they received was particularly brutal? We look at: ⚖️ What Manchester City have actually been found guilty of 📉 The possible points deductions and sporting sanctions 🚨 Could Manchester City be relegated or expelled? 📅 What could happen to Premier League fixtures and results 🔄 The potential impact on City players and transfers 🏆 What it could mean for the rest of the Premier League There are still major steps to come, and the sanction has not been decided. Manchester City continue to plead their innocence, and have said they will appeal, and the scenarios discussed are possibilities rather than predictions.
