Everything Pep Guardiola has said on Man City FFP Premier League charges
30.11.2023 - 19:21 / manchestereveningnews.co.uk
Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola has never shied away from answering questions on the charges Manchester City are facing.
The Blues were hit with unprecedented charges by the Premier League in February, accused of 115 breaches of competition rules that include nearly a decade of misrepresenting their finances to relevant authorities and failing to cooperate with an investigation into them. The club insists it has a "comprehensive body of irrefutable evidence that exists in support of its position", and will be able to defend themselves at an independent tribunal but the complexity and scale of the case means it could take years before it is heard.
A report on Thursday claimed that a date has been set for the case to be heard in Autumn 2024 and a potential verdict coming in Summer 2025. Both Manchester City and the Premier League declined to comment on the report when contacted by the Manchester Evening News. Here is everything the manager has said on the matter:

November 24, 2023: "Why should I not believe? It's the lawyers to make the defence in front of the judge. I didn't change my opinion, we wait and after we accept the resolutions.
"I'm not going to say one word about Everton because I don't know the reality of what happened. They are two completely different cases. I know people are saying why don't City go to the Conference but let's wait.
"You read it and we should be relegated of course, but nobody knows. All the people who say it don’t know exactly what happened. I haven’t read it all. But wait, what I said a month
