Pep Guardiola said that Manchester City bosses are more confident in their fight with the Premier League than they were with UEFA.
The Blues would have been banned from the Champions League three years ago if UEFA had their way, but the club went to the Court of Arbitration for Sport in appeal and the decision was completely overturned. City were forced to pay a fine for not co-operating with the investigation, yet the unambiguous ruling was that they "did not disguise equity funding as sponsorship contributions".
City have now been hit with a fresh set of allegations from the Premier League, who have claimed that the club have broken over 100 rules over nearly a decade of misrepresenting their financial position. A commission will be set up to hear the evidence of both sides before ruling on a decision.
