Do you really think Manchester city would be punished?
I am waiting for developments in this case. I read the latest news about their case awaiting trial in court. So far, the news only ends there, they don't say when the court trial will be held. This case should be revealed openly, including court proceedings. This has to do with the EPL and its credibility. There should be no different process for fellow EPL clubs. Everyone must have the same rights and obligations. The Man City case seems to be going on behind closed doors and not many media are reporting this news. In fact I read the source from January.

Currently, several media are starting to report this intensively again, I hope this will not drag on because if this continues to be brought up then it is very likely that this will have an impact on the team's performance.
For Man United, if they could reach the top 4, it would already be something special. Considering that they have been bad since the season started. And they have only improved since mid-season.
Looking at Manchester United's impressive performance so far, it is very possible for them to finish in the top 4, but if we go back to the start of the season, that is not Manchester United's target, they should be able to become champions or compete fiercely for the title with the strength they have , but unfortunately at the start of the season the team coached by Ten Hag was unable to be consistent and also unable to display their best performance.
