He’s either very good at hiding what he knows or, as we know, it is hard for him to hide it as he wears his heart on his sleeve.
There may be some form of leak but it won’t be exact as UEFA have basically been chastised by CAS after our initial appeal and we won’t want to leak because we were the ones to complain about it. And, if UEFAs decision is upheld, why would they want to look bad when they’ve got the outcome they want.
Pep has kept mentioning about being told by the guys above him that everything is okay. He’s mentioned it an unusual amount of times. I think if the ban is upheld, or even dropped to a year ban he’ll most likely be off and may use the fact he was told we’d be good as an excuse.

Good to know I’m not the only one that has erased the Southampton match from my memory as well.
Or the Chelsea game

It very much is. After the club statements regarding irrefutable evidence and the fact that nobody could be so stupid as to not refute the leaked e-mails at the time, I’m 100% certain we have the right outcome. But, not everything is perfect in these kind of cases and a panel will have to take everything into account, which means there is room for doubt.
As mentioned, my concern is how non-committal Pep has been over the last couple of days compared to before. He’s either turned true Blue and is very angry at what the cartel have tried to do, saving his wrath for the official date, or he’s angry that it has been upheld.

Mate, our football is a joy, Southampton got lucky we were wasteful we have seen it before. Arsenal and Madrid is the only games that will matter, however City are the Premier Leagues best football team, even if Camel gob wants to be a RAG cunt all night with his fucking digs, it’s a disgrace BT think it is acceptable. I am not on any social media, he must get some stick for his hate of MCFC.

Just watched another of Pep’s post-match and he mentions that we only need one more point for CL qualification which picks my confidence back up.

All our league games since start back are just games in prep for the FA cup and Madrid game.
As last night went it was a good preparation for the real games ahead, that's all it meant.

We don't need another point for fourth as Leicester and rags are the only ones who can overtake us, but they both can't as they have to play each other.

We only need 3 points to guarantee 2nd. That will get us 72 points which Chelsea get if they win all their games but their goal difference is 17, ours is 52.

Just watching the highlights back again. Foden really did morph into Silva last night, two excellent pre assists to set up the first two goals and then goes and misses two sitters himself.

How could he not, the greatest player to ever wear a blue shirt to date. My lad was 12 when he left Valencia to come to us. 10 years later I have said to my lad enjoy it whilst it lasts. It will be a long time before we get MF doing what he has over the period he has. Like with Vinny we are losing more than a player, and we know that has gone.

Colin Bell is my all time City hero, but Silva is edging it. I plan to be better with you Carl going forward maybe now we have the king in common we can build in this moment.
