CITY GET TWO YEAR BAN, WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?

CITY BANNED FOR TWO YEARS, WHAT COULD IT MEAN?

When the news filtered in that Manchester City had been banned from the UEFA Champions League for 2 years, it brought a lot of mixed feelings and it's comes with various ramifications.

First of all, on of the biggest questions following the breakout of the news is what will this mean for Pep Guardiola? He is one whose future at Manchester City has been shrouded in mystery and secrecy. No one knows if he will be leaving or if he will still be staying. But one thing we can guarantee is that Pep Guardiola is not a manager that would want to go for two years without going to the Champions League. This news kind of sealed the story that he would make the move, but let's watch and see.

Also, it means that the other EPL teams now have a slim chance and a glimmer of hope to make it to the Champions League. Even if Manchester City come first in the league, their Champions League spot will automatically move to the fifth place team, so teams like Manchester United, Arsenal, or even Tottenham can begin to dream of going to the Champions League with a fifth place finish and one extra spot for a place in the Europa League.

This will surely bring more competition, and more competition is surely something I love to see and I'm sure every football follower loves to see it as well. It is still early days since the break out of the news so I like many others will wait to see how it pans out
