If Everton was hit with 10 points for ONE violation, there’s no way 30 is sufficient for 100+ violations.

Fines + relegation is the only recourse. Not to mention Everton cooperated fully with the investigation and didn’t stall for years. If the PL wants to maintain ANY credibility in terms of their financial rules, they have to bring the hammer down hard here.

The Championship doesn’t have to take them. They could, theoretically, go down to National League.

There should be a time limit on VAR if you can’t make a decision in 2 minutes or send the ref to the screen in 2 minutes, then the on field ruling stands.

I have no idea how the VAR ref can’t immediately say “Stop the match. Go look at it” in less than 60 seconds.

Nah, Big 6 was already a stretch (really it’s big 5 cuz Spurs haven’t won anything).

Sometimes there are things players bring that are hard to quantify.

Kai actually has provided steel in the middle of the park and is a threat in the air. Also, it was clear after Xhaka left that Arteta wanted size in the #8 position.

I’m not saying he’s been secretly stellar or anything like that, but there are aspects to the game that don’t involve assists and scoring. On top of that, Arsenal are 1st with a decent run of matches coming up and haven’t even been fully fit.

I’m not gonna complain about one guy given the situation.
