    How do you know they cooked the books

    Because that is what the charges are based on.

    They needed to cook the books to avoid financial fair play punishment and to get the players in to achieve their success.

    But that has been unfair on sides who went by the rules. Arsenal, Liverpool and so on have missed out on success because of it. Remember Pep spent a significant amount of money in 2016 and 2017 to achieve this success.

    There is a reason why City did what they did. It was to win trophies by buying players and stacking up their squad. If they were that confident of winning trophies anyway, they would not have 115 charges against them for cooking the books, but they clearly weren’t confident.
