Scott Willis @scott.cannonstats.com · 5hI guess this was all bluster from Pep Guardiola. “When Manchester City are accused of breaching Financial Fair Play, I ask the board. They explain it to me and I believe them. But I tell them: ‘if you lie to me, I will leave and I will no longer be your friend’.” 3373

Scott Willis @scott.cannonstats.com · 27/09/2026As I have absorbed more opinions about the City charges, this remains the biggest issue for me. City’s ownership have given the finger to the League and said you can’t govern me. This is the breach that is most deserving of a major punishment 6639
Scott Willis @scott.cannonstats.com · 26/09/2026Silver lining of Manchester City is that we are not wallowing in Arsenal’s loss against Brighton anymore 6610
Scott Willis @scott.cannonstats.com · 26/09/2026I’m still shocked by the Manchester City news. I had grown so cynical that we’d see something like this. I still have reservations that the punishment will match the cheating but I hold hope. I wrote about it here. www.cannonstats.com/p/the-city-v...cannonstats.comThe City Verdict Is Only Half the BattleThe independent commission finally called it cheating. Now we wait to see if they have the stomach to restore sporting integrity. 3211

Scott Willis @scott.cannonstats.com · 25/09/2026Wow. That is big Manchester City news breaking on the 115 charges. I wish that we got a bit more details about it but that is certain to shake everything up. What comes next after this? This has to be huge punishment right? 9750

Scott Willis @scott.cannonstats.com · 23/09/2026This is a bit of a narrative violation and something that surprised me, but Arsenal lead the Premier League in Counter/Fast Break xG and have the 3rd most goals and shots. Obviously early and small sample size. This is probably one of those where they aren't doing bad but can do much better still. 1140

He's well described by xG and his + skill is getting more high quality chances than other players. 0130
Scott Willis @scott.cannonstats.com · 22/09/2026One of the things I did here, was do some hyper analysis of the goals that Arsenal conceded against Brighton. The team can do better but I come away still thinking those aren't "bad" shots to concede all things considered. They are 4% and 6% chances. www.cannonstats.com/p/brighton-v...cannonstats.comBrighton vs Arsenal: The DebriefA tough day at the office on the south coast 240
