Arsenal Weigh Philosophical and Practical Impact

Arsenal self-financed a stadium move while limited to spending half of turnover on wages. Between 2009 and 2014 several players departed for City. The club instructed lawyers to reserve rights to compensation within the relevant time frame. Growth was constrained by adherence to financial rules during the period of more than £900 million in misstated revenue from 2009 to 2018. Any revision of past seasons would likely focus on those years.

Liverpool See Lost Opportunities Beyond Titles

Liverpool could gain one Premier League title from 2013-14 and one League Cup from 2015-16 under a reallocation. The club finished second by a single point in two seasons with tallies of 97 and 92 points. Sources indicate the hierarchy believes later campaigns under the manager would have yielded more success without the financial advantage. The club is evaluating options ahead of any sanctions decision.

United Examine Lost Earnings and Prestige

In 2015-16 the club placed fifth while City took fourth. Missing a Champions League place in 2016 carried an estimated £25 million cost offset by £5.5 million from the Europa League and £3 million per home game across seven matches. The club reserved rights alongside the other three sides.
