10 points deduction for Everton for Profitability and Sustainability breach in 2021/2022 Season , after very strong results recently they are down to 19th place with 4 points only , why always small teams get caught in Financial Fair play stuff and the teams that actually spend billions are in good positions

Not often I am proud of  football, but when Glasgow Rangers were found guilty of similar the club were dissolved, had to start again in the 4th Division & work their way back.  All the other clubs took a loss, but the rules were enforced.

To be fair, Turkey really was the home team in Berlin today  

 

Which is not to say it's not looking great for the Germans of course

 even stranger thing about the match is thst Kai Havertz played as aleft back and he caused the penalty that Turkey scored the winner from  he has scored opening goal for Germany though

Who could have guessed, Mario Balotelli has been involved in a big car accident (got off unhurt) and was most likely rather drunk.

I guess it had been quiet around him for too long, so he needed some new bit of drama to make sure everyone remembers he is still....well, that
