In a rather stunning turn of events, Manchester City have been banned from the Champions League for two seasons and will also have to pay a certain compensation for breaching the rules of Financial Fair Play.

Who the heck is that?! Can you name all 25 of these obscure Man City signings...

Of course, this comes as a huge blow to the Citizens who have been aspiring to lift world football's most coveted trophy.

Needless to say, few saw this outcome looming for Pep Guardiola and his side but it still remains to be seen whether the ban will stand or whether City's appeal will be successful.

According to Graeme Souness, who spoke to Virgin Media Sport, however, the original sentence was still a bit too cruel as Man City are not the only culprit responsible for breaching the FFP rules.

Here's what he said in full:

"I think it's cruel on City. I don't believe they're the only club that's guilty of this charge."

But regardless of whether they are the only guilty club or not, that doesn't change the current situation.

That they may not be the only side to break the rules does not suggest they are any less culpable.

Still, we're yet to find out whether their complaints will be successful or not but it seems that not everyone is convinced this was a just ruling.

Meanwhile, Shaun Goater delivered a verdict on Pep Guardiola's future amidst the whole debacle with FFP...
