Arsene Wenger has, rather surprisingly, defended Manchester City in their legal dispute with the Premier League.
The Citizens have been dominant in the Premier League for the last six years, winning four EPL titles in a row.
However, Pep Guardiola’s side, who recently thrashed Sparta Prague 5-0 in the Champions League, are currently facing a lawsuit.
Man City are currently facing 115 counts for alleged Financial Fair Play violations from 2009 to 2018.

)
He told beIN SPORTS, “I feel the rules of Financial Fair Play today have to be changed in the Premier League.
“Because they now face competition from other leagues, who have changed their Financial Fair Play rules.
“At the moment you cannot hear a club like Man City being charged by 115 different charges in a football season. I don't believe in that.
“The Premier League already lost a case, the first case against them. I don't know them [City], I can't judge them.
“I just think, 115 different charges against a football club today looks like we are in an international administration.
“Financial Fair Play rules have to be changed and made more simple. They [City owners] came in and they had not faced any Financial Fair Play nor have Chelsea.
“Chelsea, they bought my players [from Arsenal] and Chelsea also bought what they wanted because there was no Financial Fair Play rules.”
