If Chelsea don't finish in the top 4?

The FFP rules are just so that UEFA can be seen to be doing something.

They don´t mean anything in reality.

But Chelsea arent a big club

We are about to remove the heavy part of that wage bill iñ the summer,but as all ready said, the majority of that wage bill is exempt uñder FFP rules.

Mr C

If Spurs cañ do it, so cañ we.

They have already said that they won't be able to throw anyone out of CL. I don't actually think the FFP will affect anyone at all

Nope, out of all the sides chasing CL football (that includes Spurs btw, their position is far from secured yet), we're the team best equipped for a fast return should we lose out. Problem is the longer it lasts the harder it is, so that first season without CL football would be pivetal.

FFP is to ensure Bayern, Barca, Real, United etc aren't challenged by the likes of Malaga, PSG, Chelsea and City

I have no idea whether they will work or not, but the big clubs in Europe including Chelsea and City have signed up for FFP.

Bubbles, the clubs you mention are not in breach of FFP. The Bundesliga has strict financial rules, R. Madrid make profits every year and Barca made a small loss last time out, well within what UEFA will allow. There seems to be a myth peddled that R. Madrid and Barca are in breach and people rehash it. Debt, no matter how huge is not a problem unless the club cannot service it.

but the big clubs in Europe including Chelsea and City
