Scene 1 (0s)

[Virtual Presenter] We would like to share with you that Leicester avoided a potential points deduction because they were a Championship club at the time of their relegation and the Premier League didn't have jurisdiction to punish them. The Premier League's accounting period ended on June 30, 2023, a month and two days after the Foxes were relegated from the top flight. This meant that the Premier League didn't have the authority to penalize the club, as they were a Championship club at the time. The Premier League expressed their disappointment with the decision, but Leicester welcomed it and hoped it would allow them to continue playing in the Premier League from 2019-20. The verdict has created a situation where any club that exceeds the threshold in these specific circumstances could avoid accountability. Leicester could have faced a points deduction had they been found to have breached financial rules. However, the appeal board's comprehensive decision was very beneficial for Leicester and allowed them to continue playing in the top flight. We hope this information is helpful for you..

The summer transfer window closes on September 13th, and we can expect to see more changes in the team.

Scene 27 (13m 59s)

[Audio] We want to focus on Everton, who lost 3-2 against Bournemouth at Goodison Park on Saturday afternoon. Despite their late collapse, we believe that Everton should be optimistic about the future. Everton is currently in the bottom half of the E-P-L table, and Roberto Martinez says that the Toffees must still hope that better times lie ahead of them. Despite their poor performance in the Premier League after a poor start to the season, we believe that there are four reasons why Everton can hope for better times. Firstly, Everton has a strong history in the Premier League, winning the title in 2016. This gives us a good foundation to build on and a sense of pride in our team. Secondly, Everton has a young and talented squad, with players like Tomas Walcott, Dominic Calvert-Lewin, and Mason Holgate showing great potential. We believe that with the right coaching and support, these players can reach their full potential and help Everton climb the table. Thirdly, Everton has a loyal and passionate fan base, with Evertonians always willing to support their team through thick and thin. This support can give Everton the boost they need to push for better results and climb the table. Finally, Everton has the opportunity to learn from their mistakes and improve their performance. We believe that with the right attitude and approach, Everton can turn things around and start climbing the table once again. In conclusion, we believe that Everton has the potential to improve and climb the table in the Premier League. We urge you to support Everton through this time and believe in their ability to achieve better results..

Scene 28 (15m 28s)

[Audio] Leicester City won the Premier League title for the first time in their history in 2015/16. They were found to have breached P-S-R (Professional Standards and Regulations) rules. As a Championship club at the time of their relegation, the Premier League didn't have jurisdiction to punish them. This decision exposed the ridiculous reality of P-S-R and proved that Everton supporters were right. Now, let's dive deeper into the details of the case. On the day that Leicester City won the Premier League title, Everton were the fall guys. Leicester City avoided a points deduction for breaching P-S-R rules. Everton have been without a point since the Foxes' 5000/1 title triumph in 2015/16. The game was Roberto Martinez's penultimate match in charge before he was axed by the Toffees. The game was also Roberto's last game in charge of Everton before he left the club in January. Andrea Bocelli performed a rendition of Nessun dorma for Roberto Martinez's side. This performance proved to be Martinez's penultimate match in charge before he was axed by the Toffees. In conclusion, the Leicester City verdict not only exposed the ridiculous P-S-R reality but also proved that Everton supporters were right. This decision has significant implications for the football industry and highlights the need for more transparency and accountability in the system..

Scene 30 (17m 3s)

[Audio] We believe Newcastle United has the potential to finish in the top four of the Premier League this season. Despite a tepid start, the Magpies have taken seven points from a possible nine available to them in their first three games of the 2024/25 season. Newcastle finished in the top four and Champions League football returned to Tyneside after a two-decade absence. We believe that the club can still get into the top four this season and that Howe, the current head coach, can lead the way in the next five years. In summary, Newcastle United is currently fifth in the table, but with a strong first three games, we are hopeful that the club can finish in the top four and return to the Champions League..

Scene 31 (17m 42s)

The Premier League expressed their disappointment as a result of the decision, as had Leicester been found to have breached financial rules, they could have faced a points deduction. However, the appeal board ruled in favor of Leicester, and the club welcomes this decision. Leicester hopes that the verdict will allow them to continue playing in the Premier League from 2019-20 and that it will create a situation where any club exceeding the threshold could avoid accountability in these specific circumstances..

However, Edozie will still return to St Mary's next summer with Europa League experience, as Maxwell Cornet will take over from the former Man City man's position. Anderlecht boss Russell Martin expressed his disappointment in the situation, saying I was gutted for Sam because it was too late to then find another opportunity.

Another major transfer story is the ongoing medical tests for Sergio Oliveira at Olympiacos in Greece. The Brazilian midfielder is on the radar of several clubs, including Manchester United, and a move to the Premier League is possible. However, with the summer transfer window closing on September 13, there is limited time for any significant signings to be made. Manchester United has already signed Victor Olimphen on a season-long loan deal from Fenerbahce. This move is a positive sign for the club, and it will be interesting to see how he performs alongside Cristiano Ronaldo and Paul Pogba. In addition to Casemiro and Oliveira, Manchester United is also set to lose several key players in the coming weeks.

The day that Leicester City won the title was a significant one for Everton. They had been accused of breaching P-S-R rules, but the Premier League didn't have jurisdiction to punish them. As a result, Everton had been without a point since 2015/16. This loss of points had a significant impact on their standing in the league. The performance of Roberto Martinez's side on that day was unfortunate. He was axed by the Toffees shortly after the game. The change in leadership had a significant impact on their performance. However, the verdict on Leicester City exposed the absurdity of the P-S-R rules. It proved that Everton supporters were right, and it was a reminder that the rules are not always fair or just.
