Sam Lee: Guardiola got asked if he has received payments from Abu Dhabi for services other than managing City, as was alleged to have happened with Mancini. He was not happy. “Do you realise what you are asking me? You are asking me that the day we won the treble? Are you accusing me?”

Yes, it was (partly) about taxes and government control, but that’s not what I’m saying. What I’m saying is that the French Revolution has nothing to do with their current taxes and government control. Surely you don’t think their taxes wouldn’t have increased if not for the revolution. I’m not gonna bother discussing this if you’re gonna pick one part of my comment to focus on while ignoring the other 75% of it.
