<\/a>Crystal Palace feel outraged \u2013 but CAS ruling sparks vital question over multi-club ownership<\/p>\n

As Crystal Palace talk about \u201cshattered hopes and dreams\u201d in a strident statement, specifically criticising the European football power structure, there was some bristling within Uefa. In Nyon, sources say, there had been considerable \u201csatisfaction\u201d that the rigour of their rules on multi-club ownership was adhered to in the Court of Arbitration ruling on Crystal Palace\u2019s appeal<\/a>. Emotion against the letter of the law, they may claim.<\/p>\n

Forest stand to be promoted to the Europa League given Palace\u2019s demotion to the Conference League<\/a>, so had been named as respondents to the appeal. Lyon, the third party in the case, were allowed to keep their Europa League place over Palace due to \u201csporting merit\u201d.<\/p>\n

\"\"The vital question posed by CAS ruling on Crystal Palace<\/a><\/p>\n

Comment: The Eagles will now play in the Conference League after the Cas verdict on Monday aligned with Uefa\u2019s decision on multi-club ownership, but Miguel Delaney argues the real issue will not go away in European football<\/p>\n

<\/a>Where it went wrong for Jack Grealish at Man City \u2013 and how Everton can fix him<\/p>\n

They had achieved great success together before their paths diverged. The strategist might have envied the charisma of his ally but despite their different characters, men with a shared affection for Manchester City<\/a> seemed in harmony with each other in the good times.<\/p>\n

Then, suddenly, they were together again. Still, enough about Noel and Liam Gallagher. Pep Guardiola<\/a> and Jack Grealish<\/a> bumped into each other at Oasis\u2019s homecoming gig at Heaton Park.<\/p>\n

This, however, was a briefer reunion. They, it transpired, neither need each other nor believe in one another, not anymore. The Gallaghers may bring in a nine-figure sum for their second coming.<\/p>\n

<\/a>Tottenham ready to beat Arsenal and sign Eberechi Eze after opportunity emerges<\/p>\n

As reported in the Independent’s ‘Inside Football’ newsletter on Friday, Spurs have ramped up interest in the 27-year-old after the injury to James Maddison<\/a>, amid a widespread belief that the saga might finally come to a head by the start of the Premier League season. That would coincide with the expiration of Eze’s release clause for this window.<\/p>\n

Arsenal have long been interested in Eze<\/a>, and are viewed as the Crystal Palace player’s first preference, but the fact that no proper transfer bid has yet materialised means there is a chance for Spurs to move forward.<\/p>\n
