This week's What If is centred on the biggest story in town: Manchester City's guilty ruling. Emma Paton is alongside The Athletic's Tim Spiers, Jack Pitt-Brooke and Dan Kilpatrick to discuss who was the most impacted by City's spending, and if that money hadn't been spent, where would the rest of the division be? What if the big signings they made went elsewhere, who else would they have signed in their place and what is an appropriate punishment?
