Chelsea chairman Bruce Buck has criticised UEFA's Financial Fair Play laws. As many critics are now highlighting, Buck agrees FFP is more about maintaining the "status quo" than fixing spending problems.
"FFP, in essence but not entirely, goes a long way towards preserving the status quo. One of the great things about football in this country is that if you're the last club in League Two you can still hope that someday you'll win the Premier League.
"I think that is difficult now, if not impossible, due to Financial Fair Play.
"We would have preferred something that really dealt with the issue through stabilisation regulation. We had a broken finger and we cut off the arm.
"Having said that, FFP at the UEFA level is in effect, everyone wants to be in UEFA competitions, and we will do what we have to do to make sure that we comply with those rules."
