Premier League clubs approve changes to associated party transaction rules
The proposed changes came into play after an independent tribunal found some aspects of the APT rules to be unlawful following Manchester City’s lawsuit.
Tottenham Hotspur vs Cardiff City ended in a 1-0 win for the hosts and Lilywhites manager Mauricio Pochettino was a relieved man after the full-time whistle in the English capital.
Eric Dier’s 8th-minute strike was the difference as the Premier League newcomers ended the Premier League fixture with 10 men on the pitch after Joe Ralls’ red card in the 58th minute.
Here’s the Argentine giving his thoughts on the fixture to Spurs TV:

The North Londoners registered their third win on the trot and as a result, moved upto third in the rankings, ahead of London rivals Chelsea.
The Blues play Southampton on Sunday and could overtake Pochettino’s men should they secure three points against Saints, however.
After eight games played, Spurs have a points tally of 17 and remain one of the favourites to make the UEFA Champions League spots.
