Is Chelsea in trouble after this year? Seriously, I have no idea other than they have spent a ton of money.

Chelsea have been exploiting loopholes to bend the rules that are now being closed

City meanwhile have been straight-up breaking them

It's not the spending too much money, it's finding illicit ways to spend money and refusing to cooperate with investigators.

It's a different sport but refusal to cooperate is why Saracens rugby team got relegated from the top division, rather than the other wrongdoing.

It's in the league's interest to bring heavy consequences for the non-cooperation. Teams need to make their accounts available to the league.
