The season is not over yet and we are already hearing some crazy rumors from Manchester United's neighbor - Lionel Messi for 100m pounds. Um. Ah. Oh. Okay. Well I guess when you cannot get Kaka that money starts burning a hole in your pocket so might as well spend it somewhere else. The other rumor is that City will go after Wenger or Mourinho...um again. Where will the insanity stop?
Based on the recent Four Four Two survey of the most wealthy football related folks attests to, Manchester City are owned by the most wealth of all the footballing barons. So no surprise that this is the type of ridiculous banter being batted around in Manchester. What we should all fear, and what might happen with other teams such as Chelsea, is that City goes on a drunken sailor type spending spree, runs a business that is not self sustainable and in few years the owners tire of their play thing and dump the club. Footie seems to be more threatened by this type of behavior than other major sports leagues. I fear that footie could also suffer because of such cavalier handling of the business side of footie.
