Abu Dhabi Prince Buys Manchester City

They just spent more $ on one Brazilian then it costs to get an MLS expansion team.

Think these guys will look into buying any American teams?

Basketball has the most global appeal, but Baseball is the only one without a salary cap.

This move will make Man City a player in the EPL from here out.

That doesn't even include salary. Just $ to buy players.
The Americans that own United and Liverpool can't sell fast enough.

Now that Abu Dhabi princes have their toy, their cousins in Dubai are going to up the offer for Liverpool, so they'll still make a ton of money if they sell now. They just can't hold on to them and compete.

It's becoming ridiculous. Manchester City = a bunch of tool bags.

The former owners (i.e. the former Prime Minister of Thailand) or the current owners?
