Barca Player Dani Alves Only learned that Manchester had two teams 5 years ago

'I didn't realise until about five years ago that Manchester had two teams,' said Alves. 'Of course Manchester United have been one of the most famous and successful clubs in Europe for many years - but I thought they were the only one.'
'When Manchester City got new owners and started buying some of the best players in Europe everybody knew who they were - but until then I must be honest I didn't know about them.

This is such an insult, I would have kept my mouth shut:

I think this is the reality of modern football. You don't need ten or 20 years to establish yourself - if you have rich owners you can do it in two or three years. It doesn't matter if I or anybody else agree with it - it is just the reality of today.'

Well to be fair to Manchester City, Dani Alves probably doesn't know that there are two clubs in Barcelona.

Well the same could be said about many Americans. City was a pretty mediocre club until their Arab sugardaddy bought them.

That's Bho level trolling.

I posted a picture of the programs. Don't think any City fans are ashamed of that fact?

The man is just being honest. City hadn't won a trophy in 35 years before that oil money brought the FA Cup in 2011. Doubt many young Brazilians were following City when he was coming through and they were playing in the lower divisions.This post was edited on 2/19/14 at 12:18 pm
