as they say, all is fair love & war. But in this case i think that needs to be re-phrased as “all is fair with footie & billionaires”. The January transfer window might actually be more interesting than we think. can’t wait to see what they offer for C.Ronaldo. But as a Chelsea fan, do i really care? Let the fattest check books win.

Eventually every top European league will have the value of 4 Billionair clubs in their leagues. What does that mean? It means its just inflation and everyone will be in the same league again. Don’t expect Arab women at the grounds at Man city for support. I wonder if they will ban women and start controlling our morals to Shria laws?
Or it could go the otherway where acceptence of Westen values may change their own culture to more freedoms. That would be the day.

It’s a shame really its not illegal to have foreign inversters in football clubs or any sport. The days of national achievement and pride has gone, I’d rather have Seria A for being Italian than having to sell your inheritence to another part of the world. They buy English Clubs because no one fights to keep them English and the rule Britania mentality for success has made Britania less a word to associate with it. They want to ban the Red cross logo because it might offend, they want to ban Jesus crosses in public buildings and graveyards because of political correctness. Next St.Georges flag will be the wrong statement and you would be made to feel guilty. Look Britain don’t lose your soul to greed of success, I love Italian football, but if it ever got like England I won’t support it.

1. Ronaldo IS playing for the biggest club in the world.
2. All talk of ANY knowledge based on nationality is racist. Know that.
3. United isn’t scared but 4th place Liverpool might be scratching their heads.

manchester united, liverpool, and arsenal earned the money they make these days. it took years of work for them to be able to sign big players for big money. the chelsea and man city way of doing things is just hoping some billionare(s) come in and pump money into your club to get success without really earning it. don’t try to compare those who earned their success with those who bought their success, you’ll just end up looking stupid.

We all know that love of the shirt is what feeds ronaldo, mascherano et al. Not the obscene paychecks their respective teams hand out.

Man U, Chelsea and liverpool all attempt to buy the title and have been the big fish in the pond. Complaining when an even bigger fish moves in is just hypocrisy.

citeh fans, ask yourself one question.

is robinho playing for the love of the man.city badge on his shirt, or for the man.city signature on his paycheck?

in modern vernacular, it is simply called whoring.
