Asia is a gigantic market, and a fairly loyal one. If they really push the city brand and sign the big players the oil money could easily create a huge huge market for city. The fact remains though that until they are a top 4 club playing champions league football they won’t be in the top. As someone who lives in the U.S. I know that the only brands they sell are top clubs.

Chelsea being so high up is quite surprizing. I must admit I never would have thought they’d be bigger than A.C. Milan.

But using them as a model for Man City probably won’t work.

Chelsea had a pretty good team, and all the money spent on them was just the icing on top of the cake.

Man City don’t have that cake… or sponge… they’re more like bread at the moment.

How did Chelsea get there? Wer they well known before all the money flowed in and brought success. I suppose Manchester City are thinking along those lines. Not so fanciful perhaps.
