They have an interested buyer from Abu Dhabi

All this oil money talk and both United and Liverpool have been linked with buy outs from middle eastern oil sheikhs. Their entire fan bases will use that oil as fuel to combust from their hypocrisy.

besides the factor what's the difference between being owned by a Middle Easter Oil Sheikh vs. An American Businessman?

Agreed, on every point. I get angry whenever I think about the WC, because the talent was there. Tite’s mismanagement was the problem.

The tide of public opinion is turning on him though and rightfully so. If he doesn’t bring the Copa America home next year he might not make it to Qatar. Talent wise there won’t be a better team in the tournament, but we’ll probably end up getting knocked out by Japan or something.

We'll probably win it as there really isnt any competition in South America, Argentina has managed to be more self-destructive than we are, Chile could win only if they play the Argentines in the final, and Colombia really have no chance..then Tite will be given an 8 year extension and will be crowned king and prophet and untoucable once again.

Drogba falls just short of USL Trophy in final match of legendary career

And so Drogba bows out with one Champions League, four Premier League titles, four FA Cups, three League Cups, two Premier League Golden Boots, one Turkish Super Lig title, one Turkish Super Cup and two African Player of the Year awards, among other miscellaneous trinkets hither and thither.

A true Premier League great who always brought it in the big games for Chelsea and the man who almost single-handedly invented the modern day “lone striker” role: holding play up, occupying multiple defenders, winning soft freekicks, efficiently converting chances, scoring decisive goals: he had it all.

He also made Danny DeVito squeal with delight…

It was the Twins remake we all wanted to see.

Perhaps… now Drog has more free time on his hands… Maybe?

Glazers take 50 cents of every dollar Man U makes. Sheikh Mansour pumped in millions till the club became self sufficient, built a new academy and building up the surrounding areas. Also look at how Arsenal is being run. More often than not American businessmen plunder these teams.
