what amazes me is how far ahead Man U is over the rest of the world

i, honestly, believe that this is because they've won over the majority of soccer fans in the US...even people who aren't fans of soccer and have never watched in their lives know who Man U is.

the most popular team in the states is DC United...and believe 100% that it's only because they have United after their name.

Same goes for Real Madrid, Milan, etc those big clubs (not teams... I mean, clubs). Even people who don't know anything about soccer at least know their name.

About the US influence... maybe. Maybe because Glazer was the first american to buy a club (I think he was the 1st). And all that media thing around the takeover. Maybe because all this new american hype on buying English clubs.

But I think the most important thing for this ranking is Asia. I mean, the future IS Asia.
And everybody knows United and R.Madrid the ones there.

Villa in debt!? We've never spent anything to be in debt! Doug Ellis was in charge of us for 38 years and never spent a penny! He was ousted from the board in 1979 and returned in 1983.

Villa's honours in that period of time without him?

League Champions - 1981

European Cup Winners - 1982
1-0 Vs Bayern Munich

European Super Cup Winners - 1983
0-2 and 3-0 Vs Barcelona

With him.. Er... a couple of League Cups. Obviously his ambition is being mediocre! R7 has got me all angered up now, I thinks I shall start a riot! (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/mad.gif)

As long as we're winning silverware I couldn't give a monkeys where we end up on some stupid list. We've got a billionaire owner anyway! (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/cool.gif)

Really don't have a clue how Arsenal so high. Of all the big European sides, they are surely one of the poorest. They uy few players, and when they do, they are hardly bank-balance breakers. Just ridiculous.

Exactly, and I'm pretty sure that I've read somewhere that they are up to their neck in depth because of the new stadium.

Besides, this is not how much money a club has, but about it's value. If for example I where to buy Milan off Silvio it would cost me well over 400 million pounds. There's a difference between the 2 things

That is true, but it is only recently that the US tuned in to watch the EPL ... English clubs are amongst the highest paid teams in the world (excluding NBA, MLS, and NFL). Cuz they recieve money from Barclays (official sponsor of EPL) for almost every action they do ..

i think you mean MLB...I make more than most MLS players do

Nah .. The stadium was built by the sponsors, Emirates, and the sponsors own the stadium for several years .. I think Arsenal got there, because of how they ended their season last year. Plus, the Emirates stadium's capacity is double that of Highbury, so that should be taken into account too. While Milan have had problems filling the San Siro.

But in reality, Milan is worth (as u said) much more than 400M, in fact buying Arsenal would be very cheap compared to Milan
