Man City In A Hurry

Thanks to their new owners Manchester City are probably the richest football club in the world at present. Many teams face an uncertain future thanks to the economic downturn but City is flexing the financial muscle. The fact they have attempted to sign the world?s best player is a statement of intent. If they do not secure the services of Kaka then they will simply move on to the next target.

The signing of Robinho was a stunner especially when you consider Chelsea looked like his preferred destination. That signing looks like being the first of many as the Abu Dhabi group try spending their way to success on the pitch. Money does not always guarantee success. The two Brazilians are as skillful as you like but they may not relish a muddy pitch in late November. They will also need high calibre players who are prepared to roll their sleeves up and get stuck in.

This is a curious way of building a team that has provoked some criticism. Managers like the late Brian Clough used to build teams from the back but Man City?s owners just like Roman Abramovich do not see things quite the same way. People with huge resources do not usually want to hang around and these guys want success in a hurry.

Arsenal seems to be fading this season and Aston Villa is on the verge of establishing themselves in the top four. A strong challenge from Manchester City in future will certainly spice things up where the title race is concerned. Money will probably have a massive impact at Eastlands because world class players want to be competing in the Champions League and winning trophies.
