yeah he deserves a lot of credit cos tactically he was spot on. They had a game plan that worked and they stuck to it. They play the most god aweful football ive seen though.

Fair play.

Why apparently? I'd be surprised if many clubs were actually making a profit.

I'm sure I must have heard somewhere that Real Madrid overtook them last year as the world's richest club. I honestly can't remember where I heard that from though, but then again the current figures published doesn't take into account the purchase of Wayne Rooney.

I think the clubs in England that I can remember that have made a profit (apparently) over the last year or two are Man. Utd, Aston Villa and Sheffield Utd. There's probably numerous more stingy clubs as well

No. Abramovic is richer. Man United's assets murder Chelsea's. As a business, United are bigger than anyone in the world. Real Madrid are second to us. I'll piss myself when I hear Chelsea are hundreds of millions in the red.

I really doubt Madrid are doing that well, considering they had to sell their training ground a few years back to pay off some of their debts. If anything I'd take a guess at Juventus being the only club anywhere near Utd, although that could well have changed by now.

Like I say, our profits aren't as good, but as long as Abramovich is in charge I am willing to bet we are richer, since he clears our debts and sticks shitloads into the transfer kitty.

We have a new training ground on its way, and plans to add a further 10,000 to the stadium, no way are we anything like in the red.

chelsea will be fine for now, it's when Abramovich gets bored and takes his money elsewhere, thats when they need to worry. i can see him walking away in the future leaving them hundreds of millions in debt.

I dont know about Real Madrid, i think its very strange how they have a new president ever year, surely this cant help their financial situation.

Real Madrid don't have a new president each year. I think they elect a person every four years, and Perez has a second term now as president after winning the election in the summer.

Undoubtedly Man Utd make the most profits, but I don't think being the richest club is based solely on profits - I assume it must include assets, revenue etc. which is why Real must be one of the richest in the world. Last year Leeds Utd made the top 20 richest clubs list even though they were £80 million in debt!!

im stil not sure on the Madrid situation ill i know is every summer you read how if Mr Big is elected president he will sign beckham then Mr Little bit Bigger says well When im elected ill sign owen etc.

United make quite a bit of their money from the asian fans dont they as they have a large fan base over there

The King of Spain bought the Real Madrid training ground for about £120 million, and then signed the deeds back to the club

Keown's been told he can leave, apparantely because of a row with Micky about his management or something. Matt Elliott's back fit again though, and there's this young defender called Richard Stearman who looks good so we don't really need to be keeping £15,000 a week players who aren't guaranteed regular football.

Palace have signed a young Australian called Anthony Danze i think.

Barcelona are said to be interested in Anders Svensson

Sir Alex Ferguson is reluctantly preparing to put Wes Brown up for sale in the January transfer window after the defender turned down a new contract.

The 24-year-old would become a free agent in the summer, forcing the club to sell him at the earliest opportunity or lose him for nothing under the Bosman rule. Brown is reported to be one of the lowest-paid players in United's first-team squad and has asked for a sizeable wage increase to bring him in line with his team-mates - however the club appear unwilling to meet his demands because of the player's susceptibility to injury.

A clearly irritated Ferguson told the Guardian: "We've made the boy an offer and he's turned it down. It's his decision. He can please himself - there are no more talks planned that I'm aware of. We'd like to avoid the situation where he leaves on a free transfer. If he wants to stay we would love that, but if he wants to look elsewhere that's up to him - there's nothing you can do with modern-day footballers."

Brown has switched agents and is now represented by SFX.

"He has changed his agent - I don't know why," said Ferguson. "He's got an agent that has given him advice that I do not understand. I think the problem is with the agent, not the player."

Wes brown is an idiot - the only way he's gonna get paid more than he's earning is if he goes to a team like Middlesbrough or Birmingham City. How many players over the past 10 years have walked away from Man Utd and had an even successful career elsewhere??

I'd love to see Brown at Villa but I can see him going to 'Pool or Newcastle

He'll end up staying, probably. Ferguson is calling his bluff.
