That defeat last season to Barcelona, coupled with the position Qatar find themselves in politically in the middle east, seems to have spurred this huge show of wealth and power.
Obviously PSG and City are both extreme examples of what happens when Arab states want to give themselves a visible platform and market presence in the west and it's hardly surprising that those 2 are dominating the market and setting the tone again. Doesn't really matter where players like Neymar and Mbappe end up because neither of them were ever going to end up at United anyway. There's no point in getting annoyed, football has long since made its bed in terms of letting these financially doped clubs act with utter impunity and i've long since ceased to be shocked at anything that happens when you're dealing with unlimited amounts of money and corrupt, greedy people. |

As if United would ever shell out 190m up front all at once. United are at the end of the day a business, and they'll make business decisions. We're in a market where the tone is being set by clubs with the entire financial weight of a country behind them. I'm actually surprised United have spent as much as they have tbh. |
