Doesn't that uefa CL wildcard thingy start next year or year after to help the big clubs stay big??That will not last...if they continue to under perform year after year it will slowly but surely change...the only way they can now attract top players is by paying crazy wages for them...that will eventually put them into trouble as I don't see them playing champions league football for a number of years. The United brand is damaged unless they get new owners of course...
