Their infrastructure and outreach is incredible, they're currently one of the global giants in world football but in 20 years time they could well be THE global giant of world football. By the time any English club reaches their current level they're gonna be another 10 ahead. The ridiculous amount of money thrown at them built foundations that no current English club can come near challenging.

I can't see a single challenge on City or Liverpool and that's depressing.

The thing is Man United espouse to the world that they are the richest club in the world but it needs more then money to buy success as you need people who make the right decisions at the right times plus the club needs a coherent well thought out long term transfer strategy and not one made on the back of a fag packet with Ed Woodward as its clueless conductor of those financial riches.
