Mostly all glory hunt the top European clubs Barca/Real/PSG. Its hard work having a conversation about football here at the moment, Messi is shit now as he didn't sign for a Saudi club! Newcastle allegedly will win everything next season as well. They think they will/can buy any player from Europe/prem and in 5 years the established leagues around the world will be begging for their players. I gave up even trying to explain how state owning 4 League clubs doesn't make for a very competitive league, as the Saudi way of making things happen is just keep throwing money at it, until they get bored and move on to the next project. I'm sick of them constantly telling me Aston Villa are shit but haven't ever watched us play. To them we are, all that matters is first place!

I thought this was an interesting discussion. I guess in modern boring parlance, someone has to get DESTROYED or OWNED before a simple conversation becomes interesting.
