The thing with City is they have basically a state funding behind them from the UAE,Moshiri is one guy who's finances are no where near what City have,The Mansour family are worth 2 trillion dollars with their assets and Shiekh Mansour on his own is reputed to be worth 20 billion dollars,Moshiri alone is worth 1.9 billion dollars.
They have spent just over a billion on player aquisitions since 2008 and that will be rising the next 3 seasons with Pep in charge,their owners/state have also spent hundreds of millions on a Etihad stadium expansion and brand new Etihad training ground/academy/campus and the rejuvenation in the surrounding area around of the Etihad,and it has not even put a dent in their owners finances.
City also have commercial revenues of 173 million pounds with most of it coming from owner/state linked deals from Etihad Etislat Aabar Arabtec and AbuDhabiTourism.
City are on another level financially,let's hope those rumours about Mansour's brother Shiekh khalifa buying the RS are BS as well.
