The man behind the Manchester City billions

He was not the person the fans were expecting. You would think a old man covered with robes would make a appearance. But this was not to be, the fans were treated to a young youthful figure in his late 20's who looked like a young boy about to play with his new toy.

The 29-year-old is one of 19 sons of the UAE's founding father Sheikh Zayed. He waved to the crowd before he settled down to watch his £355million team take apart the once all powerful Liverpool.

Coach Roberto Mancini has a lot to smile about as on top of all the money already splashed out, owner Sheikh still has £14billion in his own bank account to add to the £1billion he has already spend on Manchester City. He also has access to the family oil fortune estimated between £400b and £1trillion.

Manchester City showed signs of a fantastic football team, and last in the second game of the season, Mancini's men showed they will be title contenders.

What awaits now are the mouth-watering clashes against Chelsea and Manchester United.
