Brazilian are big but they dont have the tactical foresight of england. thus their players are sold and end up UK. like some african soccer players.
Lalit Modi is not following the moral ethics of doing bussiness. He is trying to get the franchise rights' base price at or above $225 million by mentioning english primier league's name. He is a cheat and his way of handling this ipl is very much dishonest.
Of the four clubs mentioned here. only arsenal are not in debt. man utd and liverpool are in huge debts.chelsea saw off much of its debts thanks to roman, but they still are in debts. and lastly the amount of money generated from IPL is miniscule to the revenues these football clubs generate. at least for now. maybe things will change in the future when IPL will be played round the year.
