It's Quiet 17 - Glory Thread

Isn't it funny how we subconsciously try to save Sheikh Mansour a few quid each time we go after a player?

Guy has just paid £600m for a 'boat'.

If he had let Blue Moon broker it, we would have at least got him £500k off the toilet roll holders ;)
It’s a very nice super yacht to be fair and only second in size to Dilbar… It’s the longest yacht though so guess that’s all he’ll care about. I’d also be surprised if it only cost $600m as well (yes I realise how crazy that sentence is lol), Roman and a few others like good old Jeff have built smaller yachts for $1b!
Don’t forget it also costs 10% minimum of the build value to maintain and run these yachts every year… that’s a minimum of £60m just to keep it ticking over lol. Mind blowing numbers.

It helps when you can fill the tank for free, however!

Abu Dhabi breaks even on a barrel of oil at $8.

Yeh it’s crazy the cost out there, we are looking at possibly a move to Dubai next year for my wife’s work and currently fuel is around 18p a litre! No wonder they all drive super cars.
 
Haha, I'm trying to visualise the boat that the collective brilliance of BM would procure on his behalf. Just the thought of it is making me chuckle but then I am easily amused.

Go for it! Aside from the heat, it looks like an incredible experience for you both.
I was worried about the kids but there’s a great community of Brits out there and schooling is funded by her work. It’d be a better education too no doubt.
Expensive flying home each week to watch city though ;)
