We've got £500,000,000,000 in the bank, we don't need to sell shirts yet. We need to concentrate on building a team before we start worrying about shirt sales.
Exactly .
Your club has a few quid now , so Beckham can do one .
I totally understand that sentiment , but if you didn't have a few quid , then perhaps you would have a different opinion of whether to get him in or not .
One thing you can't argue with though , is that the Beckham brand is still probably bigger than City's , and Countries who have no idea who Man City are , or even Everton for that matter , will certainly know who Beckham is .
Any club who buys him , especially in recent years , would go straight to the top of the ' who's who ' list , which is why he is such an attractive , and lucrative proposition for clubs , without even considering his qualities as a footballer .
has nothing to do with having a few quid. if 'brand beckham' were the only thing that could save us from relegation i'd still prefer he go sit atop a flagpole and spin his way to the bottom rather than sign for city on any kind of contract.
