Kenny Huang won't be using sovereign Chinese money to spend on Liverpool, just as Sheikh Mansour hasn't used sovereign Abu Dhabi money to spend on City. It's all just tabloid bullshit written by people who haven't got a clue what they're writing about.
He's obviously got a ton of money behind him though. Bring it on, I say. This isn't bad news for us, but it's devastating news for the rags. Just means we might have a bit of healthy competition, which can't be a bad thing.

if the chinese take over it will be with one thing in mind & one only. to make money. not to raise the international profile of china & certainly not some dewy eyed sentimentality to keep a bunch of depressed scousers happy. they'd pump money in all right but purely as a business investment & only enough to keep liverpool's profile in china and neighbouring countries high enough to make shit loads of money from selling merchandise & tv rights there.

The only way they will be challenging for the league is if they spend £150-200 million on world class players. Most of the ones available have already moved and the takeover is nowhere near complete so i doubt any deals will happen in this window
even huang has promised a 150 m pound transfer kitty for hodgson , for ambani its nothing .This guy has splashed money in IPL for his own cricket team around 200 million , which is staggering amount to be invested in a cricket team.
Well he is nearly as rich as Mansour, more on the Abramovich level, but you forget whoever comes in has to fork out say £400 million on a stadium to start with. With the cricket, it is a staggering amount but do you care to remind me what is India national sport

Such as? We've just bought Yaya Toure and David Silva. Two players who are highly rated by a lot of people within football and performed consistantly for two top Spanish club sides. What players are the next step up? Messi, Villa, Ronaldo, Rooney, Xavi, Iniesta?

I probably worded it wrong, a Liverpool with money would be a problem for us if we were after the same top class players, the Liverpool name is a big plus in their favour.

cricket doesnt need huge investment as player transfers arent as exorbitant as football event though cricket is india's national sport but still he spent that much amount , mostly on buying the franchise bid is staggering huge.he is def. richer than abramovich , he is worlds 4th richest lad acc. to forbes and his private consortium "reliance" is india's biggest .
