MANCHESTER, England: The North West can claim to be the current capital of English football but while Liverpool and Manchester City head into the finale of an extraordinary Premier League title race, the biggest brand of all, Manchester United, are in crisis.

City are looking to retain the title they won in record-breaking fashion last year and secure their fourth Premier League crown in eight years. If they win their last three games, they will do just that. The 2-0 scoreline on Wednesday barely reflected the gulf in class between a United side lacking quality and character and a City team packed with leaders of the highest technical level.

Solskjaer could easily have said the same of Liverpool, a team that matches attacking flair with aggressive tenacity - exactly the combination United were famed for in the day when the Norway international was among their strikers.United can certainly match their rivals when it comes to having the financial resources to compete at the pinnacle of the game - indeed all three clubs have wealthy foreign owners.

United have foreign backers too in the Florida-based Glazer family, who also own the Tampa Bay Buccaneers of the National Football League, and the club boasts a range of commercial agreements and sponsorship deals with major global brands.
