Man City 1 West Ham 2: Citizens left in crisis

Manchester City have almost definitely been plunged into crisis after losing 2-1 against West Ham. The Hammers reprised their role as the most bizarre side in the Premier League this season by inflicting upon the leaders their first defeat of the season through goals from Victor Moses and Diafra Sakho. A consolation strike from Kevin De Bruyne on his full debut could not quite rescue City’s unbeaten record, meaning West Ham have now defeated Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester City in their first three away games of this campaign, scoring seven goals and conceding just one in the process. Victory leaves Slaven Bilic’s side on 12 points from six games, just three behind City, for whom a second defeat in a week leaves them plunged deep into crisis mode. Manuel Pellegrini’s day started badly as playmaker David Silva was injured in the warm-up and had to be replaced by Jesus Navas. City had an early chance when Adrian punched away a Fernandinho header from a De Bruyne corner but any hopes the hosts had of taking charge were quickly dashed as the defence was caught out. Pellegrini had been forced to change his back four for the first time this season because of injury to captain Vincent Kompany and the reshaped rearguard afforded Moses too much space.

Manchester United revenue down, but Glazers are quids in

Manchester United’s income fell by £38m in 2014-15 due to the team’s failure to qualify for the Champions League, but despite that, the six children of the club’s owner, Malcolm Glazer, stand to earn £15 million from the year.
The five sons and one daughter of Malcolm Glazer will be paid $3.9m (£2.5m) each annually, as the majority shareholders of Manchester United plc, the United holding company.
In the 2014-15 accounts of Manchester United plc, the company announced it will pay a dividend of $0.045 (£0.03) every quarter, for each share owned by a shareholder.
The six Glazer siblings together own approximately 131m shares, 80% of the total issued, according to a spokesman for the club.
Although the club’s revenue was hit by the failure under former manager, David Moyes, to qualify for European football’s elite competition, United’s total income of £395m was still a Premier League record.
The figures show the impact of not playing Champions League football last season for the first time since 1995 and broadcasting and matchday revenue were hardest hit. Broadcasting revenue was down £28.1million to £107.7million, a drop of 20.7 per cent. Matchday revenue was down £17.5million, a fall of 16.2 per cent, to £90.6million.


United’s gross debt rose by 20.2 per cent to £411million, although this is partly down to volatility of the exchange rates.
Better news for United came with the club’s commercial performance, with sponsorship revenues up 14.1 per cent to £154.9million.
With the club back in the Champions League and with a new £750 million kit deal on the books, United are confidently predicting they will become the first English side to break the half-billion-pound mark for revenue for the current financial year.
Ed Woodward, United’s executive vice chairman, claims the results show the club were able to flourish despite missing out on the Champions League and will be much stronger in the next fiscal year.

“As we look to the new season, we are enthusiastic about our strong position, both on and off the pitch,” he said. The blip last year showed what he claimed was an ability to withstand “short term headwinds.
“Our record revenue and [underlying profits] guidance for 2016 reflects the underlying strength our our business and our confidence in its continued growth.”
