People are saying that the Premier League is becoming a duopoly of the two Manchester clubs, and they're right, it is. But the Premier League power struggle is just one big cycle for the upper level clubs. you become powerful, you win titles then you go into decline, then new people buy you, pump money and your back at the top. All the big clubs are like this. Liverpool are the best example, they used to be the best team, then we went into decline for the first 19 years of the premiership, we were bought by some American company and now we're heading back to the top (though slowly). Man City were getting worse and worse, on the final day of the 07/08 season they lost 8-1 to Middlesbrough, rich Qatari businessmen saw it, brought in the best talent from all over the world and now lead the Premiership. Same for Chelsea, getting worse but then bought by Roman Abramovic. The same thing will surly soon happen to Arsenal. The only teams that declined and are still not good is Blackburn and Newcastle (though they were only good because they had Kevin Keegan) They say it's bad for the Premier League and they'll say the same thing when Hull City are bought by Qatari businessmen, we buy Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo and get Jose Mourinho as manager and be the first british team to do the quad.
