Forbes is actually more articulated with far more correct values closer to the truth

MoR2:
because of 1.7 million euros person no go hear word again abi

Manchester United have been named as the highest revenue generating club in world football for a tenth time, topping the 2016-17 Deloitte Football Money League with an income of €676 million (£581m).
United were awarded €44.5m in payments from UEFA for winning the Europa League last season, over four times more than Atletico Madrid recieved for claiming the trophy in the 2011-12 campaign, which was enough to place them above Real Madrid in second.
The Liga giants claimed the Spanish top-flight title in 16-17, as well as the Club World Cup, the Spanish Super Cup and their second Champions League trophy in as many years. Their success led to the club generating €674.6m (£579.7m) of revenue, though it was not enough to surpass United as the richest club. The €1.7m margin between the two superclubs is the narrowest ever recorded.
Barcelona rank third in Money League with a revenue of €648.3m (£557.1m), with Bayern Munich (€587.8m/505.1m), and Manchester City (€527.7m/£453.5m) completing the top five.
A record ten English clubs feature in the top 20, generating a total revenue of €3.8bn, helped by the fact that 16-17 was the first season of the current record Premier League broadcast rights deal.
Tim Bridge, senior manager in the Sports Business Group at Deloitte, comments: “The Deloitte Football Money League has a particularly English feel this year and with the new broadcast deal and UEFA competition performance driving broadcast revenue growth of over half a billion pounds for those in the top 20, it doesn’t come as a surprise. As the Premier League is currently in the middle of its rights tender for the next cycle from 2019/20, the results of this will be crucial to determining the long term composition of the Money League.”
Three clubs from Germany, three from Spain, three from Italy and one from France feature in the top 20.
Dan Jones, partner in the Sports Business Group at Deloitte, said: “European football continues to flourish financially, with almost half a billion Euro of revenue growth for the top 20 Money League clubs. And at the top, we’ve seen the closest ever battle for the top spot, with Manchester United pipping Real Madrid to retain their title of the highest revenue generating club in the world. United generated £581m in 2016/17."
In total, the combined revenue of the top 20 clubs grew six per cent to €7.9bn, a new Money League record, but how do the clubs rank overall? Goal takes a look.

These are all lies... Go and read the comments under this article from goal.com, don't be deceived, barcelona are currently on top of revenues, I think it was a record breaking 700+ revenue posted

MoR2:
so you dey enjoy play middleman to play middleman easy for your eye abi.

them never use my guy play middleman for 30mins before

You wanna compare a rondo of more players to 2-3 in the middle vs the art of bus parking

larride:
Please tell us a story grandpa.

Kid ain't your headache, now go back to jumping around. Thanks

Lana1:
Oh yeah...Betis is now the benchmark for getting all of Europe scared.

Huddersfield 2 - 1 United
Huddersfield 1 - 3 Chelsea
Maybe Barca and the rest of Europe should be scared of Chelsea since we all want to be childish. Abeg go sit down.

At least Ddipset understood my post and where i was coming from. The rest of u just bleating up & down while jumping to conclusions half-cocked!

Keep shifting the goal post, it was in reference to how betis has performed this season, don't just jump into a discuss you have no idea about, who cares about huddersfield, man u n Chelsea, the time to focus on Chelsea is coming not now

diggz:
Raumdeuter.... I can see your student is learning very fast....

Ain't trying to be proud here or sarcastic, let me not talk about playing football, when I started watching the game, you were still been wrapped by napkins, that's even if you were even born then

Guess seun gotta devise a means of reducing the way kids with 10mb n a browsing phone flood Nairaland daily

Neymar1095:
Infact yes phaasaam is my 2nd account.

Must you confirm it when people say you have got juvenile delinquency n stupidity traits, stick to football discuss kid... Qed

If you and your cohorts can fail in as little as observing n spelling correctly my profile name, I guess ignoring you would be the way to go

diggz:
Only league??......Shameless apari

That's the most honest competition, 38games... Most important competition, ucl is only glamorous

Greatihex:
can you explain to us how playing defensive is easier than total expression and total attacking football.

Lace your boots, and try playing amateur football, maybe an Academy in Nigeria, it would give you a clue why parking the bus n closing passing n shooting lines is easier than coming out and trying to play expansive attacking football, explaining wouldn't do the discuss any favour, rather experiencing it

diggz:
Upgrade kwa? If he likes he should lead the pl with 100points by January...we have seen the Wenger's invincibles conquer the local league, so nothing special in Pep and his team.....we have seen raneiri do it in his first season with Leicester, conte with cfc , Mancini even won the local league ....same with pelligrini so ki ni big deal?

Explain to us why Pep chose to destroy pelligrinis ucl work.....

Even the invincibles didn't do 18 straight wins brother,

Which ucl work, getting to the semis You epl fanatics are hilarious to say the least, keeping eating your humble pie at least this season, and continue shifting the goal post, it's one of the few things you guys are adept at

nezzar:
Lol

I guess Madrid loaned him out

Plays for villareal, outright sale

nezzar:
this is my 2nd account sa

NO p, I hardly have time for one account here not to talk of two. It's past tho, focus on the discuss

raumdeuter:
Same with Kimmich

You are wrong again, he moulded Kimmich and moved one of the best right backs in the world to the middle to accommodate a player he was working on

nezzar:
How many accounts do you have Bro

You open an account few months back and have the guts without proof to spew thrash, let me ignore you small pickin, so we can focus on the discuss on the thread

nezzar:
How many accounts do you have Bro

Go to barca thread, I antagonize Neymar dude big time

nezzar:
Neymar1095 second account spotted

Lools, you have started smoking your weed again bro
Go and check when this profile was opened, all this nairaland kids ehn, I would flog you now o, oya run to mama she is calling you at the kitchen

nezzar:
Neymar1095 second account spotted

Lools, you have started smoking your weed again bro

raumdeuter:
And why didn't he make them world class under his watch like Guardiola did for Busquets

Pique wasn't even established, little game time at man u

nezzar:
He wasn't given enough time in the club

Excuses upon excuses, 2-3yrs not enough
He needed the Fergie-kinda time frame I guess

Zinchenko n adarabioyo are coming up

nezzar:
He bought them

He didn't establish them

Now its a matter of English and interpretation, he could have bought the few he bought and put them on the bench, established should be more of more playing time, limelight etc, Kimmich wasn't established, Pedro wasn't, busquets wasn't, I remember sterling was almost on his way out of city, going by your view point, only kdb n sane were starters for their buli clubs

diggz:
You are proving to own the patent to unending phooolishness.....Keep grabbing at straws like the cure to the steewpidity in your genes depends on it......nothing can change the fact that he won it in his first season with Leicester.....while you are crying over that.....you can think of something phooolish to say about Conte doing same for cfc.

Now a simple question, has rainieri coached in the epl before he won it, if yes for how many seasons

nezzar:
I will slap u

Kimmich sane kdb stones and sterling were already established

You must be blind with those filthy fingers, established and world class must look the same to you, back of TV looker

raumdeuter:
Let's start from Sergio Busquets.

Now you mention one for Mourinho. From youth team to world class player

Pedro, busquets, Kimmich, sane, kdb, stones even improved, sterling so obvious

raumdeuter:
Fraudiola strolling to the league again

guess it should be fraudconte then, winning the league in his first season and struggling to replicate that when involved in more tourneys, we all know it's easier to be a defensive coach than an attacking, all expressing , total football coach

Twitter lifting dude busted!!!!

Neymar1095:
Nottingham forest has more champions league than Chelsea,man city, Arsenal and psg combined. History doesn't mean anything in today football.

Always shifting the goal post, we are waiting for your next twitter quote lift dude

Swissh:
How can you respect a One club Man who flops else where.

Another back of TV dude on the loose

Swissh:
Messi is great but not that special. Barca is build for him and am not sure he will survive some where else. His struggles with Argentina proves it.

Struggles Either you are hating, trolling or just plain blind, like my hommies would say, guy you dey watch back of TV??

Lana1:
Lmao.
Small 1-0 loss few days ago and u were shaking at how Madrid could still ve a better season than Barca and how the loss was a wake up call.

And now ordinary 5-0 against Betis and u're shouting Europe be scared.

Uncle Ddippshit stop saying nansense!!

Real madrid 0-1 betis is your answer, go back to the hole you came from
Also sevilla 3-5 betis, choke on those results
