A comparison between F1 teams and Premier League teams:
McLaren and Liverpool: Still trading on a glorious history but very unlikely to ever achieve the same levels again. Fans believe they in some way deserve to be dominating and winning.
Williams and Arsenal: The bloke at the top really doesn't realise how out of touch he is with the modern sport and can't accept that fundamental change is needed in management style and systems. Well managed financially but then money isn't really that much in sport is it? Occasional moments in the sun but these are getting fewer and fewer.
Red Bull and Chelsea: They came in with a huge pile of cash, shook up the establishment, won everything there was to win but now are struggling just a little bit as newcomers take their place. Still there or there abouts but probably on the decline.
Mercedes and Manchester City: Many decades ago they were a top team. They virtually disappeared but then some men with very deep pockets came in, bought up all the best players and managers and wiped the floor with the opposition. This is likely to continue for some time until those picking up the costs get fed up and clear off.
Anyone have any others?
