The Saudis are, but how wealthy is this guy? And more to the point, how much money does he want to lose?
Just because someone is rich, doesn't mean they are stupid when it comes to money (as we've found out from Hicks and Gillett). Hicks and Gillett will make a profit out of Liverpool.
I can only see three reasons why a billionaire would want to blow his money on a football team with huge transfers
1) They think they will get a profit in the end
2) They want to boost their ego (like Abramovich did)
3) They're not very smart with money, but they have a massive love for Liverpool football club.
Which do you think Prince Faisal is?
Also the Saudi family has huge amounts of wealth. But all that wealth isn't available to Prince Faisal.
I'm not especially keen on being owned by people who don't have any love for Liverpool, don't know much about football and who we don't really know anything about. I would rather we had been sold to Steve Morgan and have less money available. I bet the new stadium would have started being built though if Morgan was in charge.
you couldnt have said it any better pal. I also feel rather the devil you know, than the devil you dont know!
The saudi could be good, for sure, but fans seems to be naive and they think this self appointed prince will just buy massive players and not think of the money! These guys dont have money because they spend wisely, they know how to deal with the money.
Ask yourself this, do these saudi even know about the history of liverpool not 100 years ago, but just 20-25 years ago?
