Good for Malaga...but i still feel that money is ruining football....maybe the investment should be matched by investment into malaga local , home grown football and facilities as well.

It is a win win situation, it is very easy in the spanish league to take the 3rd position, so qualifiying to the CL will be big step for Malaga, and bring more and more money, escpecially they are not spending big money, Nisteroy for free, toulalan 10 m euro, juaquin 6 m euro...

Sounds Interesting. The only thing that made the spanish league incomparable to the EPL is the lack of competition between teams... It's like barcelona and madrid are near to invincible, to the point it's boring to watch because the results are as clear as day from the start of the match... But bring more competition to it, and the spanish league will be the best league in the entire world, beautiful plays, incomparable technique, spanish league is technically better than EPL...

If Malaga invest cash intelligently (unlike Manchester City) and keep Pellegrini they will be one of the three top teams in Spain in the near future. AND contend for a CL final.

good thinking Al Thani....RVN, Mathijsen and Toulalan are impact players who can turn a game around and have really good numbers...Dzeko, SWP, Lescott, Milner and Roque Santa Cruz are all flops. The only good investment City made was David Silva and Tevez. Al Thani is being smart and not spending like crazy. Its what a NORMAL team wud do..

We've seen this before with Chelsea and Man City. I never believed Man City would climb so high but they fired the coach and continued to bring in quality players. Malaga will do the same if they have a good management team. They may not finish 3rd next season but it will come eventually. It will be good for La Liga and the injection of money into the region is good for the people. Everyone wins.
