It's actually a Dubai state-owned investment outfit called Dubai International Capital. Not a single guy.

the most twisted and absurd question details posted ever - but very cleverly done, nice try - but United were always the richer club from the 50s , 60s, 70s and 80s. and beyond. success guaranteed more success. We proved ourselves and the managers in place use to build great sides and the spirit at the club was special as was the culture at teh club. LFC was more like a movement as opposed to a club. Keegan left and we replaced him with Dalglish. Why did Dalglish come to Liverpool ? cos of the success we'd achieved prior to him coming here - we use to sign impressionable players with quality no different to what other clubs were doing in England at the time. We just had managers who assembled the better XI's lol Souness - Dalglish - Hansen - Rush in the mid 80s were untouchable. Its a big shame Souness screwed up as manager when he got put in charge though tbh. The best example of a club spending millions and breaking transfer records yet still falling short of winning the league was Manchester United in the 1980's (1980-1989). All this business about The Moores being rich and using the £££ generated from the littlewoods pools thing is laughable lol 5 European Cups tells its own story ^_^ lol

Liverpool manager Rafa Benitez has welcomed the news that the Premiership club is poised for a £450m takeover.
Dubai International Capital (DIC), the investment arm of Dubai's government, confirmed on Monday that they were in talks about a possible buy-out.
"I have talked to the chairman (David Moores) and chief executive (Rick Parry) about this and I was pleased with what I heard," said Benitez.
"It is always good for a club to have more money and more possibilities."
Liverpool, five-times European champions, have given DIC permission to carry out a complete study of the club's financial records ahead of a possible takeover bid.
The proposed deal is expected to include £200m to build a new 60,000-capacity stadium.
This is very important in terms of the proposed new stadium, which is key to plans for the regeneration of the local community
"This is the latest step on the road of finding the long-term investment that the club needs," said Parry.
"This is very important in terms of the proposed new stadium, which is key to plans for the regeneration of the local community.
"On the pitch, Liverpool remains focused on winning and, here again, this is all about doing a deal that gives us the long-term resources to do that."
DIC chief executive Sameer al-Ansari said: "We hope we can agree a deal.
"Liverpool's investment requirements are well publicised. Hopefully this will provide us with the opportunity to fund its needs both on and off the pitch."
Both Moores and Parry stayed behind in Liverpool while the team flew to Istanbul for Tuesday's Champions League match against Galatasaray.
However, the deal is not expected to be concluded until early next year.
DIC owns the Madame Tussauds Group and the Travelodge hotel chain as well as one third of the London Eye.
The company is an investment arm of Dubai Holding, which is owned by Dubai Crown Prince and United Arab Emirates Prime Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum.
Sheikh Mohammed, whose family is internationally renowned for its running of the Godolphin horse racing stables, is the world's fifth richest man, with an estimated personal wealth of $10 billion.
Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashed Al Maktoum is a keen racing fan
"Already they (DIC) have demonstrated a full understanding of, and respect for, the club's heritage and values," added Parry.
