It has little to do with money. Look at AC Milan, Chelsea, Real Madrid. Teams that have huge budgets, and make poor decisions. Look at teams in other sports, NY Knicks, NY Rangers, Washington Redskins, Baltimore Orioles and so many others. Huge payrolls and poor onfield performance. The Bundesliga's slide has been caused by its 3 top teams making poor decisions on talent, coaching and other things. Bayen Munich, Weder Bremen, Dortmund, Stuttgart have been left behind on the world stage by the other leagues through both a lack of vision, in world TV markets, a lack of young players wanting to play in their home country and bad decision making. Right now, with the English teams attracting so much world talent other lagues have to push for more worldwide exposure to compete.
