Former Manchester United defender Mikael Silvestre refuses to believe the hype over Manchester City's growing global popularity.
The club's profile is growing across the globe, but Silvestre thinks they are still some way behind United.
The former defender believes football fans across the globe have been put off supporting City because of their hefty spending.
"The way they do their business, it doesn't get people to support them," Silvestre said.
"They might win trophies here and there but they won't gain support. I have been travelling a lot for United in the last six months.
"I have been to Asia, and the support there is unbelievable and honestly City is nowhere near that."
