Speed To Burn

[Jangle]

Well, it's certainly the greatest English team that "MONEY COULD BUY"...but I suggest that if you give anyone £400m they'd probably be able to do it too. Bottomline, I'm not impressed. Now, if you want to talk impressive, go back to the olden days when money was evenly distributed (more or less) and clubs got their surplus funds from expanding the fan base...now that era had teams that were impressive. Buying a team out of the pocketbook of rich arab or russian oil money? Not so much. Think about it.

You closest ManU fan you,,,,, I knew it all along!!!

[Paul Marin]

yuh didn't have a problem with it when it was your team spending money...hush...

Really? And when might that have been?

[Paul Marin]

You closest ManU fan you,,,,, I knew it all along!!!

????????????????????????? Put down the crackpipe and step away from the window...you mussi gawn mad. If Manu** was the only team in football, I would take up curling.

Andy Carroll...Stewart Downing...Luis Suarez....Jordan Henderson cost you $100 mil in 2011...yuh spent $100 mil the two years previous...yuh have amnesia?

[Jangle]

[Peter R]

Still doesn't add up to £400m...

[Paul Marin]

Andy Carroll...Stewart Downing...Luis Suarez....Jordan Henderson cost you $100 mil in 2011...yuh spent $100 mil the two years previous...yuh have amnesia?

Xcuse me...you need to apply a little bit of common sense.

First of all, stick to facts, we did not spend £100m on Carroll et al, and we did not spend £100m the years earlier. If I am wrong, prove it.

Second of all, how does your spending in the last 4 years has resulted in a squad value of £472m whereas ours is £285m...HUGE DIFFERENCE of £187m. That difference is equivalent to the squad values of 14 of the 20 prem clubs. KMT. With that kind of money, unu should be winning the quadruple fi true...bet u house pon' it nuh!

Anyway, your club is the new Chelsea* where buying titles has replaced true footballing mastery from the board room all the way down to the pitch...but feel no way...at least unu nuh tief (yet)!

*Chelsea has won more silver in the 10 years that Abramovich has owned them than they did in the 100 year prior history of the club...but they owe him £700m for that bit of business. Makes sense...but not to me.

Excuse me, when you arguing with big man don't bring evidence that can't past the test. You might impress Jangle, but by his own admission, he suffers from a head injury. So interpret that as you will. Now sir, how can you in all seriousness present a table of the most expensive transfers in Liverpool history by year and call that evidence? Really? That is hardly acceptable as proof of Liverpool's spending. So let's educate you about your team vs. mine when it comes to spending over the past 5 years. Here are the facts from transfermarkt.com:

CITY NET SPEND BY YEAR
2013--- €104.293.000
2012--- €17.650.000
2011--- €65.135.000
2010--- €144.842.000
2009--- €116.350.000
CITY TOTAL NET SPEND: €448,270 (£370,006)

LIVERPOOL NET SPEND BY YEAR
2013--- €24.450.000
2012--- €57.150.000
2011--- €43.560.000
2010--- (€3.975.000)
2009--- (€6.805.000)
LIVERPOOL NET SPEND: €114,380 (£94,415)

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CITY SPENDING AND LIVERPOOL SPENDING OVER THE SAME PERIOD: €333,890 OR £275,488

Y'all should shame fi true if unu don't win a quadruple...but shamer still fi lose to Sunderland.

Now sir, how can you in all seriousness present a table of the most expensive transfers in Liverpool history by year and call that evidence? Really?

I assumed you could identify the players bought in the same year and do simple arithmetic...guess not

P.S. from 1992 till the present time...Liverfool has the third highest net spending on players...and have zero league titles to show for it...not my fault unnuh penny wise and pound foolish

[Karl]

it says that they have no depth as half of their key players are suspended or injured and the second string not ready to step up.

I hear that but the set of players that took the field - were defeated before they first whistle blew. They just up and never tried!!!

[Paul Marin]

They tried in the first 10 minutes, but they were simply not of enough quality.
