Nice try.

We had a threadbare squad last season, one of the smallest in the league, we have CL footy this season and needed a bigger squad end of.

What was yooniteds excuse for spending almost £200m?

Only the league and fa cup to play in and a CL squad full of maga money left sided players.

 

Hypocrites why? In what way are they not making history.

 

Almost 200million? Eh?

150million almost you mean. And we lost what, 11 players over the summer? Seems logical that with so many outgoings we would need to spend quite a lot.

 

Made history buying the most expensive player in English football, taking the honour from fellow sugar daddy club Chelsea.

 

Fair point, I think the 4-0 loss to MK Dons was a stand out moment in your clubs history

 

Yes give the players the credit they deserve not just #moyesmakeshistory and #vangaalmakeshistory

 

At least we didnt take your record away from you.

Highest ever fee paid for an english player. Ever.

 

I suppose it is in a way. Half the teams now been sold or loaned.

 

So Falcao's "loan" for 24m doesn't count?

£170.5m, and you told us this time last season that yoonited were champions and were the best squad in the prem.

 

You still have highest ever wages paid to an English player. Ever.

 

As it stands the ponytail has won more in the English game than your manager and his signings.

The mighty league cup.

 

We were champions and quite clearly had the best squad in 2012/13. Bring up the table amd i will explain why.

Are we including wages too? Your spendings a whope lot higher. Very comparable to ours...

Tell me page, whats liverpools revenue like? Ours is insane so big spending is of no concern. Is yours like that? Could you spend without selling a 65million player each year?

 

As soon as one wins a penalty that will change.

Penalty > milk cup

 

Right can we remind ourselves that "rival watch" is supposed to be about what's new or what result our rivals get

Not an fn boring samey pissing contest?

This thread is as dull as a 0-0 with burnley

 

Don't touch this posts lads, the level of #delusion is #epic

 

Of course we could spend, Rodgers had 60+m to spend pre Suarez departing.

As for your sooper dooper squad, they got carried by 3 or 4 good players during transitional seasons for City and Chelsea.

 

You won the CL on penalties.

 

The table is far from settled yet, but the results next weekend almost look like they were planned to be a whole weekend of 6 pointers based on table position.

I count 7 matches that in the early, unsettled table look like 6 pointer games where teams are playing rivals.
(no I don't really think Swansea vs Chelsea is a 6 pointer in the grand scheme of things... but in the tables current look it is)


Arsenal Vs Man City - Two teams expected to finish top 4.
Chelsea Vs Swansea - 1st and 2nd in league at the moment
Cry Pal Vs Burn - Bottom two teams in league at the moment
West Brom Vs Everton - 17th and 18th - two bottom of the table neighbours.
Liverpool Vs Villa - 3rd vs 5th
Utd Vs QPR - QPR are just two places above United in the lower mid-table.
Hull Vs Ham - 9th and 11th - two places apart.


It's almost like there are Lizardmen who planned the season out so that this would be the ultimate 6 pointer weekend.

 

Oh yeh we did. Like old fashioned european cups they dont count?
