    you can spend £59 million on a player then spend another £100 million on other players. so the another doesn't mean you spent that amount in the first place?

    So how do you deduce that I'm bitter/stupid because Utd spent "around £250m"?

    It ain't my dosh and if it was you and me wouldn't be having this conversation unless you were sitting next to me on a nice beach in somewhere tropical.<ok>

    So where do you obtain your information Diego?, maybe from the Glazers or the club?

    Others like my good self rely on media outlets and the vast majority of those say its somewhere between £250m and £300m, of course I welcome any evidence to the contrary you might have?

    Klopp and Guardiola have positive records against Mourinho.

    Mourinho has only won 4 out of 21 games against the two combined.

    Portuguese Tony Pulis with £££.

    So you have nothing to fear and can continue your dominance over United. Sorted!

    So, conceivably he may not win 4 of his games this season then?

    Depends how long he lasts. It took him until 21st of November to win 4 league games last season. It took Van Gaal until 20th of September.

    So basically the vast majority are in agreement its in around or in excess of £250m.

    Cheers Diego.<ok>

    Be interesting to see what each manager is going to be given to spend improving their squads.

    well considering the disparity in income and more importantly profits i would be amazed if Klopp gets more - not even sure he wants LVG type money anyway by the 2 signings so far

    A lot of straw clutching going on. All you've done is highlight why Liverpool fans simply don't get what winning the league is all about.

    As for the tony pulis comment, has he won the league? Did you ever watch Mourinho's Real Madrid side play? I think ppl like to believe the stereotype of Mourinho but deep down they know he's a better, more versatile manager than they want to admit publicly.

    Since Liverpool last won the FA Cup they've spent £607m gross and £211m net.

    To be fair they have also won a Coca Cola Cup in the meantime.

    Mega!

    In the same period of time United have spent £597m gross and £301.75m net. They've only managed to win 5 league titles, 1 FA Cup and 1 European Cup for the extra £90m net spend (I'm assuming we're working on net spend as it's less embarrassing for Liverpool).

    Shame!
