Mourinho says Liverpool MUST win the league

Fair comments considering Klopp has spent £416M and counting since becoming Liverpool manager.

But has Jose himself forgotten that in a shorter time span at United, he has spent £400M on new recruits? United’s net spend is also far higher in the same time, yet he has failed to win or even compete for the league with United so far.

Strange comments when you consider that he refused to answer whether or not United could compete themselves...

Doesn't matter how you fund it really.

End of the day Utd have a more expensive squad (and I suspect Liverpool will be selling a few before deadline day) and a bigger wage bill. It's just the normal Mourinho bollox as per.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

It does.

Imagine two men went to buy the latest Playstation or X-Box and one had enough money but the other had to sell his TV in order to make the purchase, who would you say has it worse?

United can add layers to the existing squad whereas Klopp has had to let go off key assets in order to fund his - assets that will need replacing.

Whats the point of buying a console without a TV?

Not bothered about net spend personally, I think it's bollox.

Clubs have income and expenditure - Fin.

What does matter is how much a squad costs and what they get paid and Utd are comfortably ahead in both which kind of blows his nonsense out of the water.

It doesn't matter in footballing terms, but when assessing managers, it's wholly relevant for the obvious reason that some managers can only operate on a sell to buy basis.

Were not operating on a sell to buy policy any more than anyone else in the Prem. Either way its moot as Jose has a vastly more expensive squad on a lot higher wages.

He's just crying as he does in his third season. Got a facking potato farm on his shoulder.

The net figures say the opposite.

No its doesnt. It just says that we turn over other clubs and that increases our overall income. I dont know why I have to keep saying this but there is not a petty cash tin marked 'transfers' and some sh!tty excel spreadsheet.

Income from transfers is no more relevant than tv money or match day revenue. Its just income.

That analogy doesn't work because it's not just income in the equation. You're also factoring in the loss of your player.

I don't think the names on the hoardings have quite the same impact.

It's not an analogy, it's just a fact. You could maybe make a case for someone like Coutinho but you cant reasonably start citing the loss of players that we don't even want
