And value for money...I'm not taking about 22/23 , go back more and show me the difference in transfer paid and wages

19/20 - Liverpool £324m to Utd's £284m. 18/19 - Liverpool's £310m to Utd's £332m. Broadly speaking Liverpool have been spending as much as Utd on wages for the last 7/8 years. I'm not too sure that it changes the point I was making though. Any side spending big on wages will struggle to shift players that don't work out.I'm not taking about 22/23 , go back more and show me the difference in transfer paid and wages

In fact you highlighting how much Utd have wasted is my point. Until that changes you'll struggle to sell well because nobody is buying unsuccessful players on big contracts. If Chiesa doesn't work out for Liverpool, we'll almost certainly be paying him off or he'll be sat at the club until his contract is up. That's just how these things work.
As I said earlier, I accept that they've employed football people to run the football side of the club. Whether that results in improvements, only time will tell.That's why the optimism is because now with ineos and with proper football people doing deals
Chiesa was £10m that's a small risk for big reward, unlike United's dealings of the past
Anyway I'll stop here time will tell , it's not quick fix
Absolutely. As a Brentford supporter it's a weird moment given how integral we were to his career and he was to our success.350k a week for Toney, dont think any premier side would have offered him that
