It is true pal, we rarely rival them for transfers and their recruitment has been top. Undoubtedly they've spent a lot of money, we've just spent a lot more, that's factual.
Since pep and klopp have come over we've bought ten £50+mil players (including haaland) , they've bought three. You can't get too bogged down in transfer fees as at end of the day when city come knocking teams add 20/30% on to the fee. It's harder for us to get a good deal.
But f***ing hell both their left backs total £20mil. Whilst for £50mil ours played the role of team jester and is now locked up. I do admire their recruitment at times and there's definitely something to admire there.
