I genuinely thought them Slot comments was a joke when someone mentioned them last night. Fuck me. As others have said, it is how you spend and spread that money. He doesn't look to have spent his well so far. Why does nobody pull managers up on this lie about teams having BIGGER squads. Every team can only have 25 players. The squad size is the same for all. You can then talk about better depth but you cannot say any side has a bigger squad, nonsense.
What I would love to see by someone, somewhere, is a discussion around what an achievement our 4 in a row was, when Liverpool, who was comfortable champions, then spent an absolute fortune are now struggling and looking unlikely at retaining it. We won it 4 bastard times, with them pressures of champions, with injuries, all whilst winning other pots along the way too. It also debunks the myth of our achievements are bought, which are lazy to begin with, but Liverpool can be added to the list of United and Chelsea of spending hundreds of millions and seeing nothing for it. I just wish it wasn't Arsenal ready to take advantage, can't have it all though.
