Just read that first linked article. Obviously written by a Scouser. He's had a few hours spare and felt the need to justify why Liverpool didn't win the league.The TTTPI is good in that it gives a vague idea of what a transfer value is like across many years/decades.
However with anything related to Liverpool, you have to be wary of the story getting in the way of facts.
Eg Aguero figure on that Twitter, isn’t the same as on other info from Tomkins in May 19
https://tomkinstimes.com/2019/05/ma...ding-a-factual-transfer-price-index-analysis/ 130m cf 108m
Or also from May 19
https://tomkinstimes.com/transfer-price-index-top-100-premier-league-buys-after-inflation/
Aguero 9th cf 16th
Also look at Carroll (Liverpool)
So either the Twitter guy has tweaked the list,or Tomkins gives different data out...
Talk about agendas, he hates us with a passion. To summarise:
1. We turned the FA cup into a farce (maybe they could have put a full side out against wolves, made their way to the final and prevented a farce).
2. Using De Bruyne costing more than VVD as an example to justify his pointless tables.
3. Snide little digs like "bought with the Torres money" or "bought with the coutinho money" (net spend winners every year).
4. Let's go back to 2008 when City were first financially doped.
5. If large-scale cheating has kept other teams out of the Champions League spots or stopped them winning title those clubs have been massively financially harmed in the process. ( He seems to forget how much European revenues were lost when his beloved team were responsible for English clubs being banned).
6. An easy opportunity to play City bingo, all the usual suspects are there:
Financial doping, human rights issues, direct funding by a sovereign state etc
7. Linking to an article by Ewan fucking McKenna!
Do yourselves a favour and ignore the shite written by the deluded Scouse prick!
