Exactly. Anyone would think they had never even heard of the par league.

So they are that far behind but they wont be once he's spent?

They are already the third highest spenders in Premier League history, behind Chelsea and City. What makes him think he can do better than every other @#%&! they've had over the past 20 years?

Bearing in mind that Joe Allen at £15m, Fabio Borini at £10m and Oussama Assadi at £3m were three of his signings attempting to close that gap I'm not entirely convinced that his transfer nous is going to be good enough to close the gap if I'm perfectly honest

I thought the writing in the middle part left something to be desired if I'm honest, but bad rep worthy? Really?

:shakehead:
Did anyone at the Press Conference have the balls to remind him that their £35million striker is still currently on loan at West Ham??
Playing the pauper card after all the millions Benitez & Dalglish have wasted on utter dross. What a colossal #@&%!.

Hernandez (who changed the game at Villa Park) cost United £6million.
Hardly a grotesquely overpriced Squad player that the likes of Liverpool can't compete with.
Murdering @#%&!s.

I'd love to be able to talk myself out of trouble like big brendan. Yes I was drink driving, but you could argue all day that if I didn't drink, I wouldn't be drink driving would I?

Unbelievable isn't it. Trying to make out they've got no money and they all just sit there lapping it up. They've squandered £#%&!ing vast amounts ffs

They went 2-0 down to Villa, made changes, and then went 3-0 down to Villa.

"Maybe if Inzaghi wasn't playing in 2007 we'd be 6 times European Champions"

"Maybe if Drogba hadn't scored in last year's FA Cup Final we'd have won that"

"Maybe if United hadn't got more points than us we'd have won the league in 2009"

Are what I imagine he would have gone on to say had he chose to continue along the same thread.

Already grown into the Liverpool delusion after 6 months in charge, some achievement. They must really love him.

Six months in the job and he's already in "if my auntie had balls" territory.

The graveyard of ambition.
