Wow Liverpool must have a lot of money to waste, £55 million on two (Carrol and Henderson) prospects is a hell of a gamble.
And yes English players are way overpriced, £17m for Phil Jones, £24m for Bent, who we bought for £16.5m and sold for £12m, £24m for Lescott. I can only imagine what it would cost to buy Leighton Baines in this ridiculous climate.
On another topic, figures today revealed the wage expenditure for all PL clubs has risen to a staggering 68% of total revenue. Manchester City actually managed to exceed their total revenue with their wage expenditure alone (107
. There's only so long you can keeping upping that ante by milking the fans and I for one would love to see a wage cap introduced alongside UEFA's financial fair play rules being introduced in the 2012-13 season. I hope it fucks man city up the arse and they go out of business and are never heard of again, not that I'm bitter.
