LFC: We've spent £20 Million this summer

I worry about Rafa. He come here to do a job and compete with Utd Arsenal and Chelsea, how can he with one hand tied behind his back. We are now further away from winning the league than ever about as far away as a new stadium. This must be like De ja vu for Rafa and we know what happens next.

A very good point, but all credit to Rafa who hasn't stopped fighting to get as much control as he can out of the situation.

If he wasn't such a scrapper I'd say the owners would have left him looking like this:

He'd have to buy that rope himself, too :

Sounds like he is the UK puppet for those two fat bas**rds.

Massive thumbs up for the suggestion of egging them next time they fly over on club expenses. DOOOOOO IT!

Is it true we didn't pay the full fee up front for Aquilani anyway? I heard that it was only £5m up front and the rest is over a number of years in instalments??

Purslow is the new company man.

He who pays his salary makes the rules.

From times of despair, can come the GREATEST VICTORIES, read that somewhere recently and it sounds good.. and you never know. If any club can bring something out of the mess were in its US. Fight on Redmen, and never give in to these tw*ts.

Double edged sword success. If we succeed they will make more money and steal more money. If we fail they will spend even less and put Rafa under even more pressure.

Maybe they meant 'We've spent £20 million this summer on Silva'.

No?

Lots of contract extensions. All costs a lot of money.

But still not sure what he's trying to say here, and whether or not Rafa had a transfer budget or not.
