But surely with all the self pity they crave incidents like this should be sustenance for them.

I really hope Liverpool fans get taken down a peg this season. They're insufferable at the moment. Boom bust cycle is more apt than ever.
How fecking great would that be? Biggest boom peak in decades, the bust will be delightful.
I have to laugh at United fans talking about our spending all the time now... while they spend most money back in 90s and early 00s.... but nevermind that
The fact they collectively ignore that we had always had to sell our best players and get shitloads for them... and basically start over after each major sale(s)... They really have no other thing going on against us now than the fact we have most expensive defender and most expensive GK...
Well yeah we do have them, but we also have third most highest sale in history of football with Coutinho to date...
The highest fee they received post Ronaldo was for Ángel Di María, but other than that they mostly always buy to improve their squad, NOT TO REPLACE top class players they sell... this is the one thing most United bitter fans can´t really see or understand
by comparing the 5 highest ever fees received we have (mostly had to) sold: Coutinho (2018), Suarez (2014), Torres (2011), Sterling (2015), Alonso (2009) together for £346 million.
United´s 5 highest ever received fees were for: Ronaldo (2009), Di María (2015), Beckham (2003), Schneiderlin (2017), Depay (2017) together for £188,8 milion.
If you compare how long it took for them to collect 5 highest fees in their history... (6 years more to be precise) and what is the difference (not counting the inflation cause it would have been even higher) - £157,2 milion. You have to see in 9 years we made almost double the amount of money United made in 14 years selling the same amount of players...
THAT IS WHY WE AS A CLUB CAN AFFORD TO BUY THE WORLD´S MOST EXPENSIVE PLAYERS, BECAUSE WE NEEDED TO REPLACE THOSE WHO LEFT FOR WORLD RECORD FEES. BECAUSE WE MAKE A LOT OF MONEY BY SELLING + ALSO RECIEVING MONEY AS DO ALL THE CLUBS WHO ARE IN CL FINAL AND PL.
Can United fans reading this finally get it in to their heads
thanks a lot.

Ex- Liverpool players go on to bigger & better things, for ex- United players, invariably, the only way is down.
Exactly, stepping stone club is all they are.
This, in a nutshell.
It's odd that such a sense of satisfaction from the Liverpool fans on this site is seemingly coming from the fact that Liverpool sell players just as they are coming into their prime for big money, whereas United tend to sell well afterwards for comparative peanuts, or have them retire at the club.
Clearly the approach preferred by Liverpool isn't exactly winning them trophies... Excellent net spend though
I didn't know that the Channel tunnel went all the way upto Newcastle.
Liverpool fans like to go on about net spend, yet in the years from 1992-2014(until the Mata transfer that January), Liverpool had a higher net spend in that period than United.
That man has such an obvious MO of turning the fans against the board so that no blame ever attaches to him, it's breathtaking that the audience never seem to spot it. He seems to do it at every club.
Mind you, Ashley was pretty much ready made for him. Maybe that's why he went there?
Can you quote your source please as I am a bit of a doubter - many thanks.
We used a lot of home grown talent.
So did Liverpool. Fowler, Owen, McManaman, Matteo, Carragher, Redknapp?, Gerrard, Warnock,...
Spearing!
In a nutshell, sadly. No one in club football has more on sales than FSG since they took over.
Charlie Adam: Liverpool 'one or two players from winning Premier League'
The last time there was this level of optimism, it reminds me of this pre-season they had:
They finished 6th.
Their level of delusion knows no bounds. They finished fourth and 25 points behind City. Add in a few high profile signings and a good set of pre-season results and they've begun to peak in their boom-bust cycle.

Hate how they type like they speak.
Well, minus the phlegm and the screeching but you hear it vaguely.
I joined to say thanks for these threads. I found them the season Liverpool spunked a fortune on Andy Carroll and co and have been an avid reader since. Here's hoping for another classic year!
